East Coast Hip Hop is a regional subgenre of Hip Hop music that originated in New York City in the 1970s. It only became a distinct subgenre after artists from other regions of the US emerged with different styles. In contrast to other styles, East Coast Hip Hop music has prioritised complex lyrics for attentive listening rather than beats for dancing.
