    Don't forget the Amen Break from one of the most sampled tracks in the history of music, "Amen Brother"

      He told a story once about coming to have a listen to what you were doing with the cueing system. Do you remember where that was?
      It could have been anywhere. Sometimes he says he was influenced by me. But they’re trying to say that I played a different type of music, that I didn’t play his type of music, I played disco music. This is where the controversy comes in. Disco music is hip-hop music! Hip-hop music is nothing but R&B.

      THAT'S LITERALLY WHAT HIP HOP PRODUCERS DO NOW !! listen to the "Bound 2" or "Take Over" beat by Kanye.. It's called sampling (which he created) and break-beats are 1st gen hip-hop beats.
      This musical innovation along with his parties caused a domino effect.. the moment he made break-beats, "break-dancing" came synonymously.. and the fact the beats had no vocals provided a demand for Emcees to rap over them. He also had graffiti artist come to his parties so he LITERALLY orchestrated the symphony of hip-hop culture.. He might have not grew the lemons or the sugar can from which the sugar came from but he sure as hell made lemonade with it.. Which is what hip hop is - it's lemonade (a combination of different ingredients, not separated elements like FBA's and Tariq try to make it seem).

      Being a Native New Yorker (not the Bronx) hip hop is not only a music genre, but it's a cultural expression that includes dance styles, dress styles, even the language. According to Michaelwaynetv on UA-cam, the music was already here and DJ's were playing the records that Herc spun. Of course he gets credit for bringing out obscure records that other DJ's couldn't find. Kool Herc's greatest contribution was picking exotic break sessions of records that people didnt hear on mainstream radio or in the clubs. DJ KOOL Herc was definitely an innovator of the genre. The point is that THERE WERE OTHER DJ'S who were main contributors to this music style also(ex: DJ Kool D, Disco King Mario, DJ Breakout). Herc did not invent hip hop. Like the other Bronx DJ's, he catered to the B-boys and the B-girls. They were the early precursors to the modern break dancers.

    hip hop has many factors. how is one "Chosen factor" considered the start? A lot of the props Herc gets , he's never even acknowledged. Not saying he didnt contribute, but it seems like a lot of the influence , of hip hop music, is intentionally left out at times.

    I will say this you need to tred very carfully saying things like Kool Herc invented Hip Hop. If you take a really deep dive into the subject you would know this is not the case. Unfortunatly HipHop like ALL MODERN MUSIC GENRES are a product of the military industrial complex. Studied music history all my life and its a hard pill to swallow but its the truth.

    I love and respect The Winstons - Amen Brother as much as anyone else but its just one side to the story. Don't forget it wasnt sampled till quite a bit after some of the grooves pointed out in this short but very well made Video on the subject. James Browns Funky Drummer and Incredible Bongo Bands Apache are some of the roots of juggling and sampling breakbeats, if this never because a thing guess what??? nobody would have sampled Amen Brother.
