About
Born in the early-1970s Bronx when DJ Kool Herc looped the drum breaks off funk records at block parties, joined by Afrika Bambaataa and Grandmaster Flash with MCs rhyming over the top. It became a recorded genre with "Rapper's Delight" (1979) and grew into the dominant popular music of the last three decades.
