Today it fills stadiums and reaches every corner of the planet in almost every language, but the seed of 'hip hop' was a neighborhood party at 1520 Sedgwick Avenue in the Bronx, New York. It was August 11, 1973 and the Back to School Jam promised to be a simple night of dancing and fun before the return to school. However, it ended up being the genesis of what is now one of the most popular musical genres in the world.
DJ Kool Herc had noticed that when he played disco and funk at parties, people danced more at the moments when the percussion intensified: the breaks. So, on that hot night, he decided to do something that for many was a heresy: throw out the rest of the song and just keep the breaks.
