To My Hip Hop Brothers Kool Herc & Afrika Bambaataa


HIP HOP HISTORY! To My Hip Hop Brothers Kool Herc & Afrika Bambaataa and the rest of the 1st generation of the Hip Hop Culture..We are living in a time of 40 plus years of this culture that was created by young black teens from the Bronx, because only a handful are originally from the South Bronx as stated by the geographic map. From the West, North, East and South Bronx the contribution during the mid 70"s and transformation of Disco where alot of the early dj's who played Disco also became part of this culture in a matter of months not years. Everybody had dj's in the parks everywhere not just N.Y everywhere and it just so happened we changed the game and gave it a name But the tireless discussion by all of who did what 1st and who created this 1st and timelines now being changed, some flyers altered is not good at all. Respectfully the earlier documentary that were filmed in the beginning happened to be the most accurate information back then when we all praised each other. I don"t get it Disco King Mario is not here to defend himself and all of us as elder statement of this Culture 1st Hip Hop generation need to band together in a more efficient way. Not every Hip Hop group was inspired by Kool Herc or Afrika Bambaataa because the next generation after us was too young. Some were inspired by Luvbug Starski, DJHollywood, Pete Dj Jones and the list goes on. There were many guys who were record and crate carriers, what about the early rap promoter, what about the guys who were down and never had a hit song and his story gets No Attention I call them the UNSUNG HIP HOP HEROES. Everybody contributed in the beginning and all the early documentary when those interviews were done are more accurate because those were the real and honest stories. I really don't care who did what anymore because the acknowledgement is not there and at 59 years old I know better .So are we really preserving The Culture or everyone Legacy? I wish all my Hip Hop brothers and sisters from the 1st generation before records to understand that we all have to praise each other like it was back in the 70's.
