Answer 2

Norichika is researching for a post about the cultural significance of hip-hop music. Which is the most reliable source for his research?

The correct answer is, A university study about hip-hop music and society.

• A university study is the most complete source of information for academic purposes. A research helps us to investigate and experiment for the purpose of interpreting facts that can lead us to new ones. As it can be seen, a research solves serious inquires that should be supported with revised theories. In the other options, only narrow perceptions would guide Norichika’s research and for this reason fall short to support her task. A personal blog would not help her to find the relation of hip-hop and its cultural significance.
