Today we recognize the very beginnings of what we know as HIP HOP culture. Thank you to @kooldjherc and ALL of the pioneers and innovators from Zulu, to Rocksteady and beyond. This culture is my way of life and I am grateful to be a part of it. Special shout out to all the DJ's, b-boys/girls, graf writers and emcees! #hiphop #4elementsofhiphop #hiphopculture #happybirthdayhiphop #grandmasterflash #grandwizzardtheodore #afrikabambaataa #koolherc #spy #taki183 #cornbread #cokelarock #keithcowboy #coldcrushbrothers #fantasticfive #Lbrothers #rocksteadycrew #wildstyle #stylewars #rubblekings #thefreshestkids #emceeing #bboying #graf #deejaying #turntablism #breaks #breakbeats #hiphopisaculture #hiphopisawayoflife #dancetothedrummersbeat #justbegun #apache #themexican #zulunation
