The main features of hip hop are rap music, beat boxing, break dancing and many other things. It's a whole new culture which started off hip hop slang and hip hop clothes and music as well.

    Hip hop clothes have a unique style of dress introduced by the African-American mostly living in Los Angles and New York streets. It is the expression of the hip hop culture and is very famous amongst the youngsters. It is one of the major fashion industries all around the world, mainly due to so many rapper stars.

    Many brands have created hip hop sports wear which are very famous, these include Adidas too. Track suits, leather bomber jackets, sneakers, caps and many other things have been introduced. A lot of new hip hop hair cuts also have come in to fashion due to the celebrities bringing in a new culture amongst youngsters.

    Along with hip hop clothes which are usually baggy and casual, many hip hop accessories have been introduced too.

    In the first paragraph of this answer you wrote "mostly African American." It was ALL African American. No other culture or race played a part in the introduction of the hip hop culture. Other races exploited it but it was introduced by African Americans ONLY. Please don't write about what you don't know.
