3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 1: been celebrating all year. So I guess what nineteen seventy three,

4
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: This is twenty twenty three, so yeah, you know, just hip.

5

Speaker 2: Hop been around since seventy three, yeah, seventy three.

6
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 1: Yeah. So it's just like what Biggie said, you never

7
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:26,800
Speaker 1: thought hip hop would take it this far coast right, west, coast,

8
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 1: dirty south, Midwest, all around the world.

9
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna tell you my top hip hop pioneers.

10
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 1: So I guess we'll start off, you know, like we said, Tommy,

11
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 1: my first hip hop song, Sugarhill Gang.

12
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 2: That's the first one I heard. Rappers delight right, Rappers

13
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 2: delight right. That was party song that said hip hop exactly. Yeah,

14
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 2: jump rhythm, look at you, Okay, I got it. Yeah.

15
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 2: But then I bought that out exactly from sound waves

16
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 2: about it from sound waves raves in Houston, Texas.

17
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 1: So from there, though, when you heard that song, then

18
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 1: it got real serious. The message broken glass everywhere, you know,

19
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: it was. To me, that was a moment, Mellie mel

20
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: that was a moment that hip hop I guess it

21
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: was a telling real life social issues. It was telling

22
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: a story for the have nots and breaking down you know,

23
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: what was really going on. So you had this party

24
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 1: rappers of light. Then it got serious. So that's to

25
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 1: me how it all started, this hip hop thing. And

26
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 1: then we're gonna go into Run Run d C. That's

27
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: for me number two. You know, you had your B

28
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: boys stance ready, but they were a movement, and I

29
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: think for me Run DMC the importance of what they

30
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: were doing. It wasn't just about them rapping. It wasn't

31
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 1: just about the MC. They showed how important the DJ was,

32
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. That's when we got exposed.

33
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 2: To do you know, they're like one of the first

34
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 2: groups to cross over into doing songs with rock star

35
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,519
Speaker 2: right Eryl Smith. They were doing a man.

36
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: They were a movement, and then we got to see

37
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 1: their videos, you know, on TV and Adidas and what

38
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: they were wearing. So Run DMC, and then we can

39
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,399
Speaker 1: go back to Tupac. Women love Tupac, and Tupac did

40
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 1: what he wanted to do. The poetry, his message thug

41
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: life tatted on his chest, so I mean he wrapped

42
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: keep your head up was dedicated to you. Yeah, let

43
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: me get this out. My female and Pepper's here get you.

44
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 2: Yes, and what a man? What a man?

45
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:57,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, the female MC Salt and Pepper. Every party back

46
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 1: in the eighties you had have on Salt and Peppa.

47
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: They were like the first to me, the first all

48
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: female hip hop group that hit it big, you know,

49
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: in a male dominating genre type music. And then finally,

50
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna close it out with jay Z Biggie

51
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: and the rapper's favorite rapper, the r rock Kim because

52
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 1: I think.

53
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 2: Did you not mention ice Cube on this whole thing?

54
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 2: We got to talk about all of this. Yeah, so

55
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 2: we can do part two. We can talk. Don't be

56
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 2: doing what I mentioned in ice Cube, L L Doctor Dre.

57
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 2: We got snoop. We come on now, snoop for me.

Speaker 2: but on your list? That don't make no sense to me?

61
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Well I cut it off. I cut it off.

62
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: So I put J Biggie Rack Kim because I think

63
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 1: that the rappers look up to rack Camp. He transitioned

64
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: how they rhyme. If you ask any rapper, I bet

65
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: you he's like number one, Big Daddy Caye. We could

66
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,120
