Live at the W Hotel

Hip Hop Inspirations pt. 1

One of the genres of music that continues to move me is Hip Hop. From my break dancing days in the early 80's till now - as an active DJ and and band member in The Continental Soldiers I continually find inspiration in both old and new Hip Hop. Here is a list of 20 songs that I have loved over the years. This is by no means close to a complete list but it's a start. Once again this was an on the fly mix with two 1200's and a mixer. Some vinyl and some digital but all good shit. Stay tuned for pt. 2 with The Continental Soldiers. Song\Artist 1. Minus 8 - Zero 2. Boogie Down Productions - The Bridge Is Over (Loop) 3.
