This track is purely for other to listen to and claim no rights over ..It's purley for other to enjoy as this video shouldn't be boxed away it's a B Boy classic
Classic!!!!! Had this on tape. Whiz Kid is definitely one of the DJ pioneers who rarely gets a mention when talking about early pioneering Hip Hop DJs…great footage 💯💯😎
Derek dee from jamaica Queens, NY. This should be in the Smithsonian. One of the best ever. Whiz kids signature speed on the record I Cant Stop influenced everyone from dj Scratch to Grandmaster Vic. R.I.P to one the best The Lord Himself blessed us with on this earth. Thanks for this epic footage. God bless!
This is literally the blueprint of what the world would go on to emulate, he wasn't the first but he was definitely one of the finest, sure it's basic technically to todays ears but the musicality, ear for rhythm and imagination it inspires never ages, if Whiz Kid isn't in your all time top 5 you're doing it wrong, RIP
This piece of ART belongs in a museum.Maybe the HIP HOP MUSEUM opening up in 2023 in THE BRONX. I mean this should be playing as we walk into the museum. Harold " WHIZ KID" McGuire RIP was way ahead of everyone else at that time. An ICON, LEGEND, PIONEER left us too soon. THIS IS A MASTERPIECE!!!
Whiz Kid was one of the first turntablists I had tapes of him cutting up and doing stuff which was ahead of its time! He’s never talked about by today’s so called turntablist and it’s a shame. RIP whiz your light on the Dj scene went out too soon 🙏🏽
Thanks for uploading this raw old school footage. What Whiz Kid is doing is true art that was far ahead of its time,probably over most people’s heads at the time this was filmed. Play for the punk rock/ Play for the hip hop forever!
I had the pleasure of seeing & meeting him @ The Lyceum Theatre in London, jus after he completed doing a documentary for the BBC2 Arena show on Hip- Hop. 😎👊
peace and light,this exists in greater quality elsewhere on the web,I contacted whiz kids family and created a facebook group dedicated to this amazing dj,a few years ago,this footage plus more will be released thanks to my connection at the b.b.c.,there are a lot of 'beats and pieces 'that have yet to see the light of day,I even spoke to mc g.l.o.b.e. about it a few years ago,a lot of the hip hop cognoscenti joined the group and I managed to get excellent information on harold 'whiz kid' Maguire from his mother cora and sister tracey,and brother Michael....got the chaps at the 'beeb' to clean this up using software and computers that they use to clean up old Dr who episodes,keep he's eyes peeled...the whole story,FROM THE ROOT TO THE FRUIT,PEACE!.
@rlprincipe I put this video up ten years ago for whiz kid's brother Mike and his mum cora,and sister Tracey...all the best from original fingerprince,peace.
Man what year is this ? & what equip is he using ?? I still have his battle vs DJ Jazzy Jeff (Ultimate Trax vol. 2) on vinyl...even though its VHS quality,its still dope as hell to just sit back & watch him,reppin the ol skool style ! Word!
3:00 this is the unedited scene which was used for the 1984 television film: Beat This: A Hip-Hop History th-cam.com/video/UC4ww-dGvK4/w-d-xo.html Do you have more unreleased footage from that film? Great upload, Thanks.
An absolute must watch for hip hop historians, DJ's, and those who appreciate the art.
