where are 50 cent now? where are p diddy and jay z who made billions with hip hop, and when such a legendary place is in danger none of them will fight to preserve it...

lol das wassup i live in sedgwicc ave

[mikepalomino]

I never heard about DJ Kool Herc until I saw History Detectives the other day (I love hip-hop, but I hardly have my finger on the pulse of the scene ^__^).

Anyhow, this is really awesome that DJ Kool Herc and 1520 Sedgwick Avenue were recognized like this. It's a testament to the spirit of diversity we have in the New York City region, as well as, the impact that Hip-Hop has had (which isn't as negative as some would want one to believe).

[unlimitedproduction]

I think respect

peace

[kahotep7414]

So are they going to keep the center open and is it part of the National Register so they wont tear it down?

Thanks a lot for this video. I am a huge fan of Real Hip Hop, and therefore of Old School and the father of this movement, Kool DJ Herc. From France.

[auntflow]

[Thunda1986]

i tink before he dies people need to know who he is not think they knew who he was when e dies can i get an amen

[psynglethought]

if you so much as make a beat or rap, bow down to this man, seriously. If not for him you'd have nothing. WE really got something to brag about now, not just Congress. God bless.

[sypha0x]

DJ Kool HERC gave me a copy of the ORIGINAL Tribute! I AM BLESSED. THE FATHER OF HIP HOP!

[SKILLMIX]

The man i the suit who claim he 'brags' that hiphop started in the BX, I think is bullshittin'; hip hop isn't something they're proud of. Mad luv the DJ Kool Herc, Flash and all the rest that give birth to this artform.

One Luv.

DJ Skillz (wheelz of Steel)

[sypha0x]

Right but that guy actually was pushing forward to protect the movement brother.

[SKILLMIX]
