It was 50 years ago in an apartment building in the Bronx that hip hop was born.
That is where Clive Campbell, better known as DJ Kool Herc, mixed two copies of the same album into one seamless breakbeat.
What followed in the next five decades, few would have been able to predict. Hip Hop went from a makeshift musical movement to a cultural phenomenon.
In this Eyewitness News special '50 Years of Hip Hop: The Bronx and Beyond,' we look at how hip hop is woven in every aspect of our lives, from television and fashion to advertising and politics, and how every step of the way, New York has been at the center of it all.
Watch the half-hour special airing on Eyewitness News at 5:30 p.m. on Friday, August 11, followed by a one-hour extended look on Channel 7 at 1 p.m. on Sunday, August 13. Both editions will be made available to stream on-demand at ABC7NY.com or our ABC7NY app on Roku, FireTV, Apple TV, and Android TV.

Thank you hip hop for helping me cope with many of the problems I've faced in life. I've met and developed relationships with a lot of great people because of hip hop. I've even seen some of my favorite artists of all-time perform live on stage.

Always leaving out Disco King Mario….. giving all the credit to kool Herc. A Jamaican man who came and “Got Down” and put the breaks together.

It's about HIP HOP not dicso these youth didn't like disco the man put breaks together and started a new movement and people dig it, but haters and badmind people can't seem to fathom that. The man never used to say nothing all these years but every thing is on record. These DJs bambaata which they leftout all watch Herc played back then and innovate off his technique. They all point finger to this man Herc and his crew and people still in denial! Is dosent matter because the Demons capitalized off this culture more than the founding fathers because of no unity!

Yes flowers was before Herc and the whole Bronx started Hiphop narrative is a lie. Manhattan started bboying and graffiti on subways before the Bronx knew what it even was. Queens never even knew what Shelltoes pumas prokeds sheepskins blazers or BVD and members only jackets even was until the dressed run up in a costume of the other Boros styles. They were wearing slacks out in queens when BK and Manhattan were on the BVD and Lee jeans tip in the 70s and 80s.

@@undisputedtruth6176 you sound manic. Hiphop isn't music. Not even Stolen sampled music . Hiphop is a culture of a place and a time . The place was NYC and the time was the 1970 until 1991. That's it.

I dont know why people didnt want give this man Herc his credit, is it because he's from Jamaica. It took 50 yrs for this man to get some serious form of recognition. 🇯🇲 Little but we talawha!
