Hip hop ringtones add rhythm and attitude to cellular phones. Few musical genres make people want to dance the way hip hop does, and no musical form today is quite as edgy as rap. Most people either love it or hate it, and those who love it can represent their support for the culture by downloading hip hop ringtones to their phones.

Because rap and R&B music relies so heavily on bass and beat, ringtones of these genres tend to be more energetic than other types of rings. The premier hip hop artists write beats and songs that are paradoxically laid back and upbeat at the same time, creating a mood people enjoy. After hearing a cell phone lay down a combination of rhythm and harmony that embodies this mood, hip hop fans are in the perfect mindset in which to answer the phone.
