“A lot of people aren’t really fully aware of how Chicago Black music as a whole directly and indirectly impacted hip-hop, whether that’s through gospel, R&B, soul and our own hip-hop innovations” BlackVoicesWTTW
In 1973, DJ Kool Herc set two copies of James Brown’s “Sex Machine” album on the turntables at a Bronx house party and tried out his innovative technique of cutting and mixing songs at the drum breaks.
