	Las Vegas Weekly: Noise
		Alternative hip-hop began in the late-'80s as an answer to the rap music of bands like Public Enemy and N.W.A. More musically and lyrically diverse, groups such as De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest and Pharcyde incorporated jazz, pop, reggae and other influences into rap's already stale mix of funk and soul.
		Alternative hip-hop also broadened rap's listening demographic, attracting fans of the then-growing world of alternative rock, a trend that continues to this day.
		And instead of the anger and menace that rap expressed, alternative hip-hop articulated messages of peace and love or discussed serious issues like date rape or rap's use of a particular racial epithet.
