The Father of Hip Hop: Kool DJ Herc

The Legendary Kool D.J. Herc is highly credited as the founder of Rap music that set off the evolution of the Hip Hop culture. Herc is internationally known for his contributions in the culture of Hip Hop and he promotes a positive image towards it. Herc was asked to portray himself in the movie Beat Street produced by Harry Bellafonte, David Picker and directed by Stan Lathan. The people’s Hall of Fame Award and a certificate from Governor Mario Cuomo were given to Herc for establishing the roots of Hip Hop culture in New York. His photograph and Bio hangs permanently in The Museum of the City of New York (104th & 5th Avenue) on the people’s Wall of Fame. Kool D.J. Herc was inducted into the prestigious Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Museum in Cleveland September 1995. Herc received the Hip Hop Pioneer award given out at the first Source Hip Hop Music Awards 1999 show. No matter what race, color, or age Herc has a message to say to today’s generation on drugs, rehabilitation towards one’s self and among positive awareness. He stipulates an informative historical evolution on the Hip Hop culture of the past, present and future. When you think Hip Hop, you think Kool DJ Herc!
