I would have loved it if he was wearing that leopard print hat to the concert

[@nameistaken]

I still quote that "oh they're doing a little play...order in the court" line because it just makes me giggle everytime. The fact you know exactly what song it is helps too

[@zippagraphics]

They forgot the part where every hip hop show in Portland practically has a police barricade that you have to go through.

[@j-boogiebrown9961]

I know a lot of people just like this guy. I bought my first Hip hop single in 1985, when I was 8, and for the next 10 or 12 years I was on my own, surrounded by friends who were into Indie/Metal/Dance music. Then, when Hip hop went mainstream, they all stared buying it, and using Hip hop slang. The funny thing is, the quality of the music started dropping dramatically around that time, so they missed the good stuff.

[@gorillaguerillaDK]

I was sold when a cousin of mine played rappers delight for me when I visited them at Christmas 1979! But growing up in Scandinavia and at the same time as I started discovering this new music phenomenon, moving from the Capital to a small isolated rather "conservative" coastal community where you were either into pop/disco or hard rock didn't exactly help me in getting accepted, not even in the early 80's where there were a short fad with some parts of Hip Hop music being more popular. So I think I have a sense of what you're talking about! 😂😜

[@gorillaguerillaDK]

sclapione No it wasn't - the earliest you come to Hip Hop going mainstream was in 1986 when Run DMC collaborated with Aerosmith on Walk This Way. Up til then you don't find a single Hip Hop track that made it to the top100 billboard of the year.... Beastie Boys made the list the year after - and Tone Loc had two entries in 1989 It wasn't until up in the 90's you could find much more than a single Hip Hop track on the billboard of the year. None of the most iconic tracks from early on made it to the top100...

[@Karrthus]

Why isn't KRS-One mentioned in the learning? He's the grandmaster of Hip Hop.

[@TheOpenRhodes]

Totally! I often have Sound of Da Police on repeat. FYI - I have an 80s/90s East Coast playlist here; kzbin.info/aero/PL3Qqqf_88PvWIlXY7r2pSse5RCpWTboTl

[@muchomusiclibre]

+Margarita, Program Eater Do you have Ol Dirty Black Man on that list?

[@gorillaguerillaDK]

+muchomusiclibre I was wondering the same thing, don't get me wrong, KRS-ONE is cool and shit and has made an impact, but so many others who's been way more influential to the entire culture!

[@j-boogiebrown9961]

He made some great music, no doubt, but he also made the creepy song '13 and good', in which he boasts about fucking a 13-year-old, when he was about 25. He also tarnished his legacy last year, when he said he didn't give a fuck about the victims of paedophile Afrika Bambaataa. Oh, and there's a video on here, of a recorded phonecall he had with a white Hip hop promoter, in which he said, "I love beating up white boys".

[@ERICROJO156]

I'm hip-hop illiterate. What happened in New York, 1977? did hip-hop happen?

[@j-boogiebrown9961]

It actually started in 1973.

[@gorillaguerillaDK]

Hip Hop has its musical roots in Bronx, NY in 1973 with DJ Kool Herc, mixing breakbeats from soul, disco and especially from funk tracks. If I recall correctly, the term was first phrased by Robert Wiggins aka 'Cowboy', from Grand Master Flash and the Furious Five and the first one to popularize the phrase was Afrika Bambaataa! In 1977 there was a big black-out in NY and a lot of looting, especially from electronic stores and that made the DJ equipment needed a little more accesable and from there the culture just grew in all directions! With it came also new ways of expressing yourself, through street art, dancing etc... A lot if it inspired by older cultural pnenomenoms, primarily from the poor communities of immigrants and people of African-American heritage. The culture was very much party oriented, but the disparity of the areas it originated in couldn't be contained and it became just as much an outlet for more political related messages. This is as short as I can do it.....
