StatSocial’s Digital Tribes is a new consumer segmentation model with a social psychographic twist.
Digital Tribes are powered by StatSocial’s Silhouette, the industry’s most advanced Audience Intelligence Platform. Our unique technology enables us to make sense of the billions of unstructured earned and social web interactions that go on each day — allowing you to dive deep into nearly any audience you can imagine.
Using billions of inputs for over 120 million U.S. consumers, we have segmented naturally occurring populations into 100 distinct Digital Tribes.
This entry is a deeper dive into the tribe we call “21st Century Hip Hop.”

PERSONALITY TRAITS —21st Century Hip Hop
In psychology, the Big 5 personality traits describe a popularly-employed taxonomy that breaks down human personalities into five, broad, over-arching categories.
IBM Watson™ employs this model, and the five traits that give it its name — Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism — as the umbrella categories under which numerous, more specific personality traits can be found.

Anger, as a personality trait, does not necessarily describe one who is irrational or out of control. It describes one who is fiery and passionate, and willing to defend the people and beliefs that mean most to them.
This tribe averages in the 82.10th percentile for exhibiting this trait.
