The GODFATHER of Hip-hop

Ok, so does everyone remember my post about hip-hop and DJ Qbert, etc, etc? Well, if you do, or you're willing to go back and look at that old post, you may remember me mentioning DJ Kool Herc. He INVENTED hip-hop. That's right, back in the early to mid 70's he was the guy that was like, "Hey, check this out. I got two turntables." Then he was like, "This is a breakbeat. You dance to it and rap over it."
DJ Kool Herc will be performing in Honolulu on Sept. 7 at 43 Hotel St. Tickets are only like $10 - $15. If you listen to hip-hop... or if you understand the cultural significance and you want to witness this totally friggin' sweet opportunity, then you should be there. Cause I'll be there. And it will be totally friggin' sweet.

-Jay
