Diamond D the legend! He drove us around the Bronx playing a beat tape. It was so hard to pick a couple beats out of all the ones he played us. Welcome to the next level!!!
Salute diamond D for speaking the truth!!! Even though he owes me a beat but hey still one of my faves from around my way!! Big up forest projects !!!! 😎💯🫡
Stunts, Blunts and Hip Hop is one of the few albums i can listen to with no skips. One of the best hip hop albums to ever come out. " Im Outta Here" is one of the best storytelling raps ever. I wish they had a video for that joint
Big up to all you guys on the set. Great interview. Good questions. Diamond D and DITC has repped the BX lovely. Diamond is most definitely a triple threat and brings it strong in all areas.
The argument is not that Puerto Ricans weren’t there. The argument is did they start our help FBA ‘s create hip-hop and the answer is No. Puerto Ricans joined in on what FBA’s were doing.

Been down with Diamond since Ultimate Force...." I'm Not Playing"......" I was born in Forest across from Morris , I got more hair on my chest than Chuck Norris":Master Rob .
I agree Sally is a great story line, but my fave is " I'm Outta Here" . Diamond D is one of the most underrated storytelling rappers and should be mentioned with the likes of Slick Rick and Nas.
Every time I see one of my favorite Rappers/DJ/Producer/Beat Makers doing a interview and the whole who created Hip-Hop question comes up I hold their album over the trash can now waiting to see what their response is going to be. I done tossed all of Fat Joe’s Busta Rhyme’s albums in the trash. Diamond D is from the BX so he would definitely know. Nuff respect to him.
Ahh man we think alike. And whats crazy I worked with Busta and Flipmode on thier initial smoking grooves tour as a street team driver. Shit upsets me that shit hes talkin. Joe😂😂😂 Imma be nice and say nothing😂😂 Im older than both of them..
Diamond D summed it up as easy as can be. He's 100% right. Blacks created hip hop from scratch. If you grew up in certain areas of the Bronx you grew up around Puerto Ricans and we ran together. I like to say " Just because you carried crates don't mean you invented scratching, but you were there". Puerto Ricans were DEFINITELY there, but the concepts and ideas were Black people. I grew up in the Bronx and I'm 61 yrs old. Just stating facts because I was old enough to remember
@@QueenAnitaSoul1#IATL THE 1ST HIP HOP JAM WAS THROWN IN 1967 IN THE EAST BRONX BRONXDALE HOUSING PROJECTS THROWN BY THE REAL GODFATHER DJ KING MARIO AND THE CHUCK CHUCK CITY CREW
Great to hear Diamond's perspective on what Fat Joe said. This all started because he stated "Black & PR started Hip Hop 50/50." That was a false statement. Diamond is definitely one of the best to ever do it and is the #1 producer/rapper! And before anybody says Kanye....he don't write his own rhymes!!
Lost respect for Diamond D honestly any one thinking my people are trying to colonize something we🇵🇷helped🇵🇷 create. I can't tell u if it's 50/50 but too all out deny Ricans contributions is crazy. While I'm no super Fat Joe fan I can't rock wit this idea that Ricans are "guest in hip hop" and never will. Ricans helped lay some ground work,that's a fact. I think the more important disappointing thing is that we supposed to be unified, Puerto Ricans have African heritage by way..there's no denying that and on the East Coast we all grew up close in the same hoods together all we doing is letting the foul people laugh at us. But hey run with that it's cool just another example of divde and conquer and people can't see further then there local hoods.
@@goatsquadtv8786You gotta get out of your emotions and accept the reality of the contributions Puerto Rican made to HIPHOP. Non of the contributions was of Latino influence. It was just a bunch of Puerto Ricans doing nigga shit. It’s the same till this day. The only influence is black american. Ruby Dee been stated that he joined The L brothers 3 years after its creation and how he would be the only Puerto Rican in the clubs. FBA’s appreciate the contributions but, let’s be real. It’s been 51 years of HIPHOP and AINT NO WAY ITS BEEN 50/50.
@goatsquadtv8786 by your own words...contribution is completely different than creation. Not equivalent. And living amongst Blacks, doesn't mean you are Black. Even your parents and grand parents knew this. That's why they gave their kids flack for hanging with them. Blacks found out they were disliked by your parents
Black people/African-Americans started the culture of hip hop... I don't call myself FBA .... I'm an African American .... The culture of hip hop is a Black/African-American culture, and influences is that of the Black culture .... So stop it with all this Caribbean and Latino nonsense. They culture didn't influence African-Americans. The African-Americans American culture was more popular and more influential to the Jamaicans and other caribbeans , including the Latino....
When I was in High School in Alaska. My Junior Year’93 I was getting dressed about every morning to Stunts/Blunts/&HH. Whole Album was Lit🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. A Day & Life was my Joint✊🏽😎✅
Shout out Diamond D. Best kept secret was my joint, not the album version. But yo black Americans obviously created hip hop, i dont even know how that was up for debate.
The Best Keep Secret Himself. Ugh I Identify as the creator of hip hop so respect the title. Mistitling me is considered a violent act. Hey why not lol Seriously tho Love you D No one rocked your chit harder on planet Earth than me and my cats in Detroit.Thank you for the memories. .
16:00 If I was in the studio with Diamond D, while he was on the MPC making the beat. Did I make it and create it, or was I there and participate? Can I say that album was a 50/50 creation, because I was there in that studio that particular day?
Great interview and my point below can’t overshadow that. Shout out to all three of you brothers! Respectfully, I think you’re (mustard hat) the one who is getting things misconstrued. The disagreement is not rooted in the “blurred line between conception and participation”. That is not a fact and it’s insulting to the intelligence of the people who were offended by what Fat Joe said in the first place. Fat Joe stated that Hip Hop was started by both Blacks and Puerto Ricans 50/50. Denying the early participation of Puerto Ricans in Hip Hop was never the point of contention. Peace. It’s hard to focus on facts when the point of contention is not clearly understood.
Bro stop with can't we all get along crap. Only when it comes to Black people gate keeping our culture is that said. No its not going to stop. Did we start this? No we didnt so until they stop trying to claim they helped create it its not going to stop. Either respect it our lose the ability to be in hip hop and get support. If someone comes into your house disrespecting it. Wont you just get along until they see what you saying. Or is it gtfo my house unless you respect my shit? Hip Hop is a Black creation. Everybody else is in fact a guest. We don't give a F if you were born in the bronx. You dont have any say what so ever on changing the history of Hip Hop or its rules.
PR are participants I agree 100%. However, guest has been used for other races such as Khalid, MGK, Vanilla Ice, and Eminem (although he is legit) and I think Puerto Ricans specifically take the term guest with a grain of salt because PR has been pivotal in the growth of Hip Hop. Is all love though.
No one was saying they wasn’t there. The conversation was did they created or co-create? Diamond D answer no . The issue became an issue when they couldn’t accept the truth, which I think diminishis the great contribution on their legacy in the game.
J-Live is, another cat who can produce, DJ and rhyme... He can spin back to back and rhyme at the same time. Can't forget about King Tee.... He used to mix at a radio station in Texas before rapping and he also does beats.
Coming straight from Diamond D but they gonna classify his a a tether now. I am so sick of these conversations about Hip Hop from those who were not there
As a elder statesman to hip hop. Diamond is 100% right when it comes to the origins of hip hop. Puerto Ricans were there. If you grew up in certain areas of the Bronx, Puerto Ricans were your neighbors and you hung out together, but Black ppl started it. They were big on graffiti and got into breaking after blacks became more involved in DJing and MCing. But they were always around. And im speaking most definitely from The Bronx.
@Diamond D... Remembering T La Rock working Jazzy J on the first Russell Simmons and Rick Rubin act on with their early Def Jam imprint with the iconic jam "Its Yours." T La Rock's wordplay influenced their young prodigy LL Cool J and LL's I Need A Beat came behind that which has a beat layout very similar to that T La Rock's "It's Yours." It's also ironic that Diamond D's jam "I Went for Mine" with Diamond and The Psychotic Neurotics sampled The SSO's "Faded Lady" which is the same sample Busta Rhymes and DJ Scratch later used on Busta's jam "New York Shit."
You are right Bruce. Especially on the graffiti side which I don't consider an element of hip hop, because graffiti was in effect long before hip hop started. And even though black started and created break dancing alot of guys, put it to the side to get into DJing and rapping and this is when Puerto Ricans took it to another level. But it was created by Blacks. Puerto Ricans were always there. Just because you have a mic in your hand that doesn't make you an MC.
No doubt, Rza especially was 🔥 in the mid 90s with those Wu solos. Hav was killing those Mobb albums and the others you mention as well were top notch..
Greetings my good ppl I’m Boricua aka Puerto Rican.. I don’t use the word. And Am instantly put off by ppl who use it that aren’t African American… even straight up Africans don’t come off well using it lol.. it’s a weird thing because ultimately it’s only a word, but considering the historical context I see it as off limits.. and I admittedly used it when I was young, immature and uneducated on the topic I also would like to make a point about people feeling as if they’re losing something when they can no longer use it when I think you’re actually gaining.. when you accept that something that you’re doing could be potentially injuring others and you make a conscious decision to no longer engage in it you grow as a person.. Finally, I also agree that Boricuas were there from the very beginning by default and proximity, but hip-hop music is black music, birthed by black ppl / that have been said.. peace and love to everyone and always Remember the importance of loving and respecting one another regardless of having different perspectives.. 💪🏼🙏🏼 🇵🇷
I was wondering why the whole ditc didn't respond to what fat joe was going through and express their feelings .we in social media world.people want and need people opinion and to feel another human being.when people dont speak up especially men its like hiding from something or lack of respect ir non manhood type things.i dont expect men to act like this or tuck tail between legs.i start to question men.just like sadat x taking the stance i dont want to respond or i dont care i want to be left alone etc type vibe is why theres a generation gap and y these jids dont have nobody to respect or be like and y family is gone etc so many things that u expect men to stand up for and a square to stand on im starting to view black men as cowards and wack.i don't care what wack song or hip hop they help create.blk men have a deeper conversation to have and it incorporates many conversations in one.im tired of blk men in hip hop especially and their wack ass interviews talking about nothing or old shit,plus black men not talking about power is just making blk men look musically wack,have no power or influence yet someone can gas ⛽ them with interviews etc to make them feel relevant or use them like blk men always get used to prop ip someone else and they get money and views while the interviewie gets made a fiol of or just used up.its happened for so long i don't know y black men keep falling for the same ol play.
Just saying Like Diamond D said Puerto Ricans/Latinos was there from the beginning We didn’t create hip hop But also hip hop is not one race music at the beginning it was sampling white race music So basically every race copy’s each other Money follows Money
It's Black Music.... Not sure how you came with that. A white song doesn't change that. Non Blac.ks are.copying Blscks. Hip Hop is based on Bla.ck Music.

I also would like to make a point about people feeling as if they’re losing something when they can no longer use it when I think you’re actually gaining.. when you accept that something that you’re doing could be potentially injuring others and you make a conscious decision to no longer engage in it you grow as a person..
Finally, I also agree that Boricuas were there from the very beginning by default and proximity, but hip-hop music is black music, birthed by black ppl / that have been said.. peace and love to everyone and always Remember the importance of loving and respecting one another regardless of having different perspectives..

We the same ..u could use it..new cats bugging and sensitive
The Hurra
i grew up in the BX. Hip Hop to me had no race stamped on it. Its a colorless culture. Everything originated from Africa anyways!!
I was wondering why the whole ditc didn't respond to what fat joe was going through and express their feelings .we in social media world.people want and need people opinion and to feel another human being.when people dont speak up especially men its like hiding from something or lack of respect ir non manhood type things.i dont expect men to act like this or tuck tail between legs.i start to question men.just like sadat x taking the stance i dont want to respond or i dont care i want to be left alone etc type vibe is why theres a generation gap and y these jids dont have nobody to respect or be like and y family is gone etc so many things that u expect men to stand up for and a square to stand on im starting to view black men as cowards and wack.i don't care what wack song or hip hop they help create.blk men have a deeper conversation to have and it incorporates many conversations in one.im tired of blk men in hip hop especially and their wack ass interviews talking about nothing or old shit,plus black men not talking about power is just making blk men look musically wack,have no power or influence yet someone can gas ⛽ them with interviews etc to make them feel relevant or use them like blk men always get used to prop ip someone else and they get money and views while the interviewie gets made a fiol of or just used up.its happened for so long i don't know y black men keep falling for the same ol play.
** I SUBBED YAR CHANNEL!!! DOPE INTERVIEW!!!!🤬🤬🤬🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾
You back doored Joe
J-Live
@48:18 Dj Paul from 36 Mafia is ILL
Just saying
Like Diamond D said
Puerto Ricans/Latinos was there from the beginning
We didn’t create hip hop
But also hip hop is not one race music at the beginning it was sampling white race music
So basically every race copy’s each other
Money follows Money
It's Black Music....
Not sure how you came with that. A white song doesn't change that. Non Blac.ks are.copying Blscks. Hip Hop is based on Bla.ck Music.
Bl.acks copied Black.music.....Disco....funk..r&b....Jazz...all.bl.ack
That's false 😂😂😂😂

The dude in the tan hat is messing up the interview. He should keep low n learn about hip hop culture
I don't want to hear you 2 talk....
💯very toxic. Come together, like the beatles said. Absolutely ridiculous fighting.
We'll come together when people learn to acknowledge the truth
People only have a problem when black people speak up
@ life is to short for that. We need to be cool regardless of our differences Life is hard enough.
This just an interview of dudes talking about nothing and giving a lot of truth mixed with Falsehood which is Disqualifying.

He doesn't look well.
Hiphop is not just Music Ricans had the Breakdancing and Graffiti on lock
But they didn't create those elements. Fall back bro and just pay homage my guy. It's OK to say blacks are the creators... it won't hurt you
@Congac_Black
Exactly
They didn't create anything. But they trying 2 take credit for our culture.
Ricans didn’t create anything…if they did this wouldn’t be an issue. Hip Hop comes from Funk, soul/R&B, Disco and they PLAYED some rock beats in the pass…ALL CREATED BY THE BLACK AMERICA even Rock
False
