🎧 YT served up a pirated v. of "Now That We've Found Love" by . I thought, has an official channel, lemme see. It's there. Read the Wiki to find out what year (1991) AND learned it was a Gamble/Huff composition for the ? Wow. How'd I not know that? Not the mood I want right now, but later.

And now...

This tribute to iconic #HipHop #samples is so great! Not only replaying all the classic jams, but also how they assembled the #waveforms so you can see what's happening!

Turns out I’m only a couple of years older than Hip Hop. It’s literally the novel musical form of my generation then. Sometime in the very early ‘90s, a mate at college spent his summer in NY. He came back with this C90 tape of Hip Hop mixes for me. Schooly D, Tribe Called Quest, LL Cool J. And of course Eric B and Rakim: Don’t Sweat The Technique #HipHop50 #FiftyYearsOfHipHop #JukeBoxFridayNight #ErikBAndRakim

MarkMaguire,

Bear with me this is a nostalgic skip though my 20s. Tribe Called Quest - massive debut album People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm. The singles were huge. But lots else going on on that LP. https://songwhip.com/a-tribe-called-quest/rhythm-devoted-to-the-art-of-moving-butts

MarkMaguire,

A gang of Irish art students went to Berlin for the summer of 1992. 2 mates and I out in the airport seeking seasonal jobs, in an empty arrivals hall, saw Public Enemy: Chuck D with a massive bag trolley. Flavor Flav looking to exchange US Dollars. We didn’t want to intrude on their busy arrival but when we saw them later on stage and it was visceral. #JukeBoxFridayNight

Tricky with Martina Topley-Bird and their unique take on a PE classic, Black Steel “Got a letter from the Government the other day …”

MarkMaguire,

The Beasties’ Sure Shot is one of my all time favourite tracks. Their run of albums - Paul's Boutique, Check Your Head, and Ill Communication - is kind of my college years soundtracked, from leaving school through to a summer in the US on student work visa. Good times with the Beasties.

MarkMaguire,

One of the college mates I was living with in Berlin, had Ice-T on the stereo all the time. As a Metaller he also had the new Bodycount album. There was Hip Hop and Head Banging (I had a lot of hair then). He’s died since and Ice-T always reminds me of that place then.

MarkMaguire,

My favourite Arrested Development track is Revolution from the Malcolm X soundtrack. Speech’s social media presence is one of the few things I miss from the Other Site. I found this more recent live version on YouTube and it is a track meant to be engaged with live.

MarkMaguire,

There was an intense huddle at a table in the college canteen one morning in First Year. When I sat down it turned out it was De La Soul’s Three Feet High and Rising on vinyl was being passed around reverently, the outer and inner sleeve being pored over. That LP cover though: punk and hippie and very Hip Hop. Something very new had arrived. 🌼

MarkMaguire,

The Roots with the amazing Erykah Badu. I was living in Germany at the time the video was on heavy rotation on MTV Europe. #FiftyYearsOfHipHop

MarkMaguire,

Last one: The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. That thing. That thing. That thing.

MarkMaguire,

I went looking for a link to Missy Elliott’s All N My Grill on my subscription streamer. Really digging listening to it again but then an American male rapper starts in English! Big Boi? Where’s MC Solaar en français? Turns out I had a European version of the CD back in the day. 😆 That’s a global music empire tailored to local circumstance. Well played. Here’s the European version.

Happy 50th birthday, hip-hop!

I went digging through my old photos and videos, and here's some of my (often blurry) favorite moments in honor of the day.

  1. Me with Slick Rick at Amoeba Hollywood, April 2019.

  2. Me at the NAS concert at the NorVa, Norfolk, VA, November 2012. Credit: djlilysdad.

  1. Of course, the poster that I commissioned to depict the forces that brought Kara and I together. Diddy, Nas, and Bad Boy Records are part of that story. Where would we be without hip-hop?! I wouldn't want to find out.
