No Doubt, with all these cheat codes, trick-nolgy mixers,controllers.....What would they do if all that mess went out????

​@kinetic97 The technology is at our control, we produced them and so we can make anything we want including samplers, decks, PCs, laptops, equalisers, boosters, bass bins, amplifiers, speakers etc etc etc. Music will never die

a true dj will always be taught to play with their ears, reguardless if they have a display showing bpm etc. if you are not taught that way, you aint doing much

@@boof_jnk No Doubt Bro

Well said as 54 year old vinyl dj😎

Thats insane

+UNCLE CEE that must have been magic...peace

The first time I saw him was 1980. I was so excited I was literally shaking.

Must have been an amazing experience. I’m a ‘77 baby so I just missed out. Peace to the GOD

Fun fact i saw found grandmaster flash in 2021 haha.

It's not anymore ?

no

mischa the king maybe cuz you dont know real dj but still they are tons of good one

Natsirt b. They're not tons of good ones... This djing is different than the expected djing these days. Its alot easier now.

Yeah, I still have 3 coffins full of vinyl. Beat matching, keeping the beats per minutes in sync, and knowing the position of each record where the breaks, pauses, other stuff is a lot harder than punching two songs on a laptop and have the software do the work for ya ! :D

The old school VintageHipHopSeattle joint up in this

He definitely did not invent the crossfader, it already existed. Besides all of what you have mentioned, he also invented the cue system. Besides that I agree with you man!

@@woodywoodrin8588 check out Hot97 Grandmaster Flash explaining the theory of DJing. He said that he took a double action single pull switch to allow him to extend the drum break. Who do you say invented it? If he's lying I want to know. Maybe I heard wrong I will watch it again myself. It's on KZfaq. And thanks for being respectful. Too many people don't understand that you can have an exchange of differing opinions in a respectful way. CHEERS! I await your reply...from one hip hop head to another.

Did not invent the scratch..Grand wizard Theodore did

@@alistairdavies4715 dj kool hurc was doing this before flash, caz, or anybody else out here.

@@peteantonio1601 hi Pete I would check your hip hop history. Herc did not invent the scratch. Herc was the first to mix 2 records together but theodore was the first to invent scratch .

@@malcolmthatruufedwards537 i literally complimented Flash on his technique? Maybe you're confused.

Dj St3rling oh ok, my fault bro, I'll retract that lol ✊

Dj St3rling even though there's mistakes here and there, this brings back so many memories. Real talk, I remember when Grandmaster Flash and the furious five, Charlie Chase, Grand Master Caz and others came to Cali when I was stationed at Fort Irwin back in the 80s. I really wanted to battle Flash back then, not as a disrespect, but as a pupil who came up under him, wanting to pay homage. Back then when we battled it wasn't about disrespect, at least not ask the time. I've krewed up with some of the katz I battled. Yea, those were the days. Flash is having fun, and he's getting some rightfully deserved cash, because back then they weren't paying like they are today, so I'm glad to see the PIONEERS getting a piece of the pie. Real talk.

@@malcolmthatruufedwards537 it's all love fam.

He uses both though serato and vinyl, but when he's playing overseas he takes his laptop. Cause you don't want to pay 5000 bucks for extra luggage.

So your in jail ..lol

@@scottjohnson713 the record labels killed hip hop and destroyed the conscious message and replaced it with negativity.

QMoneyBags wot?

Chili-Bo Official TV FACTS!!! I was the same, back in 78 , grandmaster flash, red alert, stretch Armstrong & bobito, DJ Barry, DJ breakout, cash money aka krazy kill(it's uh Philly thing, not many know that name, he considered that name at a time we all used to get together in North Philly at my Bwoy Ice's crib, we'd hit tha basement, set up our tables an go in, those were tha days of Parry P, later adding tha corner Boyz) Jeff aka jazzy, kid flash, cosmic kev, and a host of others, but, the main name making waves on the larger scale was the grandest of them all, GRANDMASTER FLASH

@@malcolmthatruufedwards537 Yeah Those Pure Vinyl Days Were The Dopest! We Were So Hungry In The Old Days That We Were Rockin' Component Set Style Turntables And Had Perfected The "Volume" Knob As The Fader! 😂 By The Time I Got Technic 1200s and A "Realistic" Mixer (Old School Radio Shack 😂) I Was A Beast! Back In The Day You Used Whatever You Could Get Your Hands On! Hip Hop Was Fun And Original! Good Times! 🔥🔥🔥

yuuuh shit was. dope

Yeah that's the shit

Yo that was as dopest as could be

Amazing. Masterpiece.. I mean yes, I have.

hell, dopest ever...just watched BBC Once Upon a Time in New York and ended up here, also spended alot time with my vinyl collection after the get down=D

We could but Here's the thing, even jazzy Jeff rocks with a laptop now

@@DjR3aper agree. Things have evolved no more carrying records. And gunna be frank his technique aint aged well. Jazzy jeff on the other hand adapts

@@djavsdjavs he INVENTED those movies that we all learn and adapt to our own style DJing is 90% keeping the audience dancing & hyped, 10% super chops

Muito bom

Ola brasil

Still great my Bru-THA

he is the reason for dj jazzy jeff, dj scratch, dj cut creator to start scratching

Respect the architect. The Innovator on the crossfader.

Let me guess Serato DVS system

I used to see him at The Fever. You always knew when got on the turntable. Flash is one of a kind!

Grandmaster dont need it HAHAHA

XD XD

lol

very racist though

I hope you knew him before it

he probably didn't.

oddly enough when i was in the 7th grade there was a reading assignment in a textbook about grandmaster flash. i didnt know hiphop from rap

The Difference in my opinion is.... Rap is UnStructured Words Wrapped in A loop. mostly untalented People.. hip-hop is a underground Movement made main stream . by record labels such as Legendary Def Jam And Arista hip hop tells stories and is articulate writing told with a Rhyme and ........

Frazette Brown real DJs can afford it, have a place store it and take care of it and have a car and crew to transport it. Lol.

@@bboymac84 so just rich djs play vinyl

David Bahamon 👍🏽😁

I DJ'd in the 90's. I bought all my vinyl dirt cheap and the new stuff was reasonable to purchase. I was also in a record pool. I amassed roughly 20,000 records and have shelves covering a couple walls. A crate of records is no joke heavy and I would bring at least 4-5 every gig. Add in two 1200s in flight cases, your mixer and forget it. Some places had their own set up and I'd just bring needles. I miss those days and I'm retired from DJing.

Brian Bianco records are cool but heavy lol

@DJ GodsOwn Despite the comment you're responding to being 6 years old, that was a fuckin fabulous replie.
