Grandmaster Flash Master Class: Quick Mix Theory, Slipmats, Sampling + More 

This maybe one of the best interviews they ever done. This was incredible.

I think Breakfast club needs this type segment on Fridays , like a “Fact Friday” with education of each part of hip hop, dj.. their education, producers, engineers, the artist on how they put bars together . Education of Hip hop

This interview is on a whole new level. congratulations Grandmaster Flash & Breakfast Club.

This interview is an illustration of our genius. As a life long hip hop fan, this was mind blowing 🫡 to the pioneers!

This was one of my fave episodes of the Breakfast Club of all time.

I'm at work hiding from my manager this interview is so fire 🔥🔥🔥 😂😂😂

Grandmaster Flash could have been an electrical engineer, because of his curiosity with how electronics work. Super interesting guy.

My mind is blown away!! Man, I wish GrandMaster Flash would've done my Career Day at school when I was a kid.

Class IS in session!!! You have to know where you came from to know where you going. Grandmaster Flash we salute you and you deserve everything in this world of HIP HOP🙂

Best breakfast club interview I've ever seen and you're talking to a life long listener here. Thoroughly impressed. Somebody get this man some patents, brand deals and a documentary ASAP!!!! God bless.

Cannot be overstated how important GMF is to the culture

Wait a min. The Breakfast Club got DJ Grandmaster Flash on the show yeah...big man tingz 💪🏿👊🏿

I am sooooooooo glad they gave him this platform to show his talent

The breakfast club is now officially Iconic after this interview.

Hip-hop wouldn’t be what it is today without Grandmaster Flash. Much Respect 💯 🐐

This is History and the Magic in the making ❣️ To be able to be here and say we witnessed Flash on real time is a blessing❣️ Flash is a treasure to all music and time. ❤❤❤

So proud of this interview! Legendary!!! Hip Hop definitely needs a union & the originators need to be compensated 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I’m going on record as claiming this THE BEST segment this show has EVER done. Salute to TBC and Salute to Flash!!!

I'm only half way through but I have to stop and say how much I appreciate this interview and that you guys were able to get Flash all plugged in to show his technique live. I love hip hop and all of the nerdy passion that underlines every aspect of it. Phenomenal and informative interview.

This is history! I’m so mind blown. This interview is amazing

This was WILD. Good lord. Flash has helped me understand so much more about hip hop. Four to sixteen is wild valuable.

Not to be caught in the moment. This is one of the greatest interviews I’ve ever seen. So much outstanding knowledge in this 55:22 minute interview. Grandmaster Flash looks at DJing as a science. This is amazing. He’s an engineer as well. Grandmaster Flash built these machines. He’s a true musician. More than a “DJ.” The art of sampling. Grandmaster Flash gave us that. Good job The Breakfast Club.

I'm 61 from Los Angeles and I approve and salute flash💙💙 Sugar hill gang was LA first introduction to east coast hip hop then grand master Africa bam sequence we was loving it. Then came LA gangster rap. Lights out💙💙💙😂

Of all the hip hop artists and interviews you all have ever had this is possibly the most important one.

True Genius and Legend!! He needs to be honored more.

60 yrs old been down since DAY 1. Grew up in the N.E Bronx where Breakout was the 1st known DJ to us because he used to be on my block ( 216th street). The days when the DJ was the show, not the MC. We went to the jams not only to hear the beats, but to WATCH the DJ get busy......guys used to actually stand by the DJ booth and watch the DJ....MCs main job was to hype up the crowd and the DJ.....before there was actual " bars".....thats how far i go back

This interview/history lesson just validated this show. Much respect Grand Master Flash 👊🏾✊🏾

BEST interview EVER!!! THANK YOU FOR HOSTING AND FLASH FOR COMING!!!

I’m so glad that I watched this! He actually taught class today. ‼️👍🏾💯

You guys should do more educational stuff like this. It's cool to see where the roots of something come from.

Now this is how you honor the true pioneers of hip hop! Grandmaster Flash gave us a master in class that showed his ingenuity, artistry, and pure genius of breaking down beats mathematically. Please have more of the true hip hop pioneers on to tell their stories. They deserve their flowers as we commemorate 50 years.

Appreciate this. Best of health & success to DJ GM Flash…

🔥🔥The legendary DJ Grandmaster Flash -The Originator & pioneering hip hop/black culture icon - Wow❣♥ 🔥🔥Always technically on point. I taught my kids & grandkids about this man's escapades the parallels between GMF & sound selectors DJs OMG fantastic 😍🥰

CLASS is in session!!!!!! Thank you Grand Master Flash!!! ❤and Shout out to the Breakfast Club to bringing us back to the essence! The founders are GENIUSES!!! ❤ Mathematical GENIUSES at that!!!!

This was truly, exceptionally, one of the best interviews the Breakfast Club has had.

Such a beautiful moment in history this interview is. You can tell he has so much to share. We need to continue to make space for the OGs in the present less we forget. 💕

This is the best hip hop interview of hip hop history from one of the gods of our culture

Master class today. Love from Ghana!!!! 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭

So much knowledge in less than an hour 🙌 Thanks so much for sharing! GOOD TALK!

I'm in my 50s and I understand the age gap knowledge of just those 5 to 10 yrs younger , it's when you truly come into your teen years that matter...all the best to flash , we know eachother and the great memories the music brings of youth is priceless, keep teaching !I grew up in 733 ❤

This is the most important video I've ever watched as a DJ & lover of hip hop

So a master class from a grand master DJ, I love it.

Been watching breakfast club since the beginning, this may be THE best episode... Scratch that, it is 🎧

This is one of the most legendary episodes!

Envy feeling good….he back home in his roots of DJ’ing

There are not enough views here for what this man has created and helped create. Any and all artist, producers, and DJs need to listen, learn, and pay homage. This is one of the most culturally important interviews i have seen on this channel.

No matter how many time I hear him tell the backstory it never gets old! Makes me proud to be a DJ

Wow, I’m a huge hip hop history fan!! GFlash is the man, Wow!!

This is hip hop history at is finest! Dope episode

This deserves millions of views. This is engineering at its best. THIS IS BLACK EXCELLENCE. NOT THE OTHER FOOLISHNESS.

It's a beautiful thing when a true artist and inventor discovers a passion for something at the right time and place. This was an incredible lecture. Historical record preservation. God bless, Flash!

We need more of these type of interviews for the culture. Talk to the historians and the founders of HIP HOP. Thank you for this interview.

He is so right. I'm 60 years old and remember these guys setting up makeshift equipment in PS55 schoolyard after hours in the Bronx. They'd use the streetlights for electricity, somehow rigging those things for power. I always thought it was dangerous and cool at the same time but now i see Flash and the others knew exactly what they were doing. There is something special about being there before hiphop existed and watching what it has become now. I wouldnt trade it for anything.

One of my favorite interviews. The Legend Grandmaster Flash

Best BC interview EVER!!! I'm so blessed to have witnessed it!

I just fell back in love with hip hop 😍

Dope class on Hip Hop!!!! From the inside out 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Grandmaster Flash is literally THAT GUY 🔥🔥🔥🔥

That was so awesome. I have been a fan for so long. He is amazing

This is ICONIC and what I think of when it comes to celebrating 50 yrs of Hip Hop…This is the time for the forefathers & innovators to SHINE. GMF, a true pioneer was ahead of his time and is not only a DJ & Producer but a full-on ENGINEER ‼🤌🏾

N.E Bronx in the house.... Remember DJ Breakout doing jams at P.S. 78 in the 70s . He used to hang out on 216th Street and Laconia Ave. Good friends with Richie.

Legendary shit right here. I would love to see more of them come on the show ♥️

I've had my life changing, first encounter 1984 when Beat Street was released, with 14 yrs old. We snug in that movie more than 10 times, even with a big ass radio to record the music.^^ To hear Flash breaking down every detail is just amazing to me rn!

Finally you guys have one of the pioneers on here! still waiting for you to have Kool Herc on here too

This was the best interview ever from the Breakfast Club!!

Love n Respect to the legend GrandMaster Flash 🔥🔥🔥🔥

This was to me was the absolute best of the breakfast club! G.M. flash is beyond phenomenal!

This was one of the best breakfast club interviews ever.

This is absolutely fantastic how dj grandmaster flash loves to teach and share the history of my career djing/producing and hip hop culture. wow so awesome 🎉👏👏👏👏🎉

47 years I’ve been loving music, hip-hop in particular, my entire life!!! Born and raised in New York City’s Lower East Side, high school and “Hookie Parties” in the Bronx…NEVER KNEW THESE THINGS!!! And my cousin (RIP) was an original member of Rock Steady!!! If you know, you know!!! Best Breakfast Club EVER!!! Yo me…

Best and way overdue interview. Please continue to interview more legends from the 70s and 80s

The last thing that grandmaster flash just made me cry that man is a legend

damn let me say this .... I am 25 years of age : half the age of hip hop... well a couple months shy of a quarter centry , and when I tell you I don't like to comment. I don't like to comment. if anything this is one of very few and I mean FEW comments I leave on any online platform. but ive been aware of this man before I even had the chance to speak my first words. my mother will more then gladly tell you about the how I wouldn't kick her during pregnancy but, on how I would gracefully glide around her belly like a roller ring. practically moonwalking out the womb. but personally speaking this man Grand Master Flash has put a nuclear power plant in my heart, soul, and body. that I can honestly say ... he makes me feel extremely humble. so humble that I can say; going to be the one of the best sound engineers/producer/beat maker/song-writer / creatives to ever touch the earth with one of the greats like himself. All this steaming from a man (in my case who isn't my biological father) who casually introduced me to what I call today....the love my life ... music

Absolutely incredible! WHEW....Had to listen to this one three times. This is next level...MASTER CLASS! Good job Brothers.

Awww mannn WHAT A MASTER CLASS!!! LOOOOVE THIS!!! Thank you GrandMaster Flash

The Genius. The Creativity. The Mind. The Essence. We Are One Of One✊🏾Salute GM ⚡️

Grand Master Flash I salute your dedication to this craft. Rane tapped into this man for the creation of the Empath mixer, which was one of the best mixers ever made. Great interview Breakfast Club.

This music touched my soul. Craft is everything. DJ Grandmaster flash 😮

Definitely need more of this. This Hip Hop shit is our history an legacy!!

"I travel 150 countries a year-I'm good" Talk about goals 🎉

I loved this history lesson in hip hop. So needed

It's easily the best interview of all-time breakfast club interviews!

A total Master Class 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Legendary Iconic

I listen to EVERY interview but this 1 touched my SOUL

Incredible interview! This is the reason hip hop and even breakfast club exist!! This is big !!

This answered so many questions I’ve had in my head for a while salute to Grandmaster Flash the people need to be educated properly

Respect to a Pioneer. I just learned some of the Science of Deejaying.

Salute to the Breakfast Club for this Master Class in Hip Hop from one of the founders. This knowledge and history must live on through generations to come.

This interview is golden. GMF is a real life genius!!! He should get with Ava and make a documentary/movie.

This "ish" is giving me chills it's so good. All we hear is those songs, but GMF breaks it all down to how he hears music, this is music theory. I love our culture like ah Mutha!

Incredible! We are some brilliant beings 🙏🏽

Big ups For masterclass lessons Grandmaster Flash. Musical Savant.

You’ll made this man feel special 💪🏿💪🏿

Literally blew my mind about the birth of hip-hop. I appreciate everything he showed us!

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💐💐💐 to a 🐐 GOAT thank you King 👑! You raised me and the next generations.

DJ ENVY was definitely in his fan bag this episode

It’s actually nice to see this side of Envy

Salute! This was a Dope interview!!! you took a chance on this one and it worked!

Salute Legend such a humble man with all that knowledge willing to give it out imagine if he wasn't so humble the history of our music will be f.. up

Flash is a genius. As an older person, what he is doing here is only what I saw growing up. True talent. Amazing.

This is absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! 🤯
