THE DJ is the most important and vital element of Hip Hop. DJ Grandmaster Flash is one of the pioneering dj's to this culture and as we look at the many dj's from hip hop and around the world we hope you will enjoy thsi art form and what it takes to be a DJ. Great Documentaries
In this culture of Hip Hop you have the B-Boys/Girls Popping, Rocking & Locking. The Rocksteady Crew & others such as Shabba Doo,Mr Wiggles & others have made this dance craze a Phenomenal hit across the world. We complied many videos of this culture for you to enjoy
A big part of the Hip Hop culture the old school hip hop party flyers which many were done by Aerosol/Graffitti Artists Phase 2 or Buddy Esquire. But the early rap promoters like Brothers Disco Ray Chandler, Kool DJAJ, Arthur Armstrong, Mike and Dave, Vansilk, Mandiplite among others deserve as much credit to this culture also.
AEROSOL ART OR GRAFFITI? Some use both or one but from STAY HIGH 149, PHASE 2, ALL JIVE 161, TAKI 183, DEZ, SUPER KOOL 223, FAB 5 FREDDY to ZEPHYR,LEE, BLADE and SEEN who some call the Godfather. Well we have compiled alot of documentary and photos of these great artists. Enjoy
