    Shit I’m happy hip hop was started period. I’m on ebay right now looking for a Delorean to go back to ANY borough in NY during the 70’s..Not sure if I’m totally on board with cats, they sound convincing…but they need more people…A lot of the argument had to do with quality of the equipment, which has nothing to do with hip-hop so you can throw that out..MUCH RESPECT TO ALL THE FOUNDING FATHERS AND MOTHERS OF HIP HOP!! we wouldn’t have had the best album of 08 seeing sounds without em…yo this has nothing to do with this post but that Will I am joint “its a new day” is on some Bruce Springstein “born in the usa”… email ya congressmen we need that dude at the inauguration!! I’m renting out my spot if anyone is tryn to come to D.C. Holla

    The person who created this is just brillant! This just reveals the truth about where hip hop started and who started it. I was always told Grand Master Flex started hip-hop. I can’t wait to see the whole documentary.
    This looks like something that the extradinary Vashtie created. I can’t wait to see more vidoes or movies done by her cause she has excellent ideas. Any haters that are reading this don’t waste time writing negative degrading comments. Use that energy doing something positive for your community. Go to a homeless shelter to help feed the needy, go to a hosptial to visit the sick, help a child whose parent died in the awful war uplift their spirits during the holidays,go to an airport to welcome home the troops and tell them how much you appreciate them for defending our country that is still at war.

    This is good information and all, but I feel them focusing on saying that this is what made Hip-Hop is taking credit from where credit is due.

    This is what influenced Hip-Hop, the Bronx still made it.

    Every creation has it’s influences, and these are some of them.

    Obviously, I need to see the doc, but from what I can tell, it looks like this will be a never-ending who-inspired-who debate. That could go back forever. I like how the ’system’ is used as a measure in this doc. Those Cerwin Vegas were destroyed! I cannot think Cerwin Vega with thinking fuckin Vanilla Ice. Is he the reason they seemed to have disappeared? The curse!

    All I see are people going back and forth???
    I’m still confused on where hip-hop originated :|

  14. TM December 24th, 2008 3:37 pm

    Or maybe I just didn’t understand the trailer.
    I’ll just have to watch the documentary I guess :)

    Brooklyn Baby We Did it like B.I.G said it
    you already know NYC is home for hip hop well maybe Bronx did took hip hop to a next level but Brooklyn hip hop is way better and we have more artists then BX.
    But one thing i would say there is nothing close to NY hip hop!
    but they are alot of other talented dudes from other states and even countries is just that NY is so hip hop :]
    BK all day 718.
