  • Millionaire rappers today like Jay Z, Snoop, Dre and more should donate a few million to him to help his illness as they wouldn't be millionaires today if it wasn't for Kool Herc. They owe him and they should definitely help the reason why they didn't end up dead on the streets years ago.

  • @70mexrican This is an English BBC TV documentary made by Alan Yentob in 1984.

  • I remember the Bronx as a kid,...my mother was raised there and we used to visit often. I had no idea all this was happening. I did buy my first Troops in New York and brought them back to LA. Started scratching on my mom's 45's.....She hated when I did that....Im 40 now and I still DJ from time to time. I still have my 1200's and like 6 old school mixers. Thanx Kool Herc for your creativity.

  • What year was this video made?

  • @andrethethrashe Get your white supremacist racist ass off this video

The goal was to show we are all Africans deposited all over the America's and Caribbean to show the influence based on Africa than land territories which 500 + years ago we didn't have a choice it where we now call home. ONENESS ! 1 example also "NOTORIOUS BIG" his parents are from JAMAICA.The list goes on.
