Unceasing psyops.
because they bring up graffiti and break dancing and says that’s part of the elements of hip hop

Dude is a clown. Hip Hop culture was birthed from the blending of Jamaican, Black American, Puerto Rican and other Caribbean and Pan-African cultural influences considering that's the demographic makeup of THE BRONX.

This is so tiring to constantly repeat it, but if lie is constantly told, it turns into the truth after a while.From Charlie Chase's on mouth:
Even the Rican B-boys have said that it was only black people breaking at first and they came later.
Herc may have brought the party thing from Jamaica but he was spinning James Brown and black American music.
That is dumb to say, you can easily take back ownershop of something, you can never change what happened alreadyArgue and fight each other about who started something that the Jews currently own brehs![]()
can someone please take tariq phone away from him. he is doing too much.
Afrika Bambaataa(who's Jamaican & Barbadian) & other legends on the origins of Hip Hop.

And the bullshyt begins
im so tired of this. I think yall are intentionally ignoring the history of NYC at the time. Bambatta started claiming west indian in the 80's once more west indians started coming here, he is off in the head. His ass is from the Bronx. He got his start from disco king Mario who was from north Carolina, but moved to Bronxdale, and was part of the blackspades gang.
That is how bambatta got onto djing, it ain't NOTHING to do with the caribbean. The same for kool herc, but he had some money to buy his own set after he did his first parties with a house system
I wish y'all would actually go learn hip hop history, and stop trying spread your personal agendas
Wait so it’s not ADOS anymore but FBA?![]()
Crack wasnt around in 1973, and reagan wasnt president, by the time that era came, rap was all over the country, and the world. You do know "rappers delight" came out in 1979, right?That's why I'm not going to respond to their nonsense. The mfers writing the wiki pages weren't there. I literally grew up in the X during all this while these keyboard historians were still swimming in their daddy's nuts.
Crack was blowing up, Reganomics was hurting the hood and half the borough was still on fire when Hip Hop started. Koch wasn't doing shyt and the NYPD was robbing nikkas.
The only reason it popped off was because the block parties were the common ground for everyone - blacks, puerto ricans, jamaicans, Zulus, 5 percenters,...everyone...to escape from the bullshyt and catch a vibe. We didn't get into the bullshyt they trying out now because we all grew up as part of the same culture. Herc and KRS was jamaican, Red Alert was from the islands, Kid Capri was half-white, Pun was puerto rican. Most of the dudes that I can remember being nice with the break dancing and tagging were PR. Not one person gaf. If you were from around the way and wasn't a fronta, you was down. We had more smoke for them nikkas from Brooklyn![]()
false.I say this again. Black folks are the ONLY people that have to be all inclusive when it comes to ownership and enpowering our own race.
Hip Hop/Rap is and a by-product of Black American ingenuity and the Black American experience. Hip Hop is birth because of the experiences and genres (blues, jazz, country etc) before it which is all Black American music. No way around it.
