<p>Good morning to all!</p>
<p>What can you say about the assertion of the many pioneers in the Bronx that the record and Hollywood were different things?</p>
<p>"Hip Hop lives because of this. (Mouth)</p>
<p>Because of the ability to communicate with spoken word and rhythm.</p>
<p>The rapper is the one who took this to the max.</p>
<p>And that’s what Hollywood did". Kurtis Blow</p>
<p>"I don’t know if people had given him the proper respect. Wasn’t he Hip Hop?</p>
<p>He is also Hip Hop. Don’t believe my word, but the audience’s.</p>
<p>When we talked about rap, Hollywood was the best. He was the best pure rapper. He was the one who opened the door.</p>
<p>That’s why they made a damn rap record.</p>
<p>What’s up? Thanks to Hollywood, they had to make rap records". Russel Simmons</p>
<p>For some, Dj Hollywood from Harlem was Hip Hop’s first rhythmic rapper.</p>
<p>But for others, like disco DJ, Hollywood is not part of hip hop.</p>
<p>The debate about Hollywood is what the essence of Hip Hop is. And for the people of the Bronx, its essence was Breaks.</p>
<p>I’m gonna find out how Grandmaster Flash helped the first hip hop super group.</p>
<p>Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five. </p>

<p>"I decided to make my debut in the park.</p>
<p>I thought: [I’m gonna play the most exciting Pop part].</p>
<p>One stuck to the other. One, two, to the beat. To get them into a frenzy.</p>
<p>Instead of going into a frenzy, they were pushing the ropes trying to figure out what was going on.</p>
<p>I didn’t want fascination, I wanted them to dance.</p>
<p>I cried for days because I thought: [After all this time, why doesn’t it work? ].</p>
<p>I decided to start talking, but I couldn’t speak very well and play.</p>
<p>So I put the microphone on the other side of the table and anyone who could vocalize could be on my team". Grandmaster Flash</p>
<p>"What happened with Flash is he came to our neighborhood, at one of the improvisations he used to do in the park.</p>
<p>He used to put the microphone on and people would say hello, or tell someone that the mother was looking for him. Or something weird.</p>
<p>And you know, Flash didn’t have a good voice to talk to.</p>
<p>It’s not fast or witty.</p>
<p>He mastered technical skills. And with my brother Kid Creole we used to practice at home.</p>
<p>So we were very prepared, even before we did something.</p>
<p>And then he left the microphone and I took it. I started saying my rhymes or whatever. And from then on, we went in.</p>
<p>At first, they were Grandmaster Flash with the other three Mc's.</p>
<p>That was Cowboy and my brother Creole and me. The fourth member was a good friend of ours too who was a B-boy. And that was Scorpio. And then we had the fifth member of another group, it was Rahiem. Those were the Furious Five". Melle Mel</p>
