Still waiting on y'all "Hotep 100% black/Back to Africa" nikkas on The Coli to refute Malcolm X's statement on Africans sitting on the sidelines during the Civil Rights Movement and distancing themselves from Black Americans to look good for whitey(which they still do to this very day.)

still waiting on your response to Malcolm being part Grenadian and basically saying blacks in the Western Hemisphere are c00ns

The premise of the DJ and an MC chatting is based off of reggae. Bottom line, this city was a place with there was a meshing

Wrong. I'm not coming at you but this lie has been going on for too long, its time for the truth to come out.

The only reason why you have a DJ and mc, is because the DJ needed someone to make announcements, and help carry records. All types of DJs did this. The truth is it came from DISCO DJS, not reggae. We know rapm did not come form reggae or the west indies because you can't find a song prior to the late 70's where someone is rapping. While in the states rapping was not out of the norm. Pig meat Markham had a hit with "here comes the judge" and that was in the 60's.

Again rap music came from DISCO. THE SOUND SYSTEMS, THE STYLE OF RAPPING, THE DRESSING, AND LOVE OF DANCING, ALL DISCO. LOOK AT THE EARY RAPPERS NAMES, THEY HAD DISCO IN THEM.

Yes.

You think its a coincidence that hip hop developed during a wave of immigration from the Caribbean and migration from the South to New York City? Again, explain why hip hop culture (not rapping) didn't develop in the South. The South has and has always had the majority of African Americans

These guys will never understand the marriage of different people from the Diaspora that existed in New York to create hip-hop.

Read my last post. Rapping was being done by southerners, I.e. pigmeat Markham.

If this had been a list of the 10 hottest Latinas not one black woman would've been on the list and The Coli would've been there would've been no talk about how c00ned out many Latinos are, and the minute someone would try to mention it some breh spouting: can't we just enjoy the mami's without talking about race" would sound off. Once again proving why no one should take The Coli brehs seriously about anything race related. You all are about black power until a PAWG, PAAG, or PAHG comes by then it's

I didn't notice it, post it again. Even so wtf that has to do with Malcolm calling out Africans on their bullshyt? Which people do on this board all the time, but the Africans who post here accusing them of "Bashing Africans."

thats not what i said. but west indians have made a huge impact in the founding of hip hop. the South Bronx was mostly people of Caribbean descent (if you include the Puerto Ricans) then. there are a lot of factors in hip hop's creation. but explain why is was only after large scale immigration from the Caribbean that hip hop developed when AAs have been rapping for centuries? also, if you take away the contributions of Caribbean Hispanics and Franco-/Anglo-phone West Indians since the beginning of hip ho, hip hop wouldn't be where it is

 

[Lewis Black]

No. Hip hop was happening before Kool Herc even thought about djing. I'm fact most of the people who influenced herc were AA either directly from the south or family was from there.

Do you know the history of hip hop?

Breh these dudes have no clue.

Some africans do tend to do that i couldnt name any that were integral in the movement off the top of my head But people stokely carmichael and harry belanfonte were on the front line

And even disco and its origins are tied to the marriage of funk and salsa.

Regardless of what you say, it is the marriage of many from the African Diaspora that created hip-hop. Bottom line, Puerto Ricans were always attached to the African Diaspoa more than other Latin groups.

I'm sure Empire Records has a Reggaeton artist on their label.

@KidStranglehold see what i mean about west indians trying to claim it now. Read the last few pages.

@IllmaticDelta please give these brothers the truth on hip hop history. I can't keep dealing with the ignorance just because it feels good to them, so they repeat it.
