Abstract
In this project, I created a graph of old-school hip-hop collaborations that have connected with each other to produce and to influence the hip hop culture. The main idea is to find connections between the east coast and west coast artists to create a graph of a wide variety of relationships of who worked with who using mathematical concepts of graph theory in discrete mathematics. Coding was also utilized to create the graph. Hip hop is a culture as well as a genre of music that has brought many people together starting from the early 1970's to present day. Hip hop has influenced so many people in ways that would help not only bring people together but to support communities that have faced intense impacts of drugs, crime, poverty and many other environmental issues. There are many artists throughout hip hop history that have implemented hip hop in important ways. One of the ways includes displaying significant messages through music and song writing, while the other is through building communities using a hip-hop collaborative system. In the project, you'll also find key tools used to build the graph and important information on the Python coding language. This project will also help you get a sense of how hip-hop relationships can be analyzed in many different formats and why it is important to build a network through hip-hop and coding using tools.
