I turned 13 in 1980 also! I have vivid recollections of hearing rap on the radio and my older brother getting records by Kurtis Blow and Blowfly. And of course who can forget hearing "Rapper's Delight", it was like a shot heard round the world.

That is incredibly sad. He led a turbulent life but made a lot of great music.

Next to the Mexican by Babe Ruth..

First performed in 1960 by a white British band, the Shadows, who get no credit.

@@yariradreher-morales2349 yep but nowhere near as transformative as the Bongo Bands version, with Mr. Preston Epps killing the bongo groove

@@henrystory3011 yes the Shadows happened to be the first to have a hit with Apache. It was done by many others like The Ventures and Jorgen Ingmann

Yes, he is!

@user-kv5ng5jj3k it sure is

No body can. They just do. So Just do. Doing is inherently guiding... They do/did it full time... for display/show/competition.

Quick exit & or no stairs... Landlords having burned up the buildings multiple times for the insurance.

Look for a film "Stations Of The Elevated".

Graffiti isn't one of them.

​@@makeuthink2120are 4, and graffiti is part of them. MC, DJ, Break/Rock, and Graffiti.

@@jakgd Graffiti does not come from hip hop. Even though people have been writing their names or words on walls for a long time, the graffiti "culture" started in northern manhattan in the late 60's. Graffiti does not need Hip Hop to exist.

​@@makeuthink2120 I know the beginning of graffiti and the people that were involved. It's true, graffiti wasn''t part of hip hop in the very late 60's and early/mids 70's. But we know the big impact that graffiti had back in the day. Once hip hop born, graffiti was adopted as 1 of the 4 elements of hip hop. It was pure street cultural elements. As break/rock that wasn't part of hip hop at the beginning. It's not a hidden thing that the first writers were hippies or people that just were disconnected from anything that could be connected to hip hop, cause it wasn't exist yet. At the end of the day... For me all this represent a good and real past, not the present. The kids of today and the youth are not interested in this anymore. It's a time that is gone.

@@jakgd Some people would disagree with you if you say that break/rock(b boying) wasn't a part of hip-hop in the beginning because if the dancing was ever being done to music that music would've been the same music the dj's would play. Also, the "defenders" of hip-hop will always say that hip-hop came from the "FBA's"(Foundational Black Artists). If graffiit is an element of hip-hop then who are the "FBA's" of graffiti? Cornbread? Yes, he was writing in Philadelphia around '67, and probably before some of the first official writers in NY, but he had NO influence with the early writers in NY. Not one NY writer ever started writing because of Cornbread. The NY scene was independent of Philadelphia. Though the Bronx is rightfully seen as the birthplace of hip-hop, when it comes to graffiti, Phase 2 said that the Bronx style was influenced by the Manhattan and Brooklyn styles.
