Kool Herc. “Kool Herc is not a a stepping stone… He’s a horse that can’t be rode and a bull that can’t be stopped, and ain’t a disco I can’t rock!”

Kool Herc

Real Name: Clive CampbellD.O.B.: April 16, 1955 Kingston, Jamaica Before there was hip-hop, there was Herc. As far as deejaying is concerned Herc invented the wheel. The most influential founder of a cultural movement transcended into a hip-hop phenomenon. The sole heartbeat of contemporaneous youth within the jungle of West Bronx, mechanically Kool Herc was the very first to develop the definitive break-beat Deejaying, utilizing the percussion section of a funk song, isolating it and repeating it to develop a new dance beat.
