Question for all you outsider non-New York, online pseudo-Hip Hop historians trying to rewrite 50-year old history. If Herc isn’t the founder, then WHO is?
I’ll wait.
In all actuality, it wasn't started by a single person because it emerged out of already pre-existing AfroAmerican cultural traits/practices which consisted of:
dressing style
.
.
verbal-oral traditions
.
.
the music
.
.
.
the dance
.
.
the street knowledge
.
.
in summary:

No. You are not going to spread this lie. The 5% influence was not influential on the origin of hip hop. That didn't happen till hip hops "development" not it's "birth." The video you posted even says "Golden Age" and the Golden Age doesn't start till the mid/late 80s. I actually got my 1 - 10s in 1994 having actually gone to the school and being handed the lessons in person. The school is in Harlem.The influence across the city itself was not on that level by the early 70s. The Supreme Wisdom is used by both the NOI and the 5% and Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali had more of an influence on the streets to the point that the NOIs influence would be bigger then the 5%. So you telling this lie as if the 5% influence had this big contribution to early 70s hip hop while totally ignoring the NOI is wrong. And there is nothing in that video you posted that says otherwise. This is where you not being from NYC backfires on you because you can't experience NYC culture from watching a bunch of videos.
It was there along with NOI influences from the start

Lord Jamar is like Tariq Nasheed were those old tweets acknowledging Kool Herc are coming back to haunt his contradiction. This is just another reason why I originally said Lord Jamar isn't the go to guy for this topic.

What are those influencesAny essentialist arguments in this context are nonsense. Hip Hop is obviously mostly african American. But without there being the urban Environment they were in there's no Hip Hop as it happened, that includes caribean influences, wich are technically afroamerican too.
