    Newman was good and The Cars and Devo were big. Men at Work, The Fixx, Psychedelic Furs, Talking Heads, The Cure..Bananarama. Original Babies on Fire by Brian Eno . Never big on B 52s but there was a re up party house every weekend that and Violent Femmes was literally all they played.
    Yep all those bands were big and I remember every one of them

    Can’t forget this dude. When he performed it the first time he was booed and called Judas. Went on to be an anthem. This dude influenced so many and has been writing and performing for 6 decades. You go see his shows there are people 15-78 there. He touches everyone

    You played in a band? What instrument? IMO, you on stage would've been a hellatious drummer. I wonder under the costume if this is really you playing mellow, then u watched some kid walk by with their parent who had on a Biden T shirt around 30 seconds into clip ! Shame on you!

    @SlimTrae I played lead guitar from the age of 14 starting with the songs by Kiss and Black Sabbath, then around 18 or 19 years old had a jazz fusion band with songs like the mahavishnu orchestra and return to forever. Always wanted to play the drums and I can't stop listening to Ginger Baker.

    I remember in 2016 you were really big on Brian Wilson. Weren't you talking about Brian Wilson by the time we ordered the second round of Sex on the Beach?

    I feel bad cause I used to not like The Beach Boys and they wrote some excellent music. Never really appreciated it. Now I got to put up “god only knows” what a beautiful song. I’ve always loved Dylan

    He's pretty tight. Not sure I'd want to listen to a 10mn solo of anything though.


    Today's era of kids are just so friggin talented- what a shame music industry doesn't promote musicians anymore...these 2 young Asian sisters are the examples.

    MC HAMMER

    I thought it over a long time.

    SugarHillGang was the 1st major group. they were nowhere near the 1st rap act. In fact our heroes of rap declared their making up words like dang diggy dang a dang a diddy..or a hip hop hibby to the hibidy hip...U get it! it was pure garbage to EVERY TOP GROUP, DUO doing parties and clubs. Problem was their manager had $ & connections..so when they got them on radio...the people, masses thought it was the shit! Grand Master stated it was awful- but we all had to reinvent our game because that was what the people wanted.

    Kurtis Blow was the 1st major solo artist

    Da Brat the first to go platinum

    DJ Kool Herc had dancers during his break- they were the break boys...which eventually became known as breakdancing

    Grandmaster Flash invented what DJs do today- mixing songs together.

    Grandmaster's copartner little brother one day accidentally bumped record...- it didn't skip or scratch the needle slid...the young boy liked that sound and played wioth it...he became Wizard Theodore- who invented scratching to this day...every major DJ does it.
    side note- "The Adventures of Grandmaster Flash On the Wheels of Steel", the first record to only showcase turntablism.

    Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five again!! By 1983 they changed the game. Once they were known, doing videos, they felt compelled to speak on their hood, their problems, so what would be called conscious rap- started- the song called The Message.

    "It's like a jungle, sometimes it makes me wonder how I keep from going under"
    They backed that up with whitelines...people using coke to cope...


    I wanted to give RUN DMC the credit- & big bro Russell Simmons who along with Rick Rubin formed Def Jam because RUN DMC was the 1st rap group to headline tours...they came out on stage with a HUGE PAIR OF ADIDAS SNEAKERS THE SIZE OF 2 CARS- IT WAS WILD!!!


    So I think the greatest influence in rap music wasn't the best rapper. MC Hammer
    B4 him it was just guys on stage rapping- but with Michael & Janet Jackson videos highlighting dancers- he felt he was as good or a better dancer.

    When he did- according to Morris Day of the Time...his song 2legit toquit- fucked th game up Because it was a major #1 hit without musicians.
    From then on- mostly R&B, rap were given stupid limited budgets to record albums. Hammer did his with beat machine, sampling machine and overdubs and makes tens to hundreds of millions.

    Funk music died for a moment. Soul Music deemed for old folk and the young kids of the 1990s were fed digital algorythms for sound.
    (Until the album called the Chronic by Dr.Dre who was a fan of funk-rap music was about beat machines and sampling. Dr. Dre started playing instruments in his songs-which revived music into rap music again.

    Hammer was so inspirational, that rappers emulated them by having 300 hundred dancers on one stage!

    Yes Michael & Janet inspired pop artists to have dancers, but Hammer did it for rappers. Hammer made it possible to sell a hundred million copies without using musicians.

    Hammer IMO was/is the most influential rap artist ever.



    comedians had a field day with MC hammer wannabes




    @Spicoli @ykdadamaja who was the most influential rap artist/group/duo?

    Without hammer? No Wacky D!!

    First rapper to do a world tour like this. Looking at all those dancers, easy to see how expensive it be to feed all those mofos, pay em.



    A lot of rapper sell out shows, but none performed, none came close to doing it like Hammer, but boy o boy do they try.
