Wu Tang Clan and Shakespeare



In this TEDx talk, Akala examines the correlation between hip-hop and "Shakespeare" and how these two seemingly different genres of language have become the custodians of both language and knowledge.

Please answer the following questions:

            1.)   What is iambic pentameter based on?
            2.)   What is Hip-Hop short for?   What is its word derivation?
            3.)   What are the five elements of hip-hop?
            4.)   How are hip-hop artists similar to the Shakespeare regarding their position of being custodians                       of language and knowledge?
