To bad it’s all singular and it a comes back around again. DJ Kool Herc did not create anything he sampled it and killed real artists at the same time every year we get further from what started it all, Jazz
50 years of HIP HOP Today 11Aug 1973 - 11Aug 2023. Thank you to KOOL HERC and to all the REAL HIP HOP PIONEERS in the music, M.C'S , D.j's , B-boys & Girls , Graffiti artists Beatboxers, all over the world. The BRONX is the home of HIP HOP.........AND YOU DON'T STOP. Peace 5000g
When Sister Cindy started talking about how she threw the party and started naming the date, I got hit by a rush of emotion and nearly lost it. Long Live Hip Hop!!
Thank you 🙌🏼 for the mixing. You have not only created Hip Hop but the roots go partly to House music too. So thank you because I have been mixing and creating house & garage music for 30yrs and without your pioneering mind we wouldn’t be doing what we do today. Bless up 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🔥
In 1973 a kid decides to combine existing music with technology. Great idea! One can make a new form of music without studying the language of music. I like it. The kid is having fun! Love it. I want to get into it if I'm a kid in 1973.
I’ve seen Kool Herc several times in a spot in the Bronx. I’m not a person that really goes up to celebrities but come on now it’s Kool Herc (history), I asked him if I could take a picture with him, and he told me for a fee. 😂 I didn’t get the picture.
I was 10 years old at that time, but I did not know about Hip Hop until a few years later when Sugar Hill Gang came out with Raper's Delight. I grew up in Ohio, and the urban radio stations were playing Soul Music or Funk back then.
It took them 6 years from 73 to 79 to finally have a commercially recorded rap performance to release to the masses. Before it was a live thing only rapping on break beats of soul and Funk records at parties
@@MyBroSux24 I bet it took Jazz and Blues a while before those genres of music were accepted enough to get a recording. Disco had been around for a long time before it got national attention with Saturday Night Fever. Many people thought that Hip Hop was going to be shortlived like Disco but it has endured for 50 years and counting.

It's hilarious watching this video with all the African-Americans who are offended with Busta rhymes saying that Herc started hip-hop. They're bringing up the signifying monkey and clips from the early 1900's of old black men rhyming and don't get that hip hop as we know it is accredited a date in 1973. There are university courses about this. He is the founder of the 1973 version which is what we have today 😅 black people can be so divisive it's ridiculous
@@bettyboopsie9836 that is incorrect I'm so sorry to hurt your feelings here's what you can do to make yourself feel you're right refuse to Google when was hip-hop created because it's going to tell you that it was created it when they say was created by the Jamaican in the 1970s at a house party? If you all used the same amount of energy that you used to talk trash and hate against people of your own color and actually made some positive contributions to your country and stop basking in the success of people like George Washington Carver who are long gone you guys would be better off you're still riding off of Frederick Douglass success that's why you're a failure today
@digitaltrademusic James Brown connected two turntables to mix records so people could breakdance and rap to a break beat? He used to do graffiti? Show me🤡
Growing up in the 80s and 90s it was gospel truth that hip-hop started at Sedgwick with Kool Herc and them, but now it's like so much damn controversy over who and where I never thought I'd see it.
@@staceyboomboom8031 I did clown I’m black American. I know my culture. You white so you don’t get to speak on it nor do you know obviously. Go sit down before I clown your ass😂
I thank Kool Herc for his contributions. He cannot be overlooked. He is a real Hip Hop pioneer. Nonetheless, He didn't create Hip Hop. All elements of Hip Hop before it was called “ Hip Hop” come directly from black American culture. All the music, Dance style, way of dress, and language. Black American culture is the foundation and roots of Hip Hop. Period.
Can you like stop the BS please? We New Yorkers don't care about none of that BS. Hip Hop started in the Bronx and it is documented so. We don't care about none of your rumors, speculations and revisionist history. I was raised in Brooklyn NYC, don't even mess with the the Bronx like that and still give them their respect. Stop with all of this FBA BS, we do not care sir, history is already made.
@@dramafreelyfeand we care! It started in America. That's right. Right here in USA no other place. He used American music made from American artists that were born and raised in America. James Brown soul music mix on the turn tables with funk music created by Americans to make a sound created using American technology. The Bronx a city in America!!!!
Aye!!! I’m sorry but that had to be the lamest museum display. I hope they didn’t charge people to see a couple of turntables, a boxed record collection (that would probably end up stolen), and amp/speaker boxes. Notice how the mini-documentary had NO hippity-hoppity songs in the background. I wonder why ?
You hear what she said she didn't want her party to be whacked meaning there was parties before her party, black people were having House parties all over and block parties and parties at the park he was not the first to do it in the black neighborhood
Herc and Cindy call it hip hop - breaking is more about the dance, hip-hop is the whole culture, rapping, dj-ing, graffiti, dancing to break beats, baby.
Thank you, DJ Kool Herc for bringing Hip-hop to life! Happy 50th anniversary to Hip-Hop!
This man didn't create hip hop
@@montbrink4700who did then?
@@mauricesantinomf Disco king Mario....
@mauricesantinomf hip-hop is an evolution of previous black american music genre.

"There's three kinds of people. There's white people, there's black people, and there's my people. That's where you'll find me at." ~ DJ Kool Herc
Powerful quote-it should be noted that, he's quoting a song on the "Baby Huey" album he pointed out.
THAT WAS A BOSS COMMENT

Not only House music, but techno, and other electro genres, and even Alternative Music(i mean alt rock, nu metal and ect) as funny as it may sound

If herc was born in America, this debate would not exist.
168th & Nelson, Shakespeare, Sedgwick, so many memories up in that part of the neighborhood.

Love this guy.
The Boogie Down! Started it all. We brought the world culture!
whats the name of this documentary?
Hip Hop Legend
I dont here any carribean artist being played! Those were black FBA artist 🤔
This wasn’t the birth of hip hop. The music style had already existed before 73. This was when hip hop got its image.
Ok know-it-all 🤡
@@peteranthony3134 shut up boy. I fact know what I’m speaking about and have facts, u just an outsider wannabe black American
@@peteranthony3134 u don’t even know anything about hip hop clown. U not even black American trying to talk
Breakbeats didn't, that tech wasn't invented. Might want to do your research.

Song ?
Kool Herc Is a legend

Except he of Jamaican descent. Don't take ownership over someone's individual identity.
Everything is derived from something else , but what Herc did was UNIQUE. Hip hop did NOT exist before the Bronx.
@@staceyboomboom8031 in America by black Americans only.
Why do some people say he did create hip hop but it was another dj called dj flowers

How’s this hiphoo
A rose legit grew from concrete
So it's his sista pushing that agenda. I see it.
It was birth of breaking.. im not sure why people calling it hip hop
Herc and Cindy call it hip hop - breaking is more about the dance, hip-hop is the whole culture, rapping, dj-ing, graffiti, dancing to break beats, baby.
If it wasn't for Kool Herc black Americans would be listening to Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber right now because there would be no hip-hop.
