      No argument there, J. I'm a Soulful House music DJ but I was there at the birth of Hip Hop. I also remember the park jams where DJs would plug their equipment up to the nearest lamp post and it WAS ON for the next couple of hours! And what was so cool was that people could drink their beer and wine and smoke their weed and the cops would be there but they'd be off nearby because they were assigned there. But they didn't have to worry about anything because people knew how to act back then. The MCs and the DJs would both battle each other! Back then, it was all about one rapper's rhyme being better than the other rapper's. And the DJs would be battling over who could cut records the best. And there wasn't all that yelling, cursing, dissing each other, calling women BITCHES and HOES, or shooting and stuff!
      Yes, J. It was definitely a cool time! But all that changed due to two things. One was the song "Don't Push Me" by Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five and people misinterpreted the song's true meaning. Two, the evolution of Gangster Rap on the West Coast trying to keep up and outdo the East Coast. The true message of Hip Hop has long been lost.
      And BTW, I knew Scott LaRock and played ball against him shortly before he was killed.

      The lyrics, music, video are so well made and meaningful it's astonishing the amount of bs BDP/KRS1 had to deal with at the time, including a push to have him, "banned," or censorship by racism as I call it.

The subs were hooked up in a method called isobaric, two subs facing up and the other two facing down connected to each other, reverse wired that resulted in some very violent bass. This was installed in a 93 Camaro Z28, those at the time were hatchbacks. I remember if someone lit a Bic lighter inside the car with the windows up with the radio was on, the air or vibration would literally blow the lighter out.

    i was a teenager through the 80s and i was born and raised in the Bronx and saw the rise of BDP and the whole hip hop movement! While watching Luke Cage i got a tear in my eye... for many reasons... because I remembered the movement and all the ways times me and my friends contributed to it.... because KRS ONE is one of my favorites of all time! .... and of how GREAT and important real hip hop was because songs like this one told the story of what it was like growing up in the projects in NYC and really for any kid in "any where hood/ghetto" USA where the odds were stacked against them. As i watched krs perform, it brought back all those memories.... of the song itself, the artist, the message, the whole movement...but most importantly the constant struggle and fight to survive and or get out and be better!... and i did (as many people in my generation did) get out and today decades later, my life is much better, I'm much stronger. Its hard for people who didn't live through all this and during this time to understand it all... and if could go back in time... i wouldn't change a thing!

We'd stop in this record store back in 1987 similar to that record store Q & , Bishop(2pac) went in on the movie juice. He eventually bought the whole 80's hiphop collection on wax. I remember he bought the Paid n Full album in 86. Epmd, Boogie Down Productions, Biz Markie , Dana Dane, Slick Rick, Big Daddy Kane, NWA when it came out. Kool G Rap & Dj Polo, Kool mo Dee, LL Cool J, Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince, he had Damn near everything on wax. I still got the Biz Markie album the only one remaing album from his original collection.When he went to college someone stole the whole collection I was devastated. He remained a true hiphop fan put a album out in the 90's with his crew. He introduced me to Nas in 1994 no one knew who he was. He handed me a cassette single with a black cover with the words Nas in red on the cover. I was like who the hell is Nas? He responded & said dude is nice. The track was Ain't hard to tell. Not long after illmatic dropped then everyone discovered him. He showed me what real hiphop was really about. When he wrote rhymes he idloized Rakim & even copied his sound when he was recording. He showed me the right way. I got off into the westcoast gangsta movement in the mid 90's but never forgot my roots of what hiphop really was. Your story is jewels & artifacts. I'm not from NY but hiphop's rhymes took me there & showed me the projects & streets of NY like real hiphop used used to do. Not real not too many people are able to be from Bronx or Queens & was apart of the hiphop movement in NY. It's still some of yall out there but it's rare. That's some legendary shit I salute it.
