[JuiciJack]

sick old rollerskating song, used to jam to this at the rolladium in San mateo. this n Egyptian lover took the place over!

[bassababe]

Just listened to the amazing genius of "Planet Rock" which launched a thousand ships. Another classic I highly recommend is "Nunk" by Warp 9, both the vocal and instrumental versions. I say yes to MrRossogood's thoughtful comment.

[HoseaCider]

Kraftwerk, The Hip Hop Nation thanks you for this beat.

[MrRossogood]

The early 80's was a musical rethink. New York producers like Arthur Baker, John Robie, Richard Scher, Lotti Golden, Mantronix, Hashim and Man Parrish moved dance music from the tired disco of the 70's into a new, interesting, hybrid of sounds and cultures grounded in Roland 808 beats and synths. The highly imaginative sound of electro hip hop would set the stage for the R&B pop music of the 80's from Janet Jackson to Prince.

[TheEASTSIDE128]

used to have some crazy block party's back in the day and this was one of the songs brings me back brockton eastside

[phyuckyeu]

Just to clarify, the hook in this song is a combo of two Kraftwerk songs, the backbeat is from Kraftwerk's 'Numbers' and the synth chorus is from Kraftwerk's 'Trans Europe Express' , Tour De France would be written a few years later than this, although that was a crucial sample as well. See MC ADE 'Base Rock Express' for another great Trans Europe Express sample.

[park247]

Yes!!! its right Afrika Bambaataa stole this track from Kreftwerk tour de france and (made the great play )----like Ice Cube says . and made a few million. but i still love both songs i,m not a hater hats off too both groups.

[bigdad1211]

[211bill]

"Trans Europe Express" by Kraftwerk was released in 1977. It pre-dates MTV, BET and Hip-Hop's commercial explosion of the 1980's.

[VonVitto]

@211bill @211bill i know the Trans Euro Express was first but i was taking about Trouble Funks "Arcade Funk" or BamBaata's "Planet Rock" DC hasn't gone down in the history books for shaping, influencing and starting RAP Hip Hop etc through GoGo music which has been around in DC since 1969 by way of Chuck Brown

[VonVitto]

I WONDER WHO DID THIS FIRST, DC'S TROUBLE FUNK BAND OR AFRIKA BAMBAATA???

[atlantichouse]

@VonVitto kraftwerk did it first.

[DIZZYGIT]

[MjOKER12]

i dont kno if wat i say matter too you guys but im 15 and i rlly hate and ashamed how my generation doesnt know anything about real hip-hop , im proud to say i do kno the difference of real music and mainstream bullshit and i really wish we had good music nowadays too

[211bill]

Kraftwerk was a very influential band.

[das81]

@211bill sadily.

[STEVEDIGIBOYtv]

@211bill

Or they just listened to the cutting edge of 70's USA music.

[arlichar11]

@211bill in kraftwerk documentary, its funny when this song is brouhgt up,, he guy says yeah they ripped off my beat ,bloody bastards, then claimed they were originaters of hip hop... but later on they did acknowledge that it was ok because it did bring a whole gernre to know kraftwerk,...

[zminemx]

4:16 i make the zzz

[djrobbligidy]
