　　Chap hop是什么音乐?患有强迫症的小伙伴们看着这个词是不是很纠结，是hip hop?是rap?我们现在就来一探究竟。

　　Chap hop is a bizarre combination of the strong beat and rhythms associated with rap music, but with lyrics featuring such stereotypically upper-class turns of phrase as nincompoop ("foolish person") and adverbs like frightfully and awfully. Delivering their performance in the received pronunciation with an upper-class affectation, chap-hop musicians (sometimes described as chap-hoppers), turn themselves out in bowler hats, tweed suits or stripey blazers, sport handle-bar moustaches, brandish pipes, and often accompany themselves by strumming on the banjolele, a guitar-like instrument which is a cross between a banjo and a ukelele.

　　Chap Hop音乐将有力的节拍和说唱乐节奏奇妙地组合在一起，它的歌词具有典型的上层社会风格，比如nincompoop(愚蠢的人)、副词frightfully和awfully。Chap-hop音乐家们在表演时，使用英国上层社会的标准发音，戴着圆顶硬礼帽、穿着花呢套装或条纹宽松运动外衣，炫耀着自己的钳柄小胡子，挥舞着自己的烟管，而且经常还一边弹奏着班卓莱利琴，一种类似于吉他的既像班卓琴又似尤克莱利琴的乐器。

　　Two leading exponents of the genre are Professor Elemental and Mr. B The Gentleman Rhymer, other names include Poplock Holmes & DJ WattsOn.
