When organising block parties, both a DJ and an MC were needed.

Herc began his career as an MC.

Herc came up with hip hop when he realised people didn't like the music he was playing.

The first hip-hop party spread to a park.

Hip hop got its name from the lyrics of a song.

At parties, b-boys and b-girls competed against each other.
