Concert tickets are one of the best gift ideas for hip-hop fans. Look on websites like Ticketmaster.com for hip-hop concerts in your area and send concert tickets to your friend or family member's house. Alternatively, you could give them the tickets in person. However, receiving a gift at your doorstep can be just as exciting. Try to find out who their favorite hip-hop artist is before purchasing tickets or find out if there are any concerts that they want to go to.
If the hip-hop fan you're giving a gift to downloads music online then you might consider giving them an iTunes gift card. iTunes gift cards are available for $15, $25, $50 and $100. Giving an iTunes gift card to a hip-hop fan as a gift will give them the opportunity to listen to their favorite music. However, some music fans listen to CDs instead of iTunes. Find out if the hip-hop fan that you're giving a gift to uses iTunes before purchasing.
If the person you're purchasing a gift for does not have an iPod, then you might consider purchasing one. Ipods can be purchased for as little as $59 from Apple.com. Before giving them the iPod you could preload some of their favorite hip-hop songs onto the Ipod.
Hip-hop t-shirts are another unique gift. T-shirts are relatively inexpensive so you might want to combine a t-shirt with another hip-hop gift idea.
Quality headphones like Bose or Skull Candy units are an excellent gift for hip-hop fans. Giving headphones as a gift will allow a friend or family member to enjoy listening to hip-hop music even more than they already do because of better sound quality provided by high end headphones.
