Stop calling my culture "Hip-Hop"

[Juneya]

I was just pointing out how you contradicted yourself. You said that you never said white folks came up with the name but that's what you clearly said in the OP


I could be wrong but I don't think one nikka from NYC has posted in this thread

Where is meta from

Giving the name to the culture as a whole and coming up with term are different. But if you feel like that is a fatal flaw and contradiction in my position... I feel you... Have a good one

 

[Juneya]

If it's common knowledge it shouldn't be hard for you to post a receipt.

Didn't even take me 10 minutes. You been ignorant to it your whole life

Breh it was years before white folks starting calling it hip hop. They only called it rap for the longest. They started calling it hip hop cuz the hip hop community had gotten so undeniably strong that they had no choice. Remember they thought this shyt was a fad.

So who was Jack The Rapper. He was a long time radio DJ from the 50s and maybe even the late 40s. Jack starred in the first radio soap opera drama to feature an all black cast, "Here Comes Tomorrow." In 1949, he opened the first Black owned and operated radio station in America-Atlanta’s WERD Jack the Rapper is also credited with developing a new design for radio control rooms where he elevated the equipment forcing disc jockeys to stand. This greatly improving their voice projection and his idea has been copied all around the world.

Jack the Rapper was the first National Director of Promotions and Public Relations for Motown Records. He led the successful campaign to have Stevie Wonder’s records “unbanned” in South Africa.

Jack the Rapper is considered to be the father of Black radio and came from that ilk of people who created a unique style of on air announcing. Famous DJs like Daddy O, Jocko Henderson and numerous others often incorporated rhymes in their daily chatter. The DJ featured in Spike Lee's movie 'Do The Right Thing' exemplified this style. It was these early rhyme styles that were heard by Jamaican DJs who then were inspired to use such styles in their what they called 'Toasts'. Jack The Rapper was part of that important group of people who inadvertently kept alive the African Oral tradition which is the basis for rap..

So he invented breakbeats?

Im sorry. Rapping lyrics to tell each other stories and history is exactly what your doing in so caled hip hop.


How does it not apply?

Because it wasn't hip hop.

I feel you bruh, I do remember. They thought the commercial viability and appeal of black youth culture was a fad. They didn't think it was enough of us or that we would last long enough to keep the buying power.

The name is the name. But the culture existed before the name.
The name gives NYC nikkas this false sense of entitlement and THE NAME REWRITES OUR HISTORY

Along with the rise of ska came the popularity of Deejays such as Sir Lord Comic, King Stitt and pioneer Count Matchuki, who began talking stylistically over the rhythms of popular songs at sound systems. In Jamaican music, the Deejay is the one who talks (known elsewhere as the MC) and the selector is the person who chooses the records. The popularity of Deejays as an essential component of the sound system, and created a need for instrumental songs, as well as instrumental versions of popular vocal songs

So they invented breakbeats?

Jack the Rapper wasn't rhyming over breakbeats Uptown in Parks...Nor was he beat-matching in the downtown disco clubs. Not the same thing. All black culture isn't hip hop. Hip hop is a PART of black culture, and the dominant form.

You haven't posted a receipt for rhyming over breakbeats in the Carribean or Miami that predates NYC.

Not saying that... But your saying breakbeats didn't exist before "hip-hop"?
Rapping over the break beats is an action, it's not a culture.

How is stating differences in vocal inflection and approach "divide and conquer" if the history is acknowledged?
white folk called us ******s and we say nikka now. Don't you say nikka? Now think about that.

 

[Juneya]

shyt like that is why I made the thread
"THE DOMINANT FORM"

Then they got the nerve to say what other nikkas do ain't hip hop.

fukk YOU AND HIP HOP
