The kool herc story isn’t a real receipt though. It never made any logical sense to narrow the origin down to a singular party

When you ask someone to explain, no one can properly articulate what exactly did they create at that party
The party actually happened. Again that's not the "origin" of hip hop. First documented organized event surrounding a culture. You want to break the myth find something earlier. A gathering of like minds around said music. Going back n forth online won't do it. I don't think anyone logical actually thinks everything just manifested in a room one day and spread forth. You being too literal.

But that’s exactly how they treat it lol

This is why kool herc and Jamaica gets credited with elements of hip hop. All off the strength of this party
