Many of the folks in these comments aren't aware of the 6 elements of Hip-Hop......the Ghetto Brothers, break dancing, fashion, etc.......... All many folks only embrace is the Music aka RAP music because that's what they were taught or grew up only knowing. That's why Drink Champs is so important. I'm pretty sure the brother mentioning that he only knew LEGS from a videogame is fairly young.....the only elements we see embraced in hip hop is the music.....we used to get the Street Fashion too......we don't even get that as much anymore.

    "You did an anti-drug commercial...high..." with Kurtis Blow. So dope 😂😂😂 Love the question NORE asked about why the hip hop scene is so huge overseas compared to the US. I feel also the marketing of "rap" in the US and prioritizing it and commercializing it affected it too. It's so dope to go to Denmark and Italy, etc and see how they live the real culture there. And it is sad that so many in the newer generation don't know or understand hip hop history. Yet, old school rock stars are worshipped and known globally, it seems.

    Sad but it seems like these people want to disparage what occurred before 1975 because they weren't a part of it. As someone who's family migrated from Santurce to 170 st and Davidson Avenue in the Bronx, this is where the cultural disconnect may come in because they don't understand the environment coming out of the civil rights movement of the 60s and what we were listening to in the hood. James Brown was king. Only thing about 77 that was noteworthy was the blackout and yes things changed because dudes stole equipment. I remember Legs from the Roxy. Get people on the show that were there to clear up the speculation from the youngsters like Caz, Legs, KRS1, Fat Joe and others that were either too young or not part of it.

    ​@@jayjones251 Hip-Hop is more than just music. Like Bambaataa has already defined, and any real fan of Hip-Hop already knows, there are 5-6 elements of Hip-Hop. 1) DJing 2) MCing 3) Graffiti 4) B-Boying 5) Beatboxing 6) Culture. If Hip-Hop music started around '75, and Crazy Legs started B-Boying in '77, then Crazy Legs has been Breaking for 46 out of the 48 years that Hip-Hop music has been around. And even before 1980, it was fully recognized that he was one of the best at that time while he was the creator of the windmill and backspin in 1979 when Hip-Hop was only 4 years old. So why isn't Crazy Legs one of the pioneers? Hip-Hop wasn't even fully formed into its own culture until Bambaataa started inviting all of the different elements to parties one or two years later.

    The best interview yet followed by DMX. So much stuff in this related to me as a white boy living in the hood. Especially, the feeling of being unwanted & victimized. There is a lesson of respect that is earned that is not spoken about. In my case, i was a punk rocker that did shows in his house with a crack house across the street because who the fuck is gonna call the police. It’s crazy that back then when i was younger, i had the balls to identify & approach the o.g.’s if any of my crew had problems with the hood crew. I am not trying to go out on a tangent but it all boils down to a level of respect regardless of how superficial it might be because it reflects on self preservation. The part where Crazy Legs talks about dancing with inner pain, that’s the shit that got us by at DIY underground hip hop shows

People need to also stop trying to claim that somebody being "Black" automatically makes them the same as a Black Americans as if they can take credit for creations that came from the Black American ethnicity simply because they're apart of the so called Black race or mixed with another Black ethnicity that's not Black American.
