Afrika Bambaataa - The beginning of the Zulu Nation

Afrika Bambaataa-Planet Rock

Unity by James Brown & Afrika Bambaataa

DETAILS:
Afrika Bambaataa, whose name literally translates to “affectionate leader” is one of the three main originators of break-beat deejaying, and is respectfully known as the “Godfather” of Hip Hop culture as well as the Father of the Electro Funk Sound. He was the first to coin the term “Hip Hop”, encompassing the elements of music, graffiti, dance and knowledge, thereby identifying Hip Hop as a unique culture unto itself. After his 1982 hit sensation, “Planet Rock” , Bambaataa organized the first international Hip Hop tour of B-Boys, Graffiti Artists, DJs and Emcees, providing the world with a glimpse of the cultural revolution called Hip Hop. He has consistently made records nationally and internationally, and has helped to define the cutting edge of music throughout from rap, through electro, to house and electronic breaks.

Cole Lumpkin Moves With the Music, Letting Life Shape Every Note

Cole Lumpkin doesn’t create from a distance. He creates from inside the moment. As a New York City native, his artistry reflects motion, curiosity, and constant self-interrogation. Music for Lumpkin isn’t something you step into once everything is figured out. It’s something you carry with you, refine on the move, and allow to grow alongside real life. A self-taught…See More
