I am really disappointed with the hip-hop enthusiasts on Audiogon

Pmotz,

There is nothing denigrating. About this thread. I was just surprised with so many rap and hip hop fans here that his death  was never mentioned. After all he was the godfather of hip hop.

Rzado,

The article about Blowfly being the grandfather of hip hop is on the guardian.com. Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers and a lot of other rappers considered him the grandfather of hip hop. These aren't my words. They are words of his contemporaries.

"Is it true that if one listens to a lot of Rap, one develops an overwhelming desire to dye one's hair purple and to get as many tattoos as possible"

Wrong genre Oregonpapa.

"Buying Magico M series so I can listen to more hip hop"

I guess you are what the rappers call a big baller.
