  • why they got traktor scratch pro slipmates on an rane promo stand?

  • iam i the only one who think think could of been better -__-

  • The real shit! =D No laptops!!!

  • His not called Grand Master for nothing. Damn man, i'm lucky enough to hear this kind of true music. I pity today's kids listening to Bieber and stuff.

  • @OveragedUser  im a kid and im listing

  • ALL HAIL DA KING !!!!!!!!!!!! 

  • ask pauly d where is his vinyl

  • Ohhh Itsh, K-Robb is flash backing on the old school in the park, " boggie down Bronx ", yeah, from 18 park, to Webster Ave, RiverPark Towers, and no doubt Cypress Ave, to the Reny's,

  • respect to the originator of mix!

  • I like 2:08 to 2:16 where he goes back and forth between the 2 tracks. Thats talent......

  • Hey can anyone tell me where I can find a time machine? I want to go back home to the 80's I miss it soooooooo much!!

  • @www305familyCom dude i wish i was born 10 years earlier i fucking hate todays dj's and its bull shit and where so called hip hop is at

  • All I have to say is, if I did that same routine, I would get boo'd off stage. His name is the only reason people stood around that trainwreck set. :/

  • @VeltixBass I totally agree. He's wack. He's A legend though.

  • @VeltixBass very ballsy comment (pause).. but its exactly what i was thinking..lol

  • @VeltixBass What was wrong with that routine? I mean it's not the DMC here...He has nothing to prove I think. Cheers!

  • @VeltixBass Don't hate man! Grandmaster Flash has nothing to prove, he invented the techniques that all DJs are killing today. This is a fun party mix.

  • This was the way all DJs played their records before cds and computers and laptops were invented. This allows you to play special effects with the records...vinyl..the new name today. You have to be 50 to know what I mean. All DJs had to play two turntables in the 70s and 80s

  • 0:35 Real DJs dont need a Laptop

  • scratch on scratch the guys a pioneer...sit down you maggot :)

  • he is sLowwwww...lolz

  • Which is the name of the song played at: 1.13 ?? thx ;)

  • @Kraftwerk92 its "Get Up and Dance" by Freedom

  • DAMMMMN THIS GUY IS DOIN' IT.

  • CANT BEAT OLDSKOOL BOOM!!!!!

  • ez kell nekünk meg a romlott hazai

  • cant do that with todays music

  • nigga stole his laptop

  • Whenever anyone feels like taking any breakbeat or sample for granted, as if they somehow were always there, it is worth considering that it is because of people like Flash - who knew all the original breakbeats, well before Ultimate Breaks and Beats became available - that turntablism became the art form that it is to date.

  • much respect to the king of the ones and twos

  • why da fukk did they need security fences and shit like that at the event??? fuck dat!

  • _zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • Classic footage

    But where's the funky 4 plus one

  • spin list:

    -mohawks "the champ"

    -freedom "get up and dance"

    -Edwin Starr "I Just Wanna Do My Thing"

  • I think I see pop master fable with the jacket that's my g I know him he like family.

  • He's using "The Champ" by Mohawks, but... Isn`t it a loop on the vinyl?

  • WAT IN THE F^%k ARE U TALKIN ABOUT DUDETTE?!

  • well, what a disappointment... went to his gig last night. The sh1t that he played were crap, a bunch of beyonce's survivor girl and all the single ladies BS... with an occasional scratches in between the tracks ...

    and wtf, no serato my ass. I saw his mac book pro in the middle of his decks with a bunch of commercial playlists...

    he's not as good as he used to be...

  • Between Deadmau5 and Grandmaster Flash, i love them both to death.... different performance style and unique shows for me to die on

  • that crowd are pony. sort it out! brap brap brap

  • What's the name of the Track at 00:20. Pleeeease!!!!!!

  • @LeoSNJ MOHAWKS - CHAMP

  • Today's Djs suck. All they do is play music x( defeats the actual purpose of them being an actual dj

  • WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE TRACK AT 2:46? SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME.

  • @edgore82  those shoes by the eagles

  • @SuperTonyrojas WAT IN THE F*&@k R U TALKIN ABOUT DUDETTE!? THAT TRACK IS NOWHERE NEAR AN EAGLES TRACK!

  • @edgore82 Edwin Starr "I Just Wanna Do My Thing"

  • @broncofunk M'Man! Thanx a lot dude! I've been searchin for that track for the longest! PEACE!

  • @broncofunk It'z funny too, because Flash says the name of it on the track. Thanx BRONCOFUNK! That's definitely it cuz I looked it up on YOUTUBE. M'MAN!

  • this beats virtual dj, pioneer cdj, denon players dj hero or whatever wackness..it started like this 2 turntables and a mixer..a real dj doesnt need more..unless his back is starting to hurt from carrying all the records lol..than i give serato or traktor props

  • its the GRANDMASTER!!

  • @TheUtubemaestro I understand what your saying and if your playing strictly vinyl you make it to where you cant get bored. Your show is ridculous and people are watching you and dancing at the same time. I took tips from Grandmaster Flash and other dj,s and created a show that gets people to talk about me. Some people say that we are old school dj,s and that,s not the case. We are dj,s that can make it happen without computers and keep the party jumping all night

  • the greatest of all times.

  • I hate to say this but for those of you that dont understand what it means to play strictly vinyl you never will be a true dj. Serato is something for d,s that dont want to put in the time and effort. You might be right about carrying crates of records instead of a computer. But let me ask you this what happens when your computer crashes on you and your playing live in a club. What would you do

  • Comment removed

  • @batisitad your first statement is true! If you learned in this age you will never be a match for a deejay that learned it honest...look how effortless Flash is!!

  • @sliccmoufschalaa Like I said no disrespect to dj,s of today I just think that you can do alot more with two turntables then with a computer

  • For the cats that are new to this man i can recommend listening to this album:

    Grandmaster-Flash-The-Official­-Adventures-Of-Grandmaster-Fla­sh

  • wats the track at the start

  • @astrixacid Mohawks - The Champ

  • @AlicanStudios thanks man

  • Sooo Criss!

  • The first DJ to make the turntable an instrument

  • LEGEND>

  • are we not sick of this crap and ebonic? i grew up in the bronx and this stuff repulses me

  • sorry i was staring at tha girls skirt lol

  • Name those breaks! !!

    

  • the original grandmaster, thats hip hop 4 yo ass!!!! hip hop 4eva!!!!

  • I LIKE THE WAY THEY SLOWLY CLOSE THE LAPTOP. NOPE WE WILL NOT BE NEEDING NONE OF THAT HERE!!!! LOL

  • @djsmoothkat EXACTLY! I was saying the same thing!!! No computer that day! Took it back to 1980!

  • can someone tell me what type of turntables he is using

  • @TheDaddyrob3 technic 1200s..

  • @TheDaddyrob3__Technics 1210s  (1210s meant they had a black matte finish)

  • tracklist anyone?

  • @ThePerQLator yes please

  • @ogfunk187 yes please? i was asking if anyone knows the tracklist....

  • @ThePerQLator haha i know

  • @ogfunk187 hahaha.. no u didnt..

  • @ThePerQLator__Actually, they are Technics 1210s (1210 indicated the black matte finish)

  • anyone know the name of the track @1:15?

  • y not give him a battle mode set up? be way better for what hes trying to do.. i guess thats if he knows how to use em that way..

  • @ThePerQLator Hi. In all the videos I've seen of Flash he never has his turntables in "Battle Mode". He's obviously not a fan of it. Just like the inventor of Beat Juggling Steve Dee, he doesn't have them in battle mode either. I don't know how they do it. I can't juggle with the tonearm at the side...I keep knocking them. So for me it's Battle Mode for Life! Peace...DJTrueSoul.

  • @truesouljs he prolly doesnt know how to use em like that.. i did a club and had to use em the standard style and it threw me off so much.. it totally fucked up my set along with things like the fader flying off the mixer.. but now i practice both ways cause its a totally different feel if i dont know one style from the other..

  • what's the name of the song that he plays at 1:13, anyone know?

  • Lovin the dime on the stylus! Of course in London we used a penny!! Same thing though, kept the needle on the groove baby!

  • yeahh

  • I LOVE IT!!!

  • The third song he spins at 2:42, reminds me when we used to B-Boy Battle back in the days....

  • I miss HIP HOP, I miss the Boogie Down, I miss real NEW YORK music.

  • 0:16 cracked me up, how quickly he dashed the vinyl then couldn't get it on his table for like half an hour :L

  • Comment removed

  • guy's a legend but he's also trash

  • STRICTLY VINYL MUTHAFUCKERS!!!! DON'T FORGET THIS! NO SERATO NO TRACKTOR NO CDJ NO PC NO JOKE! ;)

  • @BergamoStreetArmy I don't know why anyone gets so upset about using a laptop, its still the same scratches regardless. You might as well complain about those djs on DMC using someone to hand them their vinyl, I guess that's deemed cheating too? Maybe we should go back to acoustic guitar and forget rock music? Get over it, its technology and all those luddites out there need to wake up, the world is changing and 1980 is long gone.

  • @maccagrabme IF YOU PLAY CD'S, YOU ARE A CDJ! IF YOU PLAY MP3, YOU ARE A PCJ. IF YOU PLAY VINYL, YOU'RE A DJ... 

  • @BergamoStreetArmy So which part of the word vinyl fits into DJ? The word DJ covers so many things, in fact you don't even have to mix or scratch to be called one. So an electric guitarist is a EGuitarist? A drummer playing an electronic drum kit isn't a real drummer? I think some people cannot accept progress, maybe you should be using an abacus instead of an electronic computer and sending your message to youtube by post?

  • I'M SORRY BUT I'M NOT HERE TO TEACH YOU ANYTHING... I KNOW THIS WORLD, I KNOW THE HISTORY AND I KNOW HOW TO BE SERIOUS IN THE MUSIC! THINK WHAT YOU WANT! AND LEAVE US VINYL LOVERS....

  • What's that song on 1:13?

    Nice video by the way!!

    Much Respect to Grandmaster Flash :D

  • WOW.

  • Why isnt that place packed out??? Wft?

    legend!

  • I'd like someone who hands me records. But even though hes one of the grandmasters, hes not that good in this vid... scratching is very basic

  • @audioh0lic

    He's one of the pioneers of DJ-ing... starting in the late 70's... even more popular than the actual inventor of scratching, Grandwizard Theodore... stop criticizing the skill level, it's a lot deeper than that... Grandmaster - cuts faster... my hero!

  • Me to man, thas the dude who invented the shit

  • much respect from the boogie down bronx....Chief69 FRC/TBB

  • i remember him in stuttgart kornwestheim 1995 flic flac with kurtis blow

  • ahhhh pure vinyl

  • u show them how it's done!

  • i scratch like this guy. and my ppl say i suck wtf.....

  • @YORKPEPPER this is crap....

  • damn wat r the names of the songs

  • in the presence of a pioneer. No doubt there's a million dj's who have more INCREDIBLE skills and tricks, but if it weren't for FLASH, those same dj's wouldn't know a fuckin turntable if it fell on them.... GIVE THANKS...PEACE.

  • WTF!!!! it´s not so good!!No feeling for nothing....i expect much more

  • @jrDj the reason dudes is nice in scratching is because dudes like Flash. He inspired the dudes that inspired you. Another thing, we listen with glee because we know there contribution to Hip Hop, we know what they did to help spread Hip hop like cancer. I LOVE HIP HOP, I LOVE BREAK BEATS. RIP JAMES BROWN.......

  • Dayam! beast yo grand it was because of you that i got into hiphop (along with my cousin playing your ish) but then i moved from the records, the graff and from graff went into the bboying game and always surrounded myself with mc'in. So i want to thank you. (thanks)

    and i saw you'll be in london spinning the sametime im over there i would love to come peep and shake the hand of one of the pioneers of this thing. (can you confirm that you'll be spinning on Valentines day)

  • would love to have a 2 to 3 hour....or even a 5 day recording of Flash's set -

  • you can tell that he's a master at his craft - Flash the Scientist - i have much more respect for Flash

  • Thank GOD for giving us Grandmaster Flash and all the pioneers of Hip Hip. I live, eat, sleep, and breath hip hop thanks to pioneers like GMF.

  • Hands down TRUE HIP HOP Flash IS ONE OF THE BEST OF ALL TIME!!!! PERIOD!!

  • Check out 0:06. Looks like KUSH was his inspiration too!

  • THIS'S REAL Hip Hop, thumbz up if u really love this culture...peace y'all

  • Priceless, can't nobody touch GrandMaster Flash, i don't care wat DJ it is!

  • its amazing just 2 vinyls 2 technics and he creates art with it. no computerized crap

  • I’d like to see the white world’s so called “world’s best DJs” Armin Van Buuren and Tiesto go toe-to-toe with the colored world’s top DJs. Ain’t no competition at all because the white DJs can’t do that, period!

  • @DjAntomattei ------who is armin van buuren? ok its like comparing picasso with a copics.

  • what the fucks up with the Dj Hero T-shirt?:))

  • @DirtyDevilDesign take a wild guess.... wou probably allready yhtis but u have no idea so thats why you ask, this is why i`m going to help you out. the awnser

    is: promotion!

  • "wtf's this computer doin up here, get that shit outta here!!!"

  • YOU DA MAN DJ GRANDMASTER...GOD BLESSED WITH SO MUCH TALENT....

  • You cant beat this guy with a stick. One of the originals and still the best...Hip Hop culture would not be what it is, and what it isnt, without Flash. The Grandmaster.
