		THE GODFATHER OF Afrika Bambaataa is one of the three main originators of break-beat deejaying, and is respectfully known as the "Grandfather" and "Godfather" of Hip Hop Culture as well as The Father of The Electro Funk Sound.
		Bambaataa was the first to use the newly coined term Hip Hop to encompass all the elements of the music, graffiti, dance, rap,dj's and knowledge; thereby identifying Hip Hop as a unique culture unto itself.
		Afrika Bambaataa, the godfather of hip-hop and creator of the 1980s electronic-beat classics ``Planet Rock'' and ``Looking for the Perfect Beat,'' has been directing people to find their own beat ever since he helped design what is now a global culture.

		Bio: A seminal Bronx DJ during the 1970s, Afrika Bambaataa ascended to godfather status with Planet Rock, the 1982 hip-hop classic which blended the beats of hip-hop with techno-pop futurism inspired by German pioneers Kraftwerk.
		Even before he began recording in 1980, Bambaataa was hip-hop's foremost DJ, an organizer and promoter of the large block parties during the mid- to late '70s which presaged the rise of rap.
		Bambaataa had moved to the background by the late '80s (as far as hip-hop was concerned), but the rise of his Zulu Nation collective -- including De La Soul, Queen Latifah, A Tribe Called Quest, and the Jungle Brothers -- found him once more being tipped as one of rap's founding fathers.

		When Bambaataa was still known as Kevin Donovan, he was a persuasive leader in the Black Spades gang, a notorious group of street toughs who, along with other gang members, later reformed in 1973 as the Zulu Nation, a grassroots activist organization.

	Ink 19 :: Afrika Bambaataa
		It should be remembered that Afrika Bambaataa foreshadowed the rap/punk fusion of the ‘90s with his groundbreaking collaboration with John Lydon, "World Destruction.” I’m not sure if he should be credited or blamed for that, but it should be remembered.
		Bambaataa was one of the true visionaries of hip-hop with releases like the aforementioned “Planet Rock” and (my fave) "Looking for the Perfect Beat." He set a standard that would influence at least a generation of followers and helped define a style of music.
		The problem Bambaataa has over 20 years down the road is not uncommon to visionaries: Once you’ve gotten everyone going in the same direction you are, it’s really easy to be overtaken by the herd.

		Though Afrika Bambaataa has been called "the High Priest of Hip Hop," and "The Godfather of Hip Hop," the passage of time has positioned him as the "Self-Realized Master of Hip Hop" and one of music's brightest burning luminaries of our time.
		He founded a youth group in his neighborhood called The Zulu Nation, organized with the concept of using music as a path to peace and presenting music-drenched gatherings where neighborhood kids could come together and learn to interact without violence.
		Using two turntables and funk music as his core, Bambaataa mixed things up by tossing in the spice of dance music, rock music, and even German electronic music such as Kraftwerk.
