Everybody knows what that is... Hyphy (pronounced 'high-fee'; is a style of music and dance associated with San Francisco Bay Area hip hop culture. It began to emerge in early 2000 as a response from Bay Area rappers against commercial hip hop for not acknowledging the Bay for setting trends

evidentially, Hyphy is a style of music and dance associated with Bay Area hip-hop culture. It is distinguished by gritty, pounding rhythms, and in this sense is closely related to crunk music. An individual is said to "get hyphy" when they dance in an overstated and ridiculous manner, similar to Los Angeles-style clowning. The Federation is the best known representative of the style, and their music video "Hyphy" received heavy rotation on MTV in late 2004.
