Apache (DJ Booblikon remix): Bongo Band vs Sugarhill

[@FlasHouseMob]

Now THIS is the Hip Hop I came up on in Philly back in the day.. breakbeats, breakdancing on cardboard in the street, pop-n-lock, tagging, freestyling, spinning on vinyls, and the OG streetwear; the whole 9. Hip hop is a culture and lifestyle that breaks barriers and builds communities and is the origin of so many things we enjoy and love today. Long live hip hop 🙌🏽

[@krg1965]

Confessing your comment brought a tear to this guy's eye - everything coming up from the streets, before big companies rode the wave. Damn, they were good days and your comment makes me recall the excitement of hearing my local station having a weekly one hour (!) "electro" show which introduced me to hip hop in my room in the midlands of England. Then a couple years later, going to see Bambaataa at a local club, and seeing for the first time, two local crews challenging each other on the dancefloor. You're so right - hip hop is a culture and a powerful force. Yeah, long live hip hop - all crews across the oceans.

So many memories are being stlrred by looking at this. NYC was, is the place to be! But back then no cellphone, no internet, no tictok, just mixed tapes circulating of the new young up and coming Mc's, rap battles,breakdancing, graffiti, I was 13 in 1980, and all this is history and I'm glad I was there! ROCK THE BELLS!

[@booblikon]

I turned 13 in 1980 also! I have vivid recollections of hearing rap on the radio and my older brother getting records by Kurtis Blow and Blowfly. And of course who can forget hearing "Rapper's Delight", it was like a shot heard round the world.

[@raymondlin8728]

WORD!!

[@larrymitchell692]

Yo real memories in nyc I was 18 in 1980 ,it felt like that whole era was one big party. Loved it!!!

[@indigojones8]

I was an 8 year old white girl in Orlando in 1980, but I remember discovering the rap/hip hop station on AM radio a couple years later. Watching this video, I was reminded how sad I was that there wasn't the same fantastic graffiti in 2000 when I eventually moved to NYC. I remember this song, among others, though.

APACHE is one of those definitive 70's-80's Hip Hop breaks. Your video captured the feeling of growing up in NYC during the embryo stage of Hip Hop. Much respect.

[@Lefab3470]

In my souvenirs, Michael Viners bongo band went unnoticed by most part of people and world of music with Apache,except by people of beginning breakdance and hip hop who made it mythical and a founding root...Today even if you dont like street music,you know this title but unhapilly these musicians are still unknown faces!

The five elements

[@makeuthink2120]

Graffiti isn't one of them.

[@jakgd]

​@@makeuthink2120are 4, and graffiti is part of them. MC, DJ, Break/Rock, and Graffiti.

[@makeuthink2120]

@@jakgd Graffiti does not come from hip hop. Even though people have been writing their names or words on walls for a long time, the graffiti "culture" started in northern manhattan in the late 60's. Graffiti does not need Hip Hop to exist.

[@jakgd]

​@@makeuthink2120 I know the beginning of graffiti and the people that were involved. It's true, graffiti wasn''t part of hip hop in the very late 60's and early/mids 70's. But we know the big impact that graffiti had back in the day. Once hip hop born, graffiti was adopted as 1 of the 4 elements of hip hop. It was pure street cultural elements. As break/rock that wasn't part of hip hop at the beginning. It's not a hidden thing that the first writers were hippies or people that just were disconnected from anything that could be connected to hip hop, cause it wasn't exist yet. At the end of the day... For me all this represent a good and real past, not the present. The kids of today and the youth are not interested in this anymore. It's a time that is gone.

[@makeuthink2120]

@@jakgd Some people would disagree with you if you say that break/rock(b boying) wasn't a part of hip-hop in the beginning because if the dancing was ever being done to music that music would've been the same music the dj's would play. Also, the "defenders" of hip-hop will always say that hip-hop came from the "FBA's"(Foundational Black Artists). If graffiit is an element of hip-hop then who are the "FBA's" of graffiti? Cornbread? Yes, he was writing in Philadelphia around '67, and probably before some of the first official writers in NY, but he had NO influence with the early writers in NY. Not one NY writer ever started writing because of Cornbread. The NY scene was independent of Philadelphia. Though the Bronx is rightfully seen as the birthplace of hip-hop, when it comes to graffiti, Phase 2 said that the Bronx style was influenced by the Manhattan and Brooklyn styles.
