Kid Capri on the 1's and 2's (Full Set) @ Prospect Park (Brooklyn), NYC

[@mrcolemr]

Hip Hop will never die because our classics are timeless.

[@DJUndershep]

I'm cracking up at the youngsters on this thread that are failing to give props to Kid Capri. This brother is a true OG in NYC Hip Hop - a real DJ. The set is just a medley of old-school joints. He's doing what he is excellent at doing - getting the crowd charged up. Big Up the the Kiiiiiiiiiid Capri!

[@djmontecarlotv]

Amen!!! This one person said "omg he really knows his old school rap"! lmao

[@jeannettefernandez5085]

For real tho' Rick...you're right! Kid Capri, Grandmaster Flash, Jazzy Jeff and JMJ, just to name a few, paved the way for these youngsters today. Mad props to the old school OG DJ's!!!

[@wparch]

FOH... nobody said that.... lol ...Ion't even wanna scroll down and look for the comment!!!

[@psimmy73]

this is why I fell in love with hip hop

[@thedriza297]

psimmy73 un fall in love with it because its been wack for a while now.

[@taurusnyy]

If you cant name or heard these songs before than you dont know old school hip hop- straight up.

[@thedriza297]

tony almeda there you go straight up he said

[@feelgoodmusic7853]

this was not for a party this was a performance. Kid Capri can do both very well!!!! not too many people can rock a 20 minute set like that.

[@wadeoradio]

He's the king of these kind of sets.

[@at7828]

this is off the hook! I grew up in the 80s/90s in Toronto. This takes me back to those days spending hours inside records stores looking at all the vinyl, making mixed tapes etc. So nostalgic. Enough respect to Kid Capri!

[@dlouis81076]

The feeling of rocking a crowd is the greatest feeling on earth for true Djs.

[@VanHalenDrummer]

So much hype from the old school heads. LOVE IT! This is what hip hop is about: the beats, the rhymes, and the reason.

[@BoChosen]

The Culture is to be respected... Legend at work...

[@ELBOOGIE42]

1 thing I must say is watch how he study's the crowd. Something most DJ's (show Dj's) don't do. KC is a legend!

[@YOCEEOOH]

+elvin soanes Elvin, what up this is David Wright. Tell tish to call me lost the number....hope all is well with the fam...

[@creamycookie69]

I loved his performance!! He shows so much personality!!!I love kid!!!!

[@DJOTCUTS]

i been following Kid since 91, and actually he's doing what he's always done, people expect Kid to talk, it's what he's known for, he is a master at giving the crowd the "OH Shit" factor, but there's a few recent vids where he is straight mixing and not talking at all and its on point...he still got skills believe it!

[@check2000]

No dj is better on the mic than him

[@3rd_eyeairbrush]

He's a true dj look at the way he controls the crowd a true legend

[@zacdunford3663]

Pretty sad most these people commenting to dont know how this game got started. No jokes that Jazy jeff is dope.... so are a lot out there but Kid Capri was always nasty on the decks. Every DJ has there own way but the result is always the same goal. To many dj's sound the same these day. Same mixing, same music, same lame mic sayings.... Kid capri was always original and kept the party hyped. Respect to Kid Capri, Jazzy Jeff, and hundreds more original DJ's... Middle finger to the haters that all look and sound the same.

[@robertwolfeii615]

No I hear you sir. I originaly learned my style from radio dj Mr. Majic from bls and Dj Red Alert Kiss 💋 fm. Kid Capri was around back in those days too. If I am correct he was on wbls. This is when NYC was pretty much the only city having mix shows in the USA. Good memories.

[@dagrfx]

Truth! I went to a show in the 90's and he put on a record and turn his back to dig for records for about 2mins. Then, switch the song and turned his back again for another 2 mins. Then he asked the crowd if they're ready. Then he brings out a stack of about 30-40 records for the left turntable and 30-40 records for the right turntable and WENT OOOOFFFFF just like this does in this video track after track no skips and all on beat! Not to mention - no hype man!

[@michaelszczys8316]

That’s it, you need about 30 -40 that match this beat and then 30- 40 that match that beat and then go to town, start blending so they all line up and the beat goes on

[@Jawwaad1111]

People complain about Capri using a laptop and such but Capri has been doing this since almost the beginning. He's just changed with the times but he still is one of the top DJ's of all time. He was doing this before laptops and Ipods, so give respect where respect is do. He made a name for himself before this era of DJing.

[@robertwolfeii615]

Yeah I remember the 80s and he was cutting, scratching, mixing with 2 turntables and only a mixer.

[@kayl2141]

He is considered one of Hip Hop's "legendary" DJ's. He didn't get the title by accident people!

[@mayrarosario4002]

Growing up in the 80's in the Bronx, really . wow, throw back. YOU can't never get that back priceless. Dammmmmmm, thanks I agree wit you 100% , Kay L

[@thedriza297]

Kay L im gonna legendary him

[@noahtorres7761]

Really ?

[@daynarobinsonitworksforthi3009]

These sideshowbob ass bums dont know!!!!

[@LJonesW213]

DJ Kid Capri...the Pulse, the Heart, and the Soul of Old School Hip Hop. In the days when a party was a party, Capri took it to the TOP!

[@UNCLEDAD800]

Real story...I seen Kid Capri djaying in Atlantic City, NJ and he tore the club up...i mean back to back hit after hit old school new school...killed it ...he played that Heavy D joint The Overweight Lovers in the House and mixed it with Too Hypie...and two females literally passed out from getting to excited ..crazy night ..respect Kid...best DJ I ever saw..hands down...

[@squirrelsgarden]

I remember seeing Kid Capri live in Cincinnati and he tore the damn club down. Hearing him do his thing live is an amazing experience

[@troopermack]

regardless of vinyl or laptop. If you don't know the music, it doesn't matter! Kid graduated years ago from the vinyl so he can do whatever just as long as he keeps rocking the crowd like only he can!! HE IS A REAL OG BETTER THAN MOST OF THE FAKE NEW CATS!! BELIEVE THAT!!

[@pedrovargas6322]

dammmmn kid u killed it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@victorcalero2422]

I miss these days of music!!!!!!!!

[@carlosfigueroa7949]

kid capri is a GOD on the turntables too.

[@reek1175]

I’m proud to say I remember every song he put on!! I’m also proud to be part of this special age group in hip hop that can’t be duplicated! It’s unfortunate that so many didn’t and/or still don’t get the respect and recognition they deserve! True School forever ✊🏾

[@DJMIZBX]

Kid is what you call a real DJ from the Records to serato.... he's an untouchable pioneer.. and whoever hates on him dont know about what a true dj is...A real DJ doesn't depend on the hits to win the crowd over thats what separates One DJ from Another....Originality

[@williamlatham1338]

Its is bringing tears to my eyes! Real Hip Hop!

[@earllugo9512]

He is a true DJ from day one.

[@turklatasha191]

My favorite DJ of all time! Good times!

[@siriuzbiz6662]

ILL SET!!! Kid Capri in FULL Effect!

[@FreedoMartinaJustice_2007]

yall wanna hear old ish or new ish?! crowd says OLD ISH! Clearly Hip-hop was once much better than it is...but there is also a lot more opportunity for more people to be artists than back then. But back then artists were ALWAYS artists of the greatest caliber. that for me is the difference. Kid Capri...one of the best in Hip-Hop. top 5.

[@telroc1]

Man he is the master with that crowd control. Salute to one of the best to ever do it!!!! The Kid Capri

I watch this set every 6 months just for inspiration. I have since you first loaded this. no one is better at these kind of sets that Kid Capri. Funk Flex is second. Mic work is just as good as turntable work

[@laurieso678]

my mansssssss salutes OG kid capri love the big homie from the heart frfr one. ✊🏼😝💯👑

[@mecca1000]

How's it the same set from '92 when he went all the way to '99 with the joints he was playing?! Everybody want to be a critic but nobody can say his parties don't bounce ..... I've been rocking with Kid Capri since the Skate Key in the Bronx and he never fails to rock every show ..... you can hear the crowd in this video .... that's all the proof right there that he's one of the greatest still doing it!

[@djairalert422]

Kid Capri’s ability to talk to the crowd, while simultaneously dropping songs on point, constantly charging the crowd up, scratching, stopping the music, talking his shit, then going back to the music, that’s a skill in itself right there.. Kid Capri birthed a lot of dj’s with his style, he feels the music, and gives you no choice but to get into it!

[@rickhunter7257]

Great job and love the music!

[@angelmontesjr]

I'm from the west coast seen him live at a Def jam comedy show out here he had it Rockin all Vinyl mad Respect one of the Greatest

[@paulmunkford778]

I miss the 90s dearly, along with that the rnb and hip hop of that time, it is timeless and not to be fucked with,,RIP to my friends who didn't make it

[@joedomenech7138]

I remember every one of those songs

[@29mailliw]

obviously some folks never heard any of his mix tapes the legend can do it all besides turntablism is not just about mixing its about the experience of being creative . mixing is and art no doubt but ask many djs if they can cut mix and scratch many songs within three minutes and still stay within rythum . i bet most would djs today who think they can do better would stumble in a faceoff. the pressure wud be too great. his skills is like a freestyle rapper which most cant even do unless they do like he did which was practice .

[@stirlingpickett5253]

you don't get to this level by not knowing music he's well respected by so many hip hop heads salute Kid Capri

[@06alwilliams]

Kid Capri is mos def a performer and puts on a great show!!!

[@michellecoolidge2295]

I was actually in the building that day and I’m telling you The KID CAPRI is an immortal Iconic Hip Hop Superhero and his timing is timeless this performance is legendary...yo flex please apologize to this Pioneer of this art form so we can all move forward and don’t have to witness another DJ missing on a milk carton 😂

Ay, if you're still serious drop a comment and we'll start dropping names. I remember when most if these records first dropped...not the original samples they used, but the 80's and 90's hip hip tracks that used them

[@djhabibi04]

Much respect man. Thanks a lot!

[@jamalwaters8556]

KID CAPRI KILLED IT!!!!!

[@AntonBilbaeno]

Kid Capri didn't always mix his tracks, back in the day not everyone always mixed every song in their set into the next. When you were carrying around your crates you couldn't just click once and sort it by BPM. A lot of people just did a baby scratch and dropped the next record: "slammin records". He was known for doin this way faster than anyone else at the time. He is just doing what he knows, and what people LOVED (still love).

[@zeffirethedj8480]

Mad set Kid Capri....now thats real hip hop

[@tahirasanders461]

Love him!!! He killl every show ya hear meeeeeeee

[@djsosothemachine9170]

Thank you HipHop

[@melskilove]

SO FREAKING HYPE RIGHT NOW!!!!

[@davekerr4876]

That's a mental set, a frankly bonkers number of tunes crammed into 20min. Sometimes I'd rather hear more than 5-10seconds of tunes but at the same time the buzz created by flipping between tracks so quickly keeps you on your toes!!

[@javel4life]

That's actually exactly what he does he gives something fresh depending upon the crowd and setting

[@djbrizzletrill]

What the song at 6:40

AMAZING!!!!!💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@DJDRACTHEONE]

Awesome Set!!! On both ends good songs and great mic work! Yea he cuts the records quick but that is his style and I am pretty sure people who paid to see him knew what they were getting when they got to the event! I DJ and I hope to have something like he does(not copy his style) but be unique enough where people hate or love me. Kid Capri is a legend in NYC and his style is well known.
