Latino Culture might have influenced hip hop, but taking a deeper dive, Puerto Rican music, Dominican music, and Cuban music has all derived from Black music. The essence is brown* folks music ❤️
FBAs created it and dominates the space more than any other. Everyone just wants to he a culture vulture. We created it and genres before it. Blues, rock, jazz, funk, soul, pop, and R&B. We've got more too 😏 we have the most robust culture and these others tryna take it is actually kinda cool. Speaks volumes to our greatness. Everyone hates us but wants to be us 😂😂 DELICIOUS
@@connerwhite5351 lol I wouldn't argue the creation of it. there's been black rappers that have been filmed while tap dancing (back in the days of black & white film) . my point was that Puerto Ricans did have a strong influence on hip hop but not in creating it, and to add to my point all of Latin American music comes from people of color! whether it's African descendants In the Caribbean islands PR DR and Cuba (Salsa,Merengue,dembo & reggeaton) or South Americans that essentially created Bachata. all of our music comes from people of color! so even if Puerto Ricans influenced hip hop at it's core it was a culture of people of color.
He's speaking from as a non-American Black man, yes in the Carribean y'all probably did influence each other; but hip hop is Black American born. Non-American Black ppl are even influenced by American Black ppl, everything and everyone is. Hip hop is not spanish, case and point: look what Jennifer Lopez did with that Motown tribute.
I agree. I like that Busta is reppin his culture. Because i really do appreciate his culture. But we have a strong culture as well. Hip hop been around since the early 70's. And it started here.
No, Ricans have influenced HipHop since the very beginning in every way so did Jamaicans. It's Black music yet we developed it with them. Remember that was in the Bronx, NY. From there yes in other cities maybe Blacks primarily put their mark on it but facts are facts.
@@santotheephraimite6840 Grandmaster Caz is one of the earliest rappers in the Hip Hop scene and he has said Ricans were not involved like that in the beginning, maybe 1 or 2. This looked down on Hip Hop. Crazy Legs said the same. I believe them over misinformed internet rumors. And blacks in other states are the reason blacks in NYC had anything to work with to create a Hip Hop in the first place. Our impact on Hip Hop was there before Hip Hop itself was. You people who aren't African American really need to watch who you argue about our musical history with because I will slay you.
Motown was Black American musicians, song writers and singers. Jimi Hendricks, Little Richard, Chubby Checker, and Sly Stone are Black rock & roll. Rapper's Delight & The Message are hip-hop at its genesis. Both are SAMPLES from Black American artists. Isn't Busta a 5 percenter? Aren't 5% brothers suppose to be enlightened? And speaking of culture, isn't Jamaican culture HEAVILY influenced by BRITISH culture? What setting was he in for this interview? Entertainers and politicians tend to big-up the demographic they find themselves in. In other words, was he in a heavily populated Latino environment when he was speaking?
so you are upset that he gives credit to latinos for influencing him? hmmm.. hmmm thats funny. but again, this world has a long way to go before we leave racism huh?
@@soramirez5473 What Latinos???? You see you have to bring receipts bro you can't throw out some blanket statement with no Proof. Who are the Latino founding fathers of Hip-hop Culture?

Ha ha Busta Rhymes is trying to attract an audience. I love Hispanic/Latino people but I don’t appreciate all the hateful comments. African-Americans are pioneers of the many elements of Hip Hop and Rap music. We always dominated the rap game and created rap subgenres including the current Trap Rap which originated by African-Americans. Lil John, Mannie Fresh, Dj Paul were all pioneers of the trap rap genre. We also originated many musical genres: Country music Barbershop music Blues Bebop Boogie woogie Delta Blues Disco Funk Go-go Gospel music Groove Hip hop House music Jazz Jug band music Negro spirituals/Spiritual Neo soul New jack swing Quiet storm Ragtime Contemporary R&B Rhythm and blues Rock and roll Skiffle Soul music Southern rap Swing Techno Trap music PBR&B Zydeco Here is a list of dances we created just from 2010-2020: • Krumping • Turfing • Jerkin' • Cat Daddy • Dougie • Jookin • Wop • Gas Pedal • Graham • Dunham • Ailey • Bounce • Twerking • Dab • Milly Rock[9] • Futsal Shuffle 2020 • Gangsta Walking • Renegade Tik Tok • Whip Nae Nae song has almost 2 billion views on youtube.

I disagree with the the Americans have no culture part in General. Blacks, Latinos, Native Americans, Asians, Whites, etc. All have their own culture in the US and together form American Culture. The difference with whites is it changes from ethnicity to ethnicity far more something you don't generally see in the Black Community that often safe for relatively Recent immigrants into America. Irish Americans have a distinct culture as do German Americans and Cajuns etc. Then of course there is regional culture with New England and California having different cultures same is true for the South. Then also you have The different classes and cultural divide there. Culture is actually everywhere in America and exists in all races, ethnic groups, and religions.
@Major Key It is a shame that Whites steal from the Black Community and claim things as their own. Music, Fashion, Food, etc. It seems to never end unfortunately.
African American Jazz and blues influenced reggae. Their wouldn’t be reggaeton if it wasn’t for Afro American culture. Also, it was James Brown who pioneered HipHop, Dj Kool Herc only introduced a style of mixing. The turntables came from disco which is also African American music. For a people that supposedly don’t have no culture, African Americans undeniably influenced the whole world.

Busta Rhymes needs to listen to what his Caribbean people who were interviewed said..they stated where they even got Raggae from..And why is it that people who talking like him don't reference Leslie Kong? My Jamaican neighbor stated "Caribbeans dont even know their history , Asians influenced music and the food"..

People do your history it’s clear Puerto Rican’s and Africans and black people are closer than they want you to think we were all the same people which is why we have stuck together throughout the years. The young lords a Puerto Rican organization that was started in the late 60s modeled themselves after black panthers and were allies of the black panthers. Do your research people please. We’ve always been close and it has to do with the African ancestors blood and other ancestors blood running in our veins that we share. Puerto Rican’s helped create hip hop in the Bronx along with our black brothers and sisters. Please people don’t get it twisted and really research why we are so close in our relations.

@@Regularspic ricans did not create pop locking. African Americans on the west coast were pop locking on Soul Train in the 70s before Hip Hop even existed on the east.
Rap and Hip-Hop are both Black AmericanDOS creations, however they're two different things with different histories. Ninety nine percent of the time when people say Hip-Hop what they really mean is Rap, the "Hip-Hop" term needs to be fazed out when discussing music. Technically, Hip-Hop is a youth movement that was birthed in the Bronx and died there. The Hip-Hop term has been misused and thrown around loosely and inappropriately for decades, it's caused confusion and that's one of the reasons Rap doesn't have a proper standard history as a music genre. You don't associate the creation of Blues or Jazz with any type of separate youth or cultural movement so why would you do it with Rap?
@@j-short5431 it's facts nigga 😂😂😂 no u didn't, what about black American culture who doesn't know about it😂😂😂😂 Busta is Jamaican check this out nigga Editor’s Note: The original title of this piece read “The ‘Father of Black History’ Was Afro-Puerto Rican.” Although Arturo Schomburg played an important part in collecting Black history, the title has been changed to reflect our recognition that Carter G. Woodson has been widely cited with that title. There’s a building in Harlem that houses, some say, the largest collection of Black history in the world. At the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, you can see and touch original documents like the Malcolm X papers and the Nate King Cole papers. The center also holds specialized exhibits, film screenings, and panel discussions. The center is named after Arturo Schomburg, who sold his personal collection of books, pamphlets, manuscripts, and data to the New York Public Library in 1926. Schomburg was a Puerto Rican-born Black historian living in New York City at the time of the Harlem Renaissance. He arrived to the city from San Juan, Puerto Rico at the age of 17 in 1891, and from the get go, he began to navigate being Black and Latino in the United States. “Here we have a Black man with a German last name with a Spanish accent in NYC in the 19th century,” says Vanessa K. Valdés, associate professor at the City College of New York and author of Diasporic Blackness: The Life and Times of Arturo Alfonso Schomburg. “And so all of that, his very being challenges what we think of blackness.”One of the Fathers of Black History Was Afro-Puerto Rican By JANICE LLAMOCA JUN 30, 2017 HISTORY RACE Share 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 what about black culture nigga 😂😂😂 80% of black Brothers don't even know their own black history, us Ricans have to show u niggas😂😂😂😂😂😂dude🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷✌️👍💪 Malcolm X was raised down the street from me dudley mass 😂😂😂South Bronx is the birthplace of Hip-Hop, it comes to no surprise that the intermingling of Puerto Rican and West Indies along with Black styles are the main contributors to the basic Hip-Hop essence.The group also included Prince Whipper Whip (the first Latino rapper), Dot-a-Rock, and A1 DJ Pambaataa, (the first female hip-hop DJ), named in homage to Zulu Nation’s pioneering hip-hop godfather Afrika Bambaataa.

Alongside Grandmaster Caz, DJ Disco Wiz is also credited for being the first DJ to create a “mixed plate” (Hip-Hop’s first mixed dub recording) in 1977. DJ Disco Wiz wrote a book titled ‘It’s Just Begun: The Epic Journey of DJ Disco Wiz, Hip Hop’s First Latino DJ’ in 2009, he told Village Voice that same year, “People were opinionated about my role as a predominantly Spanish person doing something that was perceived as black culture,” because “Most Latinos were listening to disco and salsa then.”Luis Cedeño, famously known as DJ Disco Wiz, was the first Latino DJ.

Not only did you have dudes like Prince Whipper Whip of the Fantastic Five, Devestating Tito & Master OC of the Fearless Four and Prince Markie Dee of the Fat Boys in rap, but to say Latinos (particularly Puerto Ricans in the Bronx) weren't a part of the development of Hip Hop culture would be simply misguided. There was a heavy Latino presence in in B-Boying and Graffiti and there were some DJs with big impact like DJ Charlie Chase of Cold Crush. Busta is talking a bit more about Caribbean drum and percussion rhythms and how they translated into the early sound development and influence in hip hop. Those roots, even in the Latin Caribbean islands trace back to Africa. Science says all life does. I think you've got to give a lot of credit to funk drummers and the creators of all of the music (worldwide) that was being spun into breakbeats during the early development.
Yeah and at the same time the majority of Puerto Rican’s were being racist to black people and calling them Niggers with all the White folk. Grandmaster Caz used to be picked on by Puerto Rican’s playing Timbales when he threw his block parties. But surprise surprise when the culture started getting popular us brown people joined in. Hip Hop will and always will be like all music genres that came out the US;African American. I concede that the Americans that moulded the culture were majority British territory Carribean....Jamaica and Barbados ; like Kool Herc and Flash but you can’t argue with facts, it’s not a point of view. I’m grateful to the community that gave us these wonderful gifts and I wouldn’t dare try and claim it as my own. Enjoy the music.

I want to spread and plant seeds of love. From what I have read, Activist such as Luis Moreno and Charlotta Bass have mentioned that African Americans And Mexican Americans have gone through similar injustices. They have been put against each other because loving each other together and being strong together is a threat to the systemic injustices that we we live. This is why I loved the Last Wakanda Forever Movie. I have to say that it’s ignorance and what was implanted in us by the people in high ranking politicians like the neo- nazis white supremacists who were hiding behind a suit and in a tie though out history “from boots to suits”. It has made these two groups dislike each other through generations. Especially strong to dislike and hurt each other in the jail system. Love to all people! Including Asian, Indian and everyone else we share this world with. Who I am and what do I know right I have been asked where I’m from. I’m Mexican American and we all look different. We have so many mixes. I just took a dna test that shows that I have 9% Senegal 🇸🇳 where they had a center for slave trade. Another percentage is from Spain and and Portugal, Iran, European Jewish and Mexican Michoacán indigenous. It was shocking to learn that I have ancestors that lived and experienced the slave trade. The first book I ever really read was “to be a slave”. And I was angry and cried by the stories. This book and watching “Roots”opened up more curiosity on how people can be so cruel. I became more interested to learn about history. I have to say that in Mexico and other countries people African descent continue to experience the effect, disadvantage, and the systemic injustices through generation because of slavery. They are looked down on just because of the darker skin. If you are Mexican you most likely have a percentage of African DNA having ancestors who were African. What so bizarre is that in Mexico racism is so common. The light Mexicans that look more European/white although might have a high percentage or African and indigenous roots, will be favored and have higher paying jobs and are most likely to be get roles in movies and novelas. They only hire the dark skinned that look more like an Afro-Mexican or dark indigenous-Mexicans as servants and criminals in roles. Media has made it appear that being lighter is being better. Brain washed people. My mom saw a baby with blue eyes and blonde hair and made a comment that the baby looked like an Angel. I’m looking at my moreno baby and I say, mom all babies look like angels. Also watch theseRU-vid video on how Latinos helped slaves escape Underground Railroad. Untold history, and about Mexico’s Afro Mexican President. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cU2A5zX-8jo.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-exWbZRZHca0.html
Black Americans are very proud of our accomplishments with the beginning stages of hip hop.. we did that. Please stop including other cultures because the Puerto Ricans do not include us with their culture’s accomplishments…Please stop !!!!
Busta had a unique flow and delivery, full of energy. All he's saying is that his Caribbean culture added to his uniqueness and he influenced others which is true.
This nigga is just tripping... I respect him as an MC, but not when you cross the line.. We get our culture based on being in the USA and our African roots. He saying Latino, what does that mean, does he really know.. Latin American countries are multicultural mixes between white, black and brown and yellow.. BEFORE YOU TALK MY NIGGA KNOW THE HISTORY
Funny thing is everyone arguing about this and that wether who did this or that and the majority of us wether from Puerto Rico, Jamaica, America are from the same haplogroup of DNA which is e1b1a just bcuz we live in a different regions and divided in different cultures we still come from the same common ancestors.
So many racist blacks hating on the comments smh tbh you people are the only most racist type of people there is white people be cool af and welcoming. ART DOESN'T HAVE A COLOR NOR A BOX IS FREE
Someone name 4 inventions Latino or carribean contributed to society that we use everyday. I’ll name 4 fba. Cell phone. Stop light. Air conditioner elevator. And gooo
Listen I love my West Indian/Latino brothers and sisters, however y'all are not more influential than us Black Americans point blank period, foh he's buggin Michael Jackson alone is bigger than any caribbean star ever foh y'all can have that tropical shit, truth be told if yall was so much better y'all wouldn't leave your countries foh 😂
@@YyYy-uh2sv first off we don't know if any of that is true secondly see how u have to reach for something outside of my point lol like I said Michael Jackson alone is bigger than any Caribbean, shit I don't even have to use M.J, lol James Brown is bigger and more influential than any Caribbean, the list goes on
What he says is true but there is such thing as american culture and it is black culture as in rock n roll, soul, r and b, blues and country , jazz, etc. America is the biggest influence in the world and most of it comes from the Motherland AFRICA! None of this would not exist if it were not for African influence period! Get your facts straight Busta and I am latino, Colombian/american
AMERICA IS HIGHLY INFLUENCED BY THE NATIVE AMERICANS AND THE AFRICANS WERE INSPIRED BY THE NATIVE AMERICANS..... IF IT WASNT FOR THE NATIVE AMERICANS THE UNITED STATES WOULDNT BE THE SAME....... I HEARD AFRICAN SALSA LOL IT REALLY SUCKED ASS......
He wasn't talking about American Blacks he was talking about America period. He said all our shit is America's culture and it's true. Blacks and Latinos brought culture to this dry ass place.
Boy Marvin Gaye the isley Brothers Sam Cooke Curtis Mayfield Michael jackson prince wasn't from no island. Black Americans influenced the world yall wanted to be like us. Bust never identified as Jamaican until recently.
Puerto Rican, Blacks and other Carribean cultures birthed hip hop in the BX. Jamaican & Puerto Ricans share a Taino blood. We are Carribean and Poppin. I love all my Carribean people
Black Americans created Hip-Hop. Jamaicans are descendants of West and Central Africans and also have some Northwestern European blood. They don't have Taino DNA lol
@@chosenone3527 many are credited for birthing hip hop in MY CITY...The Bronx! A Jamaican man along with his Rican and Black Americans brothers birthed hip hop. Do your fucking homework P.S Taino Indians resided in Jamaica too. We are Carribean. Please sit this one out.
@@PopCultureCarnivore1Hip-Hop is apart of Black American Culture. Black Americans created Blues, Jazz, R&B, Disco, Funk, Soul Gospel, Rock&Roll and Spirituals. I don't think they needed the help of Puerto Ricans to create some Hip-Hop lol
@@down-b8197 we're the DJs, the beat makers, the mixers, the producers, and b-boys. Do your homework..WE DID AND WE ARE SO PROUD. Jamaica stand up, Puerto Rico stand up!!!! 🎊🎉🪅
@@jaysoreal9292 the1900 you had the jubilee's that was rapping Kool herc said in his documentary that he got the 2 turntable and the mixer from the disco dj the break beat started from black Americans dance to a curtain part of the beat such as James brown music hiphop is James brown music but not just James brown music it's black Americans music
Prince can play all instruments plus Stevie Wonder was the hit maker for motown and many other artist. Plus Michael Jackson in a class by himself. need to do more research. Caribbean and Latinos have their talents. American Blacks stand out more because indeed they are the salt that spices things up.
Damn....Busta kept it Real and spit the tru facts. At least i know he ain't prejudice. I had Jamaican friends on my block back in the days who had a weed spot and were mad cool with the puertoricans and we were the majority on the block. Never anybody on the block had beef with them. Them niggas kept it real and that carribean feeling was there. 💯💪🔫🗽
Hip-Hop isn't a genre of music...it's a 1970s Bronx subculture that died out in the early 80s. Rapping/Rap was a part of Black American society DECADES before the Hip-Hop movement existed.
I know, Busta Rhymes is waking up to Social Media craze like, WTF did I just do?? 😆 😆 However, that's not what he meant thought. I think everyone's blowing it out of proportion.
@@EVERLASTING12000 He didn't say ADOS/FBAs didn't have Culture. Busta's Dad is FBA/ADOS, just his Mom is from the Caribbean, and Busta himself is born in Brooklyn. What he meant, is white Americans don't have a culture, and are copycats
The first major hip-hop deejay was DJ Kool Herc (Clive Campbell), an 18-year-old immigrant who introduced the huge sound systems of his native Jamaica to inner-city parties. Using two turntables, he melded percussive fragments from older records with popular dance songs to create a continuous flow of music.
Reggae was also heavily influenced by American Jazz and blues. Afro Americans created almost every music genre Jazz, rock, house music, r&b, rap, hiphop, soul, gospel etc. dj kool herc did not invent hiphop.
@@OGARYTV Dj kool herc did not invent hiphop he may have introduced the instruments, but the art of rapping and rhyming started through jazz and blues.
I think your way over your head, Cuba is the originator and promoter of this fine music, although it does consist of African drums it also has European trumpets and French jazz influence but originally composed in Cuba 🇨🇺
If y’all do your research you’d find that hip hop culture was created in the Bronx by Puerto Rican’s and hijacked by blacks, I’m not saying he’s 100% right but y’all are being completely idiotic saying Hispanics don’t have a place in hip hop nor aided in helping it when you can clearly see that in the beginning when hip hop was being made many DJs, break dancers, rappers, were Puerto Rican/Hispanics and when they were kicked out of these things they formed free styling to which was taken from them as well, Puerto Rican’s/Hispanics were robbed
Man, stop it. None of these things were exclusively Puerto Rican. You are nuts . You are not even referencing anything. Crazy legs was not surrounded by all Puerto Ricans.
Mexicans that help the west coast rap and give their culture to be part of that rap scene and then some people claim it as their culture are like 👁️👄👁️
lets see here . ONE.Brazilian Martial arts is 80% of break dancing.and heavily pioneered by Puerto Ricans. Brazilian and puerto rican =LATINO major latino influence check Two. Graffiti/wild style/ Modern Graffiti. Heavily pioneered by Puerto rican artists major latino influence check Three.Djing was not invented by a black person I'm not going to provide an argunment on this not significant latino influence and last but not least Rapping/Mcing. I want to say Modern rapping originated in nyc however rhythm speaking has existed for thousands of years. ill give you that one tho. but it isn't African American for sure in conclusion your wrong.
Gangeroladico damn bro you telling lies like that 😂😂😂 stop being so ignorant we gave y’all some tools and how you do things as well I see you the type to say young lords copy some black too huh 😂😂you a joke for saying this this ain’t facts 🤦🏻♂️😭
Just Me WE NATIVE AMERICANS HAVE MUSIC ON OUR VEINS REGGEA WAS HIGHLY INFLUENTED BY THE NATIVE AMERICANS...... EUROPEAN WANTS TO ERASE US FROM THE HISTORY AND MAP BUT CARRIBEAN MUSIC ARE HIGHLY INFLUENTED BY THE NATIVES WE HAVE MUSIC ON OUR BLOOD AND VEINS......
Johnny Rutz LOL THIS BLACK FOLKS TRYING TO SAY THEY INVENTED THE MUSIC FOR US...... LOOOOOOL WE NATIVE AMERICANS ALREADY HAVE MUSIC ON OUR VEINS ITS UNIVERSAL......
Latinos copied what Black Americans were doing in NYC. Who are the Latinos in 1969-1973 that played a major role in the foundation of Hip-hop Culture??? Give Me a name because you're just talking nonsense no facts no receipts 🥱
@god says Breaking was created by African-Americans. Most black people don't want to unite with Latinos because most of Latin America is largely Anti-black. You guys could unite with white people though.
And we don’t shy away from that. First thing we’re taught in school is that we’re all decent from black, native and Spanish people. At least here in Puerto Rico.
Hip Hop is influenced by Blaçk and Boricuas 🇵🇷 because Boricuas 🇵🇷 are Americans 🇺🇸🇵🇷 even if their born in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷. Every other latinos are born immigrants in their country. With that being said Boricuas 🇵🇷 been here since 1917. Boricuas 🇵🇷 come in all shades ✊🏽✊🏿✊🏾✊🏻✊✊🏽✊🏻✊✊🏽✊🏿 I'm sure the dark skin ones like Roberto Clemente 🇵🇷 Alpo Martinez 🇵🇷 and LaLa Anthony 🇵🇷 are looked as not Boricua 🇵🇷 because they look blaçk.
Funny! So from hambone (juba), to jazz, to R n B (Rock n Roll), to James Brown first dropping the beat on the 1, to James Brown literally rapping in the 60s (Black n Proud), to the American south completely ripping hip hop back from NYC, he derives the view point that somehow in the 80s Afrcian American music culture was started by Carribean and Latino people. He's smoked to much Ganga!
Thank bout when the slave were brought hear we have the drums Kora Bango xiaphone and djeme but , the slave holder's didn't allowed them to used there instruments it was sending singles to other slave to escape. Instead they used there voice to escape to freedom.
It's not about hip hop being originated by one race, that being the african americans. It's really about how other races contributed to hip hop and made it to what it is today. Don't you dare think the african americans did it on their own. There were latinos, puerto ricans, of course the Jamaicans, and just flat out black americans (especially in the bronx were it was a diverse place). We all contributed to hip hop, made it popular, changed it with meaning and mixing beats like DJ'ing, and boosted it's popularity. If that shit that you just said were the case, than hip hop would not be like it is today. Don't you ever think hip hop as being for a specific race or originating from a specific race. That shit just ignorant bullshit.
Andrew Navarro The issue that I have is when people who have a small influence start thinking that they're originators or become homogenous when talking about hip hop but won't protest for civil rights. Hip Hop was started by Black Americans as revolutionary music. If you're not about revolution, than your culture was just a theme to another beat or video. "Everyone wants to be nigga until it's time to be a nigga." #soft Everything black Americans touch we revolutionize and trend set. sports Music Fashion Civil Rights Invention
+mtdanielliebrown The problem with your ignorance is the fact that you are unaware the Puerto Rican acknowledges his Black DNA and has been a neighbor to your Black blood for centuries, we cried together, struggled together, worked together, died together, lived together, rolled together, ate together, made improvements together, laughed together, partied together, learned from one another, and even fucked together!!! . Both Black and Puerto Ricans resided as neighbors, cousins, inlaws, sons, mothers, babysitters, Brothers, and etc in the South Bronx for many decades before the creation of Hip Hop and therefore Puerto Ricans along with Afro-Puerto Ricans have had a huge involvement with the Hip Hop creation and culture. It’s bad enough “Latinos” don’t want to accept Puerto Ricans as being also Latino due to our strong genetic Black genes and culture and now we have to deal with the ignorance of very own brothers portraying us today as though we’re Mexican or Whites!! I tell you one thing’s for sure; “if you ain’t from the South Bronx and have had no idea to know what is was like to struggle and have all our music genres blended together for both kinds to enjoy as the only thing there was to smile for, then all you out-state Blacks really need to stfu about this shit already. It’s offensive and pure ignorance. Don’t talk that talk if you ain’t walk the South Bronx walk.
+James Wood Black and Puerto Ricans Gangs of the South Bronx created Hip Hop... These street gangs had mostly NYRican members and leaders. So where is the influence from? Come again with that bullshit??
James Wood So you openly worshipped the Europeans and the Moors conquered Spain before Slavery. Ok, it’s got nothing to do with what i read from his passage. It was a fun read. Your point is?
