Here we go with this same old argument that is told so some can keep their fame. I used to believe it as well UNTIL I actually did the research myself, and saw how some took the truth of what you said, and ran with it so they can get fame without giving props where it was due
There was no such thing as disco dj's who looked down on hip hop because it had no name back then. What you mean to say is they didn't want the LITTLE street teenagers dancing on the floor at their parties, and coming in wearing street clothes. THAT IS ALL IT WAS!
The dj's both played the same shyt in the beginning. Again, what herc did was focus on breaks, and he pushed the culture forward, BUT he didn't create it, that is the part yall are not getting. Using two turntables, having an mc, playing songs that had the funk, and not just radio songs, all began before herc. In fact Herc said he went to the parties, and watched the dj's do their thing so he wanted to do it. That means he didn't invent anything, he just gave his part. Herc didn't invent hip hop dress code, the street kids did, and you know why they got fly? To get in the nightclubs that the "disco dj's" played at, and to look like the older guys who went to those clubs, and who made money!
Hip hop was not invented by two people on a certain date. You got to be the biggest fool to believe that. Herc himself said he didn't start playing breaks until about year later AFTER 1973. These guys are not that honest once you do actual research, and catch them in their lies! Thank you @IllmaticDelta for making me catch that lie, because I always thought the first party claim was the day he played breaks. You showed me how that was a lie as well using the words of the people who were there! You mad me see what I experienced myself, hip hop is just a tool for foul nikkas to eat. The people who truly love it are not really seen. It reminds me of the fight hip hop had since the beginning. A fight between the frauds, and the authentic. I can say the frauds won, but us real lovers are still here helping spread the truth on its history.
