This musik is sick. So sick. I want to make an Album alled Rock This Planet Earth, after I go on American Idol. Anyone want to participate? It is also a Political Campaign for Presidency.
haha..all this kraftwerk/planet rock beef is irrelevant to the roots of hip hop. it was already here (NY) b4 bam come out w/ this joint. ya need to recognize herc, junebug and flash for bringing those calypso/steel drum samps b4 him. to me he started the `electro` sound to hip hop. from there u`s can beef on kraftwerk/planet rock..but w/ or w/out it hip hop was on the move..and nutn was guna stop it...
@NYOLSKOOL Thanks you actually helped me out because I was never referencing Hip Hop.. my point was that electro and hip hop mix was a lot older than Plant Rock.. Plant Rock just helped move the genre more mainstream here in the USA.
I never was talking about the move of Hip Hop.. everyone knows that hip hop was around way way before any of this.. hip hop originated sometime in the 1920's
@dygad1 1920`s??.dunno what u talkin out. but as far as kraftwerk/planet rock, yeah, bam sampd from them. back then it was all about the samps. i feel bam did more for kraftwek than kraftwerk did for bam. yeah he used their music but it put kraftwerk into the mainstream. kraftwerk didnt put hip hop into mainstream. at least not in usa and def not nyc.maybe i europe. it was just another samp bein used. i know if bam didnt use that samp, many peeps in usa would never have heard of kraftwek.
@NYOLSKOOL yeah the origins of Hip Hop started in the 1920's
"Earl Tucker (aka Snake Hips), a performer at the Cotton Club invents a dance style similar to today’s hip-hop moves. He incorporates floats and slides into his dance style. Similar moves would later inspire an element of hip-hop culture known as breakdancing."
@dygad1 my introduction to that kraftwerk sound came in 1978 in the movie `midnight express` w/ the song `the chase` by giorgio moroder. and UT friend from germany told m he was from austria. so i know that music was prevalant over there. but not here. and ur talkin about the dance moves of hip hop. not the music w/ regard about ur 1920 coment. the charlston was similar to the `up rock` style in dance also. but the culture of hip hop came from the streets. my intro into it came thru graffiti.
@NYOLSKOOL awesome! I know that Thomas Wong is believe to be the first to use a "booming sound system" the date I am not sure but it was either the 1930's or 1940's.
I can't believe I forgot about the Charleston! I think of it as more jazz but I can't believe I forgot about it because Charleston is my hometown! We actually still do it and if you can't then you're not from Charleston lol
@dygad1 if u look at my favs u`ll see a vid called `original uprock`. its with al and leon doing their thing w/ a hip hop track to it. its hilarious. but it really shows where some of them moves come from.
@dygad1 im not knockn kraftwerk. and dont want to offend my UT friends, especially those from germany. but once again, hip hop woulda kept on going w/ or w/out planet rock. and now i know who kraftwerk is. thanks to bam.
@NYOLSKOOL certainly no offense taken at all.... Kraftwerk was really really huge in Europe for a long time then Bam helped bring them here to the usa and kraftwerk brought bam over there.. this really only happened because the cold war lost it's intensity and we were being allowed to share :-)
Hip hop folks forget their roots .. its electric , ,minimalistic based beats what made hip hop .. pls come back to these roots without lil fags autotune rubbish !
in the beginning was the word and that word was kraftwerk. the true pioneers of this beat. they created it, polished it and mastered it before all others. everybody else imitated this beat because it was just so fucking infectious. hats off to the krauts for this one.
@atlantichouse very nicely put.... Kraftwerk's first release was 1971!!! It took us a while but we got it eventually. Think about it when Kraftwerk came out Elvis was still making new albums and the Beatles were making number ones!
haha looks like people started fighting over the Kraftwerk thing... the thing is that hip hop didn't make this popular worldwide it only made it popular here in the USA.. the fact is we copy a lot of beats and music styles from Europe and they do the same.. I travel a lot and Eastern Europe and Germany this music was BIG! in the 70s and 80s.. by the time we got it it was dead there.. and they were getting into stuff that was old to us.. it's really nice to travel! lol
@dygad1 mmmmm.... fighting over the kraftwerk thing?
first of nothing, read and learn, this track inspired to the "miami bass" and "detroit techno" to born like a new genre ...altough you travel, would be better if only you learn, and then give your opinions.
@rubenpixel okay I really don't understand what your point was. I never disputed that this track inspired a new genre. Simply put every genre has its root and the root to this track and anything inspired afterward was Kraftwerk. In 1971 Kraftwerk released their first recorded beats titled "Organization Tone Float". Nothing came before these ground breaking beats because before this we did not have computers that were used for sound.
If you are not aware, that inspired new genres emerge, why give your opinion?. By your comment "the rhythms are copied each other, " I ask you, know what is Detroit Techno?. Because if not, learn as much as you travel, that's the point, and then later, will welcome your comments.
@rubenpixel please I urge you to learn how to read and write music. Then you would be able to take the sheet music and compare the roots and see how beats and rhythms are copied and why? well that's because the beats and rhythms are the rules. Take for example how everyone acknowledges that rock is it's own genre with many other genres connected to it. Rock's root is Jazz .. no they do not sound the same but they follow the same rules.
Hey. How about we actually evolve beyond being stupid primates?? Black, White, Spanish and Asian. We are all ignorants. Can't even just enjoy music. We always have to separate and much like we were when came down from the trees and lived in caves. We still hate each other and fight wars, we deserve to have our world end.

All you Kraftwerk people...yes they influenced Bam...and yes Planet Rock has a lot of Kraftwerk in it. But if Planet Rock did not exist then music would not have been influenced by Kraftwerk the same way this did. Planet Rock tore the place apart.... dance music was never the same again. The sound that comes out of a speaker is not black or white it's music. Love the music. This is the Greatest song ever....period.
"But if Planet Rock did not exist then music would not have been influenced by Kraftwerk the same way this did."but planet rock only exist BECAUSE kraftwerk change music.without kraftwerk you will never have africa bambaataa's music.
2 members of kraftwerk hold a patent for the first electro drum machine.
so for me,kraftwerk is the reason why we got electro-robot-rap music in the 80's.
better listen to people like kurtis blow.he make music with his own hands and ideas.
This was one of the songs in the early 80's that convinced me I needed to be a keyboard player. This and 'Don't You Want Me' by the Human League. Great music. I had this EP. Wore it out till it was white. And not in a racist way.
im a greek, and i was born in germany near stuttgart, planet rock was since i can think my favorite.... together with kurtis blow.... the breaks....that kind music was for my hold life energy because i never give up listen to my favorites...thank you bronx
folaabimbola, keep your non-pigmented ass out of our cipher. Comment on your fellow klansmen pages. WE DO NOT SEE YOU OR HERE YOU! SO GET THE FUKKK OUT OF HEAR!
@allornothin86 funny thing is you're wrong. you fucking scumbag. even the air would like the oxygen that it invested in you back, because you're not worthy of it.
I was just browsing for some cool old stuff and when I saw the title of this video, I expected a dub version (the genre). I nearly jizzed in my pants without even watching the video. I'm kind of disappointed.
this is THE BOMB!! In the same way that "Fresh Is The Word" or "Sucker MC's" or any other hip-hop track whose primary function is to SHOW OFF THE BEAT! These sounds were brand new never-heard-before at the time! This song here is actually structured the same way as ten million house songs that would come many years after -- it's a "jack track" serving the purpose of the dancefloor! A DJ's tool, for layering and mixing, structured with numerous breaks, builds, drops & rhythms, this was FRESHHHH
without vocals is an instrumental....dub doesnt mean no vocals, dub could have vocal samples a lic...not many but can hav sum. dub has to do with the tempo, effects being used, and the drum sound.
dubSTEP is very similar but again different sounds and effects, but similar tempo..
Yhea!! Right!! I'm White BUT I grew up in an All Black Neighborhood. Back Then it was Music like this that brought us ALL together!! We'd get our stereo and go down to the park. Plug that shit in to the parks Electric,Take out our Grill and BBQ and yell at all the Passers By "Hey Get You A Plate!! Then on Saturdays We'd all go to the Skating Rink (Gimme A HO! If you Got your funky Bus Fare!!!) I Learned how to dance watchin' Soul Train!! Hey Brother! Keep the Faith!!
@FejFaceProductions If dats d case, then we as black people have a problem. Once upon a time, Egyptians (blacks) ruled the world and had isrealites (non-blacks) as slaves. You dont see jewish people still complaining do u? Slavery ended decades ago! I think it's time to got off our butts and move on instead of blaming white folks and racism for everything
Refresh on the 5th element of hip hop mutha fukas! Stop bullshittin and appreciate the music! aren't we past race, or do you guys still live the confederacy?
White people rock!!-We are born with the belief that we rule everything!!!-Its in our DNA!!--Its easy to hate and still RULE THE WORLD!!!--Remember the ALAMO you loser spic!!
@flippermac haha ppl like you should still be burned! Man, open your eyes, see and feel that you are NOT better than anyone else... btw... do you really can read DNA? I dont think so, so where do you "know" what you are talking? Right! Read out of your shroomy-soup huh? You fail on life... lol
Spic, funny because you white racist people cant find anything better to use. It's also funny because when you see me walking down the street I don't get called spic. Fuckin Hipocrits. what a joke!
@khattamshud We All Know That Kraftwerk Invented Electro! & it was not a rip off of trans europe exspress but a interpretation of the song....it was the black djs of the ghetto new york,chicago,detroit,los angeles etc...that made the electro sound blow up all over the planet!
Bam Bam its Bambaataa, Im Mexican when i first cale to the sattes at age 5 i was still listenig to my countries music but then shifted to Hard rock, didnt last long cause i then shifted to Soul, Hip Hop and when breaking faded in my area back in 84 i shifted to Reggae and at 42 im still listening to it. I even grew dreads. Black music is its own machine and no matter what they say Black music can get you off your feet. Black music is Jahs music yes the Kings Music
ok! now we have got to the point where elvis watched and learned from the masters and made it big, from what he had learned from the black kids, he perfected on stage, then black RNB artists also learned a few tricks from elvis too, then other white artist learned and coppied off the black artists, and it goes on and on.......at the end of the day you are basically saying if your white and make music that is not folk or classical, you stole your music off the blacks.
"why does everything have to be about black n white? " Because Yankee idiots like you make it so. You Americans jump in with some racist BS and then when your called on it you cry to mama. It is a pattern that I have always seen Americans do. How are Blacks gonna copy what they have already have. That is the dumbest thing that I have ever heard. It is like saying the Native Americans are squatters, when the land was theirs in the first place.
look everyone!!! im sick of getting thick comments about elvis saying he was racist and stole black music. instead of saying that im wrong, why dont you look him up and other black rnb artists of that era and read what they said about elvis before commenting aload of shit you know nothing about. i dont even like the guy but i like the truth and hate racist shit. no more comments pls. just comment on PLANETROCKHEAD's great music. aint that what your all here for?
The colored folks been singing it and playing it just like Im doin now, man for more years than I know. They played it like that in the shanties and in their jukee joints, and nobody paid it no mind til I goosed it up. I got it from them. Down in Tupelo, Mississippi, I used to hear old Arthur Crudup bang his box the way I do now, and I said if I ever got to the place where I could feel like old Arthur felt, Id be a music man like nobody ever saw.
Look Mate I know you Americans are all twisted up with racism but at least give credit where credit is due. I have no Idea why some people try to take credit for everything, like no one else in the world can make something worth while. Save the Tarzan routine, for the other racist blokes. Everyone in the civilized world knows that Elvis borrowed heavily from Blacks, even the Beatles mate borrowed from the Blacks. The Blacks practically invented Rock and Roll, am I crying about it?.......
exactly mate. borrowed, not stole just like the coloured ppl coppied his stage acts. but because he was white, he stole it. i make electro and other stuff and im inspired by loads of black artists. does that make me a music thief too? elvis did not steal, he was inspired, he was not racist, the music industry was racist. ps the beatles borrowed from indian artists too and im from UK :)
"Calvin Newborn was one of them. He remembered a teenage Elvis sneaking into a black bar outside Memphis where Calvin played guitar in a family band in the fifties. He would sit there and watch me every Wednesday and Friday night, Newborn told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Id wiggle my legs and swivel my hips and make love to the guitar. Sometimes Id put it behind my head and between my legs and slide across the dance floor. Calvin Newborn- Atlantic Journal-Constitution
Agree, and trust me, you're wasting your time expressing the truth on here. You'll find that youtube reeks with racism and people spewing racism and lies of inferior and superior.
look ! im not a racist. i have irish, nordic, saxon, arabic, and probably about 5 other races in my blood, as far as im concerned, music has no colour. its got to the point where every style of music has something pinched and borrowed from everywhere. just hate the fact that people say artists like elvis STOLE music from the blacks rather than saying he was INSPIRED by black music. if you ask me thats racist as hell, because if he were black, he would be a pioneer of music, not a music thief
Im sure they can but whenever I see Blacks facing racism they hardly ever retort with racism back their pissed but they still dont use racism. I never understood that mate. I mean Ive seen Blacks be racist on YT, but very rarely.
housepate. there is something wrong with you. why cant you just accept the fact that black artist's was inspired and coppied elvis, just like elvis was inspired and coppied his black hero's too? this is just so pathetic, i never even started this, it was some tit saying ( ELVIS STOLE HIS MUSIC OFF THE BLACKS) what would they say if he were mixed race? only his white half stole music from the blacks. sick of you racist cunts, why does everything have to be about black n white?
Oh so now since Elvis says he "borrowed" black music in his own words now you say Blacks stole his moves? Pathetic Mate. Is that all you Americans can do, lie cheat and steal Pretty sad.
no im not you little fuck head, BLACK RNB artists from the 50's and 60's say they coppied his dance moves and stage performances. its in black and white in books, on the net, its everywhere if you open your eyes. even fucking little richie talks about it in a tv interview. james brown gives elvis a mention in a interview too. and how can elvis be a southern racist when his whole life was based on his love for black music. so because he's white he stole black music? RACIST FOOL.
if elvis was black, he would be classed as cool, but because he was white, he's classed as a geek who stole black music . this is fucked, im having a rant about elvis lol. look friend, black artists coppied off elvis too, its a fact. i dont think they were gagged and made to lie in interviews. even jimi hendrix makes a reference to elvis in 1 of his many interviews. anyway, gona go sit on the toilet and stuff my face with burgers. , no more comments plz unless its about hiphop electro. cheers
most 80's electro artists was inspired by groups like kraftwerk. and thats a fact. i cant call this track dub, i would call it a backing track or instrumental track. would still give it 10/10 for studio skill and production
so thats what you think dub is mate? and where is the bassline in this track? if you want to know what dub is, have a listen to lee scratch perry, or an album called dub me crazy. most dub is reggie based and uses stringed bass guitars, with shit loads of fx and delays. this is just an instrumental track, and yes i do like it, but it is 100% not dub
Why does have to be racial? if you don't like, then don't like it but it doesn't have to be racial. oh by the way, this is one of the greatest rap songs in the history of the world. if you don't like fine move on, get over it, rap music is here to stay!
well said. getting sick of this youtube race shit. music is music, i banned my 8 y old girl from youtube, because she was called a cracker and a white nigger for saying she liked a r,n,b song
Why does have to be racial? if you don't like, then don't like it but it doesn't have to be racial. oh by the way, this is one of the greatest rap songs in the history of the world. if you don't like fine move on, get over it, rap music is here to stay!
You know, Afrika Bambaataa and others, are the people who gave birth to the Electro scene in the U.K. and Europe. Thanks Afrika for bands like Kraftwerk, Daft Punk, L.F.O., just to name a few German bands.
Never hear this dub before, it's pretty cool.
Music knows no colour, thanks for the funk, my African friends,
im not into elvis, but if you know or have read anything about him, you will know he never stole black music. he was inspired by black music. plus alot of white kids was making that kind of music too, so you cant really call it black music
not black music... black songs.. that other people wrote. They just couldnt afford to publish them as they were poor southerners of the 20's to early 50's. They were written before he performed them in his time. Stolen.
Elvis purchased the music of African American Otis Blackwell and had his "Gladys Music" company hire talented black songwriter Claude Demetrius, ( and he was paid well) Elvis invited black performer Ivory Joe Hunter to visit Graceland and the two spent the day together, and stayed friends for life. he did not steal it
certain parts in American society, including many black people, have branded Presley as no more than a racist Southerner who stole black music. black R&B artist Jackie Wilson said, "A lot of people have accused Elvis of stealing the black man's music, when in fact, almost every black solo entertainer copied their stage mannerisms from Elvis and his way of song writing ." FACT
so tell me friend, what am i saying that is racist and untrue? if this is regarding elvis? everything i said is true. you can look it up for yourself. the internet is great for info. what i said is fact, look up jackie wilson and elvis instead of letting other people do the thinking for you. i only commented because a mindless fool said elvis stole his music off black people. and its bullshit about elvis being a racist pig too
guess it must be you who is retarded son for listening to black racist gossip and myth and not finding out about elvis yourself. im not into elvis, i read alot and will reaserch what i read
in fact, this song is based on work by Kraftwerk, not the other way around. In fact, the use of drum machines can be tied to this song, which comes from kraftwerk. The electro scene helped afrika, in the end.

All you Kraftwerk people...yes they influenced Bam...and yes Planet Rock has a lot of Kraftwerk in it. But if Planet Rock did not exist then music would not have been influenced by Kraftwerk the same way this did. Planet Rock tore the place apart.... dance music was never the same again. The sound that comes out of a speaker is not black or white it's music. Love the music. This is the Greatest song ever....period.

"But if Planet Rock did not exist then music would not have been influenced by Kraftwerk the same way this did."but planet rock only exist BECAUSE kraftwerk change music.without kraftwerk you will never have africa bambaataa's music.
2 members of kraftwerk hold a patent for the first electro drum machine.
so for me,kraftwerk is the reason why we got electro-robot-rap music in the 80's.
better listen to people like kurtis blow.he make music with his own hands and ideas.

These sounds were brand new never-heard-before at the time! This song here is actually structured the same way as ten million house songs that would come many years after -- it's a "jack track" serving the purpose of the dancefloor! A DJ's tool, for layering and mixing, structured with numerous breaks, builds, drops & rhythms, this was FRESHHHH

ok! now we have got to the point where elvis watched and learned from the masters and made it big, from what he had learned from the black kids, he perfected on stage, then black RNB artists also learned a few tricks from elvis too, then other white artist learned and coppied off the black artists, and it goes on and on.......at the end of the day you are basically saying if your white and make music that is not folk or classical, you stole your music off the blacks.

"why does everything have to be about black n white? " Because Yankee idiots like you make it so. You Americans jump in with some racist BS and then when your called on it you cry to mama. It is a pattern that I have always seen Americans do. How are Blacks gonna copy what they have already have. That is the dumbest thing that I have ever heard. It is like saying the Native Americans are squatters, when the land was theirs in the first place.

I have no Idea why some people try to take credit for everything, like no one else in the world can make something worth while. Save the Tarzan routine, for the other racist blokes. Everyone in the civilized world knows that Elvis borrowed heavily from Blacks, even the Beatles mate borrowed from the Blacks. The Blacks practically invented Rock and Roll, am I crying about it?.......
housepate1 2 years ago
exactly mate. borrowed, not stole just like the coloured ppl coppied his stage acts. but because he was white, he stole it. i make electro and other stuff and im inspired by loads of black artists. does that make me a music thief too? elvis did not steal, he was inspired, he was not racist, the music industry was racist. ps the beatles borrowed from indian artists too and im from UK :)

"Calvin Newborn was one of them. He remembered a teenage Elvis sneaking into a black bar outside Memphis where Calvin played guitar in a family band in the fifties.

Sometimes Id put it behind my head and between my legs and slide across the dance floor. Calvin Newborn- Atlantic Journal-Constitution

Elvis purchased the music of African American Otis Blackwell and had his "Gladys Music" company hire talented black songwriter Claude Demetrius, ( and he was paid well) Elvis invited black performer Ivory Joe Hunter to visit Graceland and the two spent the day together, and stayed friends for life. he did not steal it

certain parts in American society, including many black people, have branded Presley as no more than a racist Southerner who stole black music. black R&B artist Jackie Wilson said, "A lot of people have accused Elvis of stealing the black man's music, when in fact, almost every black solo entertainer copied their stage mannerisms from Elvis and his way of song writing ."
