This is a pretty dope thread... some mod should compile all the useful posts and make it a sticky or something..

But anyway, nos and chase pretty much covered everything. Except bboying was brought in the same time as DJing, and it's because of bboying they eventually decided to use 2 turntables to DJ with. There were sections of a record called "breakbeats" that bboys danced to, and afrika bambaata decided to use 2 turntables to make it easier to increase the length of the breakbeats. This lead to the productions of whole records just of breakbeats for the bboys.
