Cool Herc didn't create the break, that was Grand Master Flash who literally engineered it. Cool Herc was one of the fathers who brought the house parties. When would mainstream get this right?
Spain wont shxt either. Some places was better than others but its like using that arguement that some masters were good even tho they are practicing human trafficking as well.
I would have liked the same thing to have happened to rap in Spanish, true rap never became popular unlike in the United States, until a few years ago here in South America only the supposed "Rap" of "daddy yankee" that rappers did not consider sounded. rap but for the rest of the world they see it that way... We have groups like Violadores del Verso, Sfdk, Nach, Canserbero, Akapellah, etc etc etc, it only started to become popular 7 years ago thanks to the boom in freestyle battles but like that Even the freestylers who became successful often started doing reggaeton since HipHop is not very well known, they only start because they like to improvise and it is partly a fashion!
What does this tell you about the GREATNESS of BLACK PEOPLE JESUS knew what he was doing when he CREATED BLACKS FIRST and I FEEL We'll be the LAST ONES STANDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's not Christianity, it's called Satanism! You don't shape Christianity, Christianity shapes you! Anything outside of scripture is a cult! "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, Male or Female, Free or Slave" for a Christian. We no longer think of ourselves as anything other than what God has called us. Once you repent of the sin of shaping God into your own image, you then are brought back into redemption through Christ Jesus. We must accept our roles as God directs and obey His commandments.
Selective service and expanding realities of needs and intersections of insights and implementation… health, climate and tools…. It’s a lot of layers and lenses.
Back in the day, this made sense. Today, it's racist. If a group of white people did the same thing they would be accused of racism. Theres no rights in America today that white people have and black dont. But white people surely dont get affirmative action or reparations LOL..Real equality means no affirmative action.
Dr. King's 'love your enemy' credo can have multiple distinct meanings. In one of his speeches, he specified that blacks' love for our oppressors should be primarily impersonal and "spiritual" in nature, as opposed to emotional or erotic. Unfortunately I'm a biracial female who's instinctively mainly attracted to guys like my dad who is white. I'm phenotypically black so the general public naturally assumes that I'm compatible with other members of the general black population. That's fine. People can think what they want. However, by incorporating these intimate personal regulations into US policy, King wasn't just PRESUMPTIVE. He was COERCIVE. And that's an affront to my chastity and virtue. That's a dead giveaway that Dr. King really was a liar, and a puppet spokesman for slavery proponents. Even if the rest of his egalitarian mission was sincere which it wasn't, that particular issue is a deal breaker. So like the Gold Watch segment from Pulp Fiction, I'll stop at absolutely nothing to effectively abolish this policy which is of supreme importance to me personally. I have no actual power nor resources to accomplish this. That's okay. I'll just use other people's wars. Whatever.
Dr. King's implausible violence-begets-violence premise compounded his ulterior motive of domestic terrorism against my kind. His eroticism edict is pointedly violent towards unassimilable biracial people in particular. This in turn denotes an inherent lack of self-respect on whites' part. Yet they are so pompous as to think themselves inviolable.
Also, blacks' employment rights are not necessarily distinct from slavery. Slavery itself was a form of employment. Jobs are only advantageous if they generate a net financial gain. If they incur a net loss, they are indeed a component of a slave system. Since 1964, the wealth inequality between the races hasn't narrowed. It has instead widened exponentially. That's because on an aggregate basis, civil rights policies actually siphon funds OUT of the black community at a faster rate than blacks can recover it through employment. I have a B.A. in Economics so I understand this process. It's a lot like the Jim Crow sharecropping system which was technically paid labor. However the employees' income was offset by compulsory and excessive expenses, forcing them into insurmountable debt.
However some Asian ethnic groups have fared extremely well in America since de jure employment discrimination was formally abolished. They're a different kind of people. Decades ago, when China was still considered a "developing" country, their new immigrants typically lived in extremely crowded conditions by choice, doubling the standard occupancy rate for apartments they rented. This helped to compensate for the inevitably that America's housing prices were outpacing its income growth. By reducing housing costs on the front end, they saved up enough money to nail down quality real estate down the line.
America was founded on the principle of self-determination. However unlike blacks, whites collectively had a foundation to self-determine WITH. America outright granted them free or discounted real estate periodically throughout history. If you try to self-determine without replicating this foundation as closely as possible, you'll achieve drastically different results.
America still does bleed Asians dry in the housing market, to the greatest extent possible. Over the past 40 years, the housing cost-to-income ratio has doubled in America. In effect this bolsters the advantage of whites' preexisting free real estate, while making it next to impossible for blacks to improve our standard of living no matter how hard we work. However in California, real estate prices are unnecessarily excessive even by US standards. It's racist. Period.
Because they didn't 😂 they were onlookers and spectators 😂 they learned from black people and emulated the moves😅 black people taught Latinos hip hop and break dancing
Any religion or movement that seeks to classify people according to skin color and use that to divide them is fundamentally incorrect and a complete abomination. A world of peace cannot emerge by using racism to try and fight racism. You cannot fight oppression with more oppression. There is only one race.
The Watts Prophets were the first to use the word rap in their 1971 album and title composition Rappin' Black in a White World, and their hard-hitting 1969 album Black Voices: On the Streets of Watts was named one of the top 40 ground- breaking albums of all-time by Rolling Stone magazine.
Very insightful. It seems so absurd that there was a time when some Whites didn't believe that Blacks were capable of playing basketball at the same level as them.
Jamaican here. Disco King Mario was Throwing "jams" with B-Boys (Bronxdale Boys) dancing in the schoolyards of Bronxdale when young Herc was just a fan carrying Mario's record crates. Stop the lies.
Its no secret that he was a Freemason. One get informed about Freemasonry and understands who he was. Book References: Freemasonry by Leon de Poncins./// A Study in American Freemasonry by Arthur Preuss./// The Occult War by Leon de Poncins.///
No one cares if he was gay. He was racist, elitist. Baldwin was beyond eloquent. His voice, the myriad of valid points he made - he annihilated buckley (pompous ass)
Like many others in the comments, I stumbled upon this video while doing homework. However, I must admit that it is one of the most inspirational videos I have ever seen.
Rap is talking rythmically in time to music, hip hop is using a looped section of another piece of music to create a backing track, they are not the same thing or interchangable terms. Rap is much deeper, more diverse and started much earlier
