Afrika Bambaataa created
electro funk and is one of the driving forces behind early
rap music. Whereas [Kool DJ Herc]
? and [DJ Hollywood]
? are the earliest
hip hop DJs (although Hollywood was more of a disco DJ, he influenced
Kurtis Blow and many others), it was[Grandmaster Flash]
? and Bambaataa who together founded the [Zulu Nation]
? and recorded some of the most important early rap/hip hop.
