@@cryptoisthewaytogo Im 44, Kurtis was the first emcee I ever heard. I know he isnt the first emcee ever, but my dad had The Breaks record and I begged him to play it all the time LOL.
I was so in love with this man when I was a little girl. I begged my older cousins to take me to go see Krush Groove with them, so I could see him. To this day i can't tell you what that movie was about, I can only tell you about the scenes he was in😂😂😂😂.
I believe this was Summer of 1985. I remember it getting airplay around the same time as Prince & The Revolution 's " America " from " Around the World in a Day" album.
Curti Kurtis também! Vc acredita que só hoje ouvi esse som na rádio? E olhe que top trópico topico nada utópico. E ainda assim parece surreal de tudo o que está acontecendo agora com o Oriente Médio e a Rússia l..bem pensando bem algo bem previsto já 🫥
Basketball,I'm chillin, 8 million stories which I can't get enough of,I can't stand it,Christmas rappin and krush groove and the list goes on and on and on and on

"We're all gonna die if there's a WW3" those words I felt that. US, NATO, China, Russia & North Korea need to get their sh!t together & 🛑 this BS. We just got through a Pandemic & need a break from it ALL.
GOD FATHER OF HIP HOP!use to listen to this in 1980s,always liked fat boys,ll,public enemy,boogie boys,seem to me that political rap was the greatest.it will always be to me..still have my lasonic trc-920
Does anyone know if this song was meant to be ironic? Because it sure does sound extremely ironic extremely when you compare it to his other songs. The cover of the album also seems to depict a rather negative image of America.
Shinichi Williams If you are talking about the part where he says "Don't you love America?", yes it's ironic. But, the rest of the song is just how America was at that time.
+Shinichi Williams The message seems to be "America is a great country, but it has done bad things. Also I hope World War III doesn't happen." Rick James and Prince made similar songs around the same time ("Funk in America/Silly Little Men" and "America"), which isn't surprising since the anti-nuclear movement was at its height in the early-mid 80s.
I like this song and this video. Long time I have been trying to write lyrics of this song. There are parts that do not completely understand. Like sample before M. L. King speaks. Any help? Thank you!
One of the most underrated hip hop songs
Happy early 40th anniversary to America album by Kurtis Blow!
Just saw Kurtis Blow in Atlanta this guy dont look a day over 35 man....he had the moves....go see these legends.
2024 here now.. wonder what he’s up too.. he’s a legend and should be mentioned a lot more when they talk about rap history

Rap legend Kurtis Blow with a true rap classic.
Kurtis is the man. Nuff said.
Profound relevant great beats forgot about this one more relevant today than it was back in the 80s
the father of hip hop!
Brings back memories of my high school.
I was so in love with this man when I was a little girl. I begged my older cousins to take me to go see Krush Groove with them, so I could see him. To this day i can't tell you what that movie was about, I can only tell you about the scenes he was in😂😂😂😂.
This video is hilarious, I watch it every couple months to stay youthful.
Graduated from high school in 1985. I'm still catching up with all the stuff I missed back then, including this vid. Weirdly beautiful.
I love Kurt's Blow. I didn't know this song, but love it. It was recorded about 39 years ago, and still topical.
Kurts blow did you sniff it
Top topical!
Probably the track inspiring Paul Hardcastle with 19...
Real Rap Music even in 2023.
Old School. Kurtis Legend.
He once wished me a Happy Birthday 😊
Isso sim que é música, saudades dessa época...
The legend speaks!
Os efeitos que fizeram nesse vídeo pelo ano que foi lançado, está muito à frente do seu tempo. Kurtis Blow... Lenda viva do verdadeiro rap.
The man could see the future. He is our nostrodamus of the 21st century.
Kanye you mean;)
Whoooooa legend.
This song is SOOO underrated! Especially nowadays! Maybe they dont want everyone to see this...🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
