From Wikipedia
Greek hip hop, is a music genre, also known as the music of the streets derived from the American hip hop culture. There are many sub-genres many times interacting with other types of greek music such as Éntekhno, with many artists of either genres collaborating.
Just as in the US, hip hop is divided into four basic characteristics: DJing (disc jockey), which has advanced greatly recently due to the development of technology. The second one is MCing (master of ceremony), where the people involved in it are called MCs or rappers. The third one is Graffiti, also recently, considering it being an art, graffiti has become a sort of a grey area legally with police many times turning a blind eye to it with events being organised frequently with graffiti at their focus. The fourth and last one is breakdancing.
