I’m working on a triptych of silkscreen prints I started some 6 years ago! It depicts the Hip-Hop Holy Trinity of Kool Herc, Bambaataa, & Flash. It reflects my other main passion, music. #printmaking #hiphop #hiphopmusic #djkoolherc #afrikabambaataa #grandmasterflash #djculture #hiphopholytrinity

A BMP infographic showing the connections of Africa, Jamaica, Chinese Jamaicans, the Bronx, and DJ Kool Herc. Its texts says: DJ Kool Herc is “The Father of Hip-Hop” because he innovated the toasting skills he learned at sound system shows in Kingston, which Chinese Jamaicans like Tom Wong developed. This mix of African and Chinese diaspora creativity, blended in Jamaica and innovated in the Bronx, exemplifies the “musical dialog” with its roots in Africa that has transformed the world.

#DJKoolHerc is The Father of #HipHop. He innovated the skills he learned in Kingston, sneaking into sound system parties. Now that you know the Asian connection in hip-hop predates Wu-Tang, we'll conclude borrowing from one of their song titles, "Lesson Learn'd." #blackmusicmonth 13/14

A BMP infographic featuring a photo of DJ Kool Herc from his youth, standing behind two tables and a microphone. The texts says: DJ Kool Herc soon became a local legend influencing others who attended his parties—kids like Joseph Saddler. Joseph attended Herc’s shows and began DJing using the name “Grandmaster Flash.” On 8.11.1973, in the Bronx, Clive Campbell just wanted to help his little sis raise some cash for new school clothes using the sound system skills he learned in Jamaica; instead he launched a music revolution.

Herc soon became a local legend and influenced other young people. Clive Campbell just wanted to help his little sister raise some cash for new school clothes; he had inadvertently launched a music revolution. #raphistory #hiphop #rap #DJKoolHerc #hiphophistory #raproots #blackmusicmonth 12/14

A BMP infographic featuring an illustration of breakdancers done in a style reminiscent of the artist Keith Haring. Its text says: DJ Kool Herc hosted more parties and applied his Jamaican-learned toasting skills to encourage the dancers who showed up for the breakbeats with chanting rhymes. Herc named these dancers “b-boys” and “b-girls,” and their dancing was called “breakdancing.” Toasting became more creative as others elaborated with combinations of pre-written and spontaneous “raps.”

Herc's party was a success, and he began hosting other events. Herc applied his Jamaican-learned toasting skills to encourage the dancers, whom he named "b-boys" and "b-girls," & their dance style was called "breakdancing." #Breakdancing #dance #hiphop #Bboys #DJKoolHerc #rap #blackmusicmonth 11/14

A BMP infographic showing the original handwritten invite to DJ Kool Herc's 1973 party. Its text says: To DJ his sister’s party, Clive promoted himself as “DJ Kool Herc,” adopting the “Kool Herc” from his graffiti artist tag. DJ Kool Herc’s set-up included boxes full of records, two turntables, and a microphone. The two turntables allowed him to extend the instrumental breaks by repeatedly playing the same section and switching between them. This extension of the “breakbeats” drove the dancers wild.
