- In this flashback, Grandmaster Caz weighed in on who he thinks are guests in the house of hip-hop, and he explained that anyone came in after the birth of hip-hop, regardless of color, are guests. Grandmaster Caz then stated that Latinos weren't original pioneers in hip-hop, and he added that they came in after the inception.

As a Latino from New York I gotta admit that yes other cultures have added their own flavor to the hip hop culture it’s that New York is a melting pot … but we can’t claim to have invented this culture this is definitely a black art form now salsa and merengue is a different story . We invented those rhythms and culture but not hip hop let’s keep it real
Salsa Merengre Reggae was also created by Foundational Black Americans
@@C--Ray lol 😂 listen maybe you are right but to my knowledge salsa is named that way because of a mix of influences combined to make a genre of music … so you might be right or you might be wrong cause there is a lot of contributing factors to make the culture and music . Merengue is from Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 without a doubt so can’t agree with you there .
@@C--Ray keep in mind African people were brought to Latin America wayyyyy before they arrived in the USA 🇺🇸 😉
@@C--Ray black people created everything lol. They invented everything why not.
Salsa, merengue, and bomba also was passed down from west african ancestry. All the skin drums came from africa.
So let me ask yall a question, when "them" puerto ricans were messing with the bongos timbales congas across the street, where did that music come from? What music was salsa inspired from? From white people? Skin covered drums were passed from west african ancenstry used in salsa and in and especially bomba music, this music was always a way to resist anti african sentiment from the spaniards and to this day the african spirit of africa is always present in puerto rican culture with its music, food, and even in the language with words only someone local would understand. My grandma was born and raised in puerto rico in the early 30's, she never even knew that in the USA whites and blacks went to segregated schools because all that crap never existed in PR. Light skinned down to the darkest person in PR all live in the same neighborhoods and we are all mixed in the same family and all one people, color makes no damm diffirence. Has there ever been racism? Absolutely and it goes both ways and it stems from stupid ass conversations like this one that are only meant to seperate and not celebrate the reality from people who were not even there! Hip hop was born in 70's in the bronx, and if you think puerto ricans weren't there and didnt feel that rythym down to their bones, than yall straight ignorant and hating like a mf. You cant erase history just because all the white people wanna live and buy up the damn block now in 21st century. At the same time how is a 15 year old black kid from Los angeles, alabama or anywhere down south supposed to know latinos were there in the 70's hip hoppin?? Puerto Ricans dont have deep roots in the south and west like in NY, so alot of black americans people cant identify with puerto ricans but what can we expect especially from this newest generation. To all beautiful black American people who are extremely proud that from all the difficulties and misfortunes of the hood, was born the best type of music (HIP HOP), thank you for it all but latinos were always there and still here 150%. And to anyone looking from the outside in, get over it.
People wont listen bruh, everyone wants to be the proud owner of something. Those whithout a chip on the shoulder love and appreciate ✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
Broken down perfectly.
I don't agree with you but this is very well said.
Amen to that...
Exactly!!!! Many people do not know it but Puerto Rican culture as a whole is African based. The dancing, the instruments, the music and the food ALL take their roots mainly from Africa. We didn't addopt or steal it, it was handed down from our African ancestors. Our island also endured slavery long before the states. The first plantations in American history started in the Caribbean with sugar cane and rum. I myself have little African blood in me but my grandmother on my father's side was 40% African, 40% taino, 20% European. She came from Luiza Puerto Rico, one of the biggest ports that also gave birth to Bomba, a very African dance and music that is 💯 Puerto Rican. And music and dance of revolution. Looking at early B boy culture very much reminds me of bomba in the sense that it was used to conversation with dance. The dance area was a circle in the middle. It was called the Batey. It was an open space for dancers to communicate with each other and the drummers. To me it very much in that sense is relatable to b boy break dancing. Yes, the moves are different but the emotions and messages are all interlinked.
Even legendary Puerto Rican Dj Charlie Chase from the Cold Crush Brothers said other Latinos use to dis him for being down with hip hop (they'd call it a derogatory word)......and this interview is on video.
Charlie Chase was from back in the 70's, so he'd know. So it's a complete exaggeration that Latinos were a part of hip hop from the beginning.
Their was black people dissing hip hop too though… hip hop started in the bronx the culture was formed by both blacks and Puerto Ricans and this is a indisputable fact
@Bored Rican Veteran I think they “contributed “ to hip hop would be a better way of putting it.
@@lethal5flow679 that’s a fine way to put it also… however I do think Puerto ricans were a part since the beginning. Bronx is heavily intertwined with black and Puerto Rican’s I’m from the east coast we are one it’s not like the Mexicans and black people on the west coast we were there tagging and break dancing enjoying to go along with the battles and the dj’s some great Puerto Rican MC’s too I don’t understand why we would try to paint either side as a culture vulture where I’m from we are one culture
@@boredricanveteran9433 LISTEN…. Stop it, ya’ll NEVER created this ok, just accept the fact and move on !
Latinos and Hispanics aren't the same thing.
This statement is true " Puerto Rican in the bronx at the time would say we got our own latin thing "!
Exactly I remember they was always playing handball in the parks. Some where kool too.
That was the era of the Fania all stars and Salsoul in Nueva York

Blacks invented hip hop and the puerto ricans came in later once the party's started to hit the streets. Puerto Ricans contributed and added on especially in Bboyin/Rockin (Breakdancing). It's funny how they claim they claim to be there from the beginning when most of them didn't associate with Black people at all.
I was just saying this. How you claim to be apart in creating something when the two communities were essentially segregated.
Lies I'm from the BX/And Harlem ...on my block in the 70s all my boys were black and I'm Puerto Rican... Ya'll Must Have Forgot block etiquette if you live on the same block then we family regardless of color even in the projects Patterson, Millbrook Bronxdale, Prospect, Soundview...we had each other back ..... unless you all from the Bronx or Harlem you don't know what the fuck you're talkin about especially about this music right here if you were not here from the beginning (i was) you an observer don't forget it homie
Exactly alot of them didn't even like black people and would call them the N word.
Exactly Puerto Ricans ain’t trying to take the credit we just saying we contributed , that’s it

I brought my 12 inch "Rappers Delight", "Cold Crushin Lover", and "Love Rap" to my 6th grade class. Teacher allowed us to push the desks against the wall, blast the music (well, on school phonograph) and DANCE. We kept playing Rappers Delight because everyone would sing along as they knew the words. However, when I put on Spoonie G's "Love Rap" the kids got quiet and stopped dancing. Spoonie G was too advanced at the time for most 6th graders...
I brought a record by "Lady B" as well, which wasn't that great. After a while, the Principal of the school told my teacher to shut down the party, put the desks back in place, and get back to 6th grade work...
I'm an American Puerto Rican. Born and raised on the Lower East Side of Manhattan...

That Mexican rapper who says he would never sigh to a black executive or black own label while he is a culture vulture imitating everything we do we should have these guesses pay monthly rent to hip hop to the culture…..
Shut up if it wants for US latinos hiphip wouldnt get nationally known
Vlad tried To stop him with that question he articulate it exactly why and how jamar is a Descendent of hip-hop
Why was the question even asked? Is Jamar PR?
DJ Kool herc was a Jamaican immigrant, he is also the creator of hip hop. What does slavery have to do with the foundation of hip hop again?
So eloquently put good brother
That’s it and that’s all!

This comment is so stupid. How are you gonna declare yourself anything when even you say “we pay rent”. That means you don’t own it even if you do. The people who created it or own it decide what you are. Not you.
DJ Kool Herc, is Jamaican! And that whole building at 1520 Sedgwick Ave in 70’s to 90’s and probably now (I joined the Army on Fordham rd) was and is Multi Ethnic! Hip hop was Predominant “Black” but always elements of other cultures!

There where more than 2 the Puerto Rican poets influenced rap
This video is actually incredible. W for Vlad here. Caz articulated the entire Fba position before the movement even existed. He has since backtracked but his candidness in this interview is very telling. Hip Hop is in the genes...
I noticed he backtracked but why?
Who is the person that made up the word "hiphop" and the 5 elements? Just curious
its started as MC . "Master of ceremony"
And where did the word rap come from?
Grand master Caz is not the first rapper 🧐
Yes u are a guess in our house 🏡 period see few blacks are gonna keep it 💯 but hey it is what it is💯
(DOS/Black Americans/Israelites) created hip-hop/rap music 🎶 plain and simple...
What I told you they was guest to the culture just like house music back in the early 80s those other races was guest
Let’s ask what KRS- ONE says about PR and hip hop
Someone tag Fat Joe !!!!
Surprised they still acknowledge Jamar. Maybe this is a peace offering to get him back on. And if hip hop is a birthright then Ben Carson can put out another rap song for his next campaign.
It’s a old flashback
Hip-hop belongs to blacks period! The rest of us must respect & acknowledge this..
Black Americans to be exact
Classical Music belongs to whites PERIOD. The rest of yall sampling our music must respect and acknowledge this! 👊you’re all just a guest at the house of the greatest most impressive genre in music history period.
@@sleepisthecousinofdeath7395 no one cares. Most of hip hop samples blues, R&B and other black genres

caz the first rapper??? since when?
Back in the day ....after Rappers Delight and Supa Rhymes came out me and my Brother were the only ones from our cousins that fucked with hip hop....the rest Freestyle, Salsa, Merengue...and theyd clown us so Caz is speaking truthfully....im 57 yrs old btw and have been loyal since....1976

Actually, Caz replied on "radical Latino" channel correcting what he said here on this interview which discredited all the coloborative efforts.
This is the truth DJVlad interview. Any black person in the Bronx knows this. He changed it so Revolt TV and the agenda they pushing won't look bad. They have power and deep pockets.
Hip hop is dead, officially cause when you can’t tell the truth without worrying about losing money, or being hated, you’re in a messed up situation

I've seen blacks praise AL Hartford claiming him with pride and than switch faces after finding out " oh wait...he's latino". So now NBA player AL Harford is not black anymore?? Is it skin color that dictates and or culture? The average African American is confused about what Black really is.
Nah the average Latino is confused
I think our history is too complex for Americans to understand lol 😂 there’s a lot of black people in the Latino culture . USA doesn’t teach history the right way just like everything else they do here . Only country in the world who reads temperature in Fahrenheit and weight in pounds 🤷🏻♂️ they tell the story they wanna tell but that’s not the peoples fault .. If we really knew our history we would not be making all these sorry comments . As far as Hip Hop goes in my opinion it’s an art form invented by under privileged youth in urban America . Bronx NY it would be hard to tell who created it but without a doubt black Americans living in the ghettos at that time have the most influence in the art form . I’m sure others like Latinos or Puerto Rican’s added their flavor as well but black American culture was and is the dominating culture in hip hop . Merengue and Salsa on the hand I’d like to say was created and promoted by Latinos who are of mix race .. peace and love ✌🏼
Race & nationality/ethnicity are not the same. Horford is both....Black and Latino descent.
@@MannyMonchy I think many Latinos are more confused about history...or maybe they choose to IGNORE what they want.
@D.Nice.. Nah many blacks are confused and are bitter about being more distant from their African roots than Caribbean latino for example. The dudes you call Latinos from down there are more in touch with African culture than you probably are. Who in the hood the Congas??? Lol!! Ya'll out of touch and can't see the deeper picture thinking black started in the south...yeah...that's the slave master.culture that came after that Congo was thrown off the boat. We were ripped of our culture but peep who keeps it realer and where the music comes from.
Bunch of Caribbean dudes helped with inception of hip hop. He just said it but then says no WTH 🤣
Black Americans created Hip Hop
Carrabean is still blacc. Most puerto rivals identify as Spanish (Spain is in Europe, aka whyte)… also in Puerto Rico or Cuba, on the census, there’s only 3 options, whyte, black or mixed race. So even Puerto Ricans an cubas differentiate between being a black or wyte Puerto Rican.
You sir are white
No you didnt.
Do Caribbean people not count as Black? Or is that only when they want all the credit?

So, there was a Puerto Rican there with you building hip hop but .... is always the racist card! look man reality is Puerto Ricans lost their home got robbed of our industries in the island and got forced to be in the places white people pushed us to ... right next to black african and in all reality we as Puerto Ricans have all the soul and customs from our roots because Puerto Rico is the first USA with out the prosperity we mixed because our island got influences from everywhere and has been subjogated since then till now and going to tomorrow. so when you speak about a Puerto Rican yes we are Boricuas Brave Warriors that battle ....

With all due respect to Caz, he is wrong on Puerto Ricans. Puerto Ricans have been there since day one. He even admitted it by mentioning Whiz. This is all documented. Sociologists and historians at Hunter college have this all documented. There are books and witness accounts of those of us who grew up in the Bronx. The truth is that Hip Hop would not have garnered the attention of the world had Puerto Rican not been involved. As he stated, there was and unfortunately still is a lot of contention against Blacks due to racism and prejudice. It was worse back then so there was no way this art form could have arisen to this global popularity had Puerto Ricans (who come in all colors) not been involved and helped spread it. There was a collaborative effort that is a better way to state it than this nonsense that people were "guests."
Puerto ricans were the original slaves in the new world...just ask all the afro latinos that make up the majority of the south BX since the 50's...why do u think they all lived together
Well whats Fat Joe got to say now?
Last I heard Porky Pig is claiming Puerto Ricans invented Drill Music 🐷
Why are they laughing at congas and timbales?
Just sad
He literally just said a Cuban and Puerto Rican was his first DJ... So we were literally one half of this foundational combo... Of course they faced racism. Everybody is racist. My Puerto Rican grandmother always been black and proud to be black. She has black grandchildren and black siblings. She racist to all shades of everything... But she phony as hell cuz she still sweet and kind to everybody. And she's respected as a RELIC of El Barrio de Humboldt Park. By the Latinos and the blacks. And guess what they all cool, and also not cool. So long as they cool.
he said latinos didnt blah blah then a literal second later said his first DJ was Puerto Rican. Cause go back and look at who was around in the south bronx back in 75 yo. alot of the brothers, maybe Cas dont know this, alot of the brothers, as he says children of slaves, were afro latino. at the parties, on the mic, on the turntables, fn with the light poles, sitting on top of the fence. a whole bunch of Ricans and afro latinos. but whatever, nobody losing sleep over this bullsht anymore
it was strange anyway; Hip hop is clearly a black artform
Some of you guys are being ignorant, Black and Puerto Rican neighborhoods have been around in New York since the 50's. Look up "The Young Lords", they became tight with the Black Panthers back in the 60's and would do protest together against racism in the city of New York. To say that Ricans weren't there in the 70's is straight out bullshit. They are a part of Hip Hop.
How come there are no Puerto Ricant cultural elements incorporated in hip-hop. Every aspect of hip-hop screams black american young men and women.
@@jayjones251 I guess you never heard that most of the cuts on the first two Public Enemy albums were done by Puerto Rican DJ Johnny Juice Rosado. By the time Fear Of A Black Planet came out Terminator X had full control of the turntables. Hey, and lets not forget Prince Markie Dee of The Fat Boys, homeboy was Puerto Rican. Facts!🖤
@javiercales5019 Yeah, that's participating, though. I'm talking about cultural elements from Puerto Rican culture, not individuals who just participated in black american culture.
@@jayjones251 We all know that Hip Hop was created by African Americans, from the James Brown samples to the MC's rhyming style. But Puerto Ricans or Jamaicans should not be considered guests in the community. We were there from the beginning of it's creation and supported it. I know Fat Joe put his foot in his mouth when he said that it was created by Blacks and Ricans 50/50.
