I hope folks know the magnitude of this brother and monumental place he and Run DMC hold in hip hop history and how they helped to mold and shape the art, bringing it out into major recognition of the mainstream. If you claim to know hip hop you have to know the greats like Run DMC, Erik B and Rakim, KRS-1, LL Cool J, Grand Master Flash and the Furious 5, Curtis Blow, The Sugar Hill Gang, Nucleus, etc...
