Many people were credited with creating hip hop, but the usual person people refer to is a Jamaican DJ who came to New York for the new scene of Disco/Pop. His name was Kool Herc, or DJ KH. He revolutionized sampling a specific loop and putting poetry over it. His house parties at the student's center in West Bronx, NY, on Sidgewick Avenue was the birthplace of this dominating genre of music.
