Philly is yet again not receiving credit when it is due.
First of all Grand Tone was from West Phill and moved to Mt Airy as a Teen. I was from North Philly and moved to West Oak Lane in 1970. I joined GMF in 1979 so there for I was before my man Schooly D. Just ask him cause he tells me all the time how he heard of us before he started player. Get your facts right pimp!!! Oh yeah I'm still working and so is Schooly......

That aint a short bio lol
Congrats, must have been such a great feeling to be a rapper in Philly at that time!
Metalhead from the area here. Rap ain't my thing, but those days in rap were truly something special and unique. You were a part of something during it's heyday, and that's gotta be a good feeling. Congrats on your accomplishments and contributions.
Grand Tone is The Father of DJ Diamond Cutz
The Hip Hop lingo used here is used all over the country by universal laws of hip hop. I grew up in the 80s & this vintage video give me so many memories. As youngsters that was into early rap. The fashions, how we talk, how we recite our rhymes, the jewelry we wore & the park parties was what we was all about. We was "Fly Guys & Girls" just having positive fun. The thing that made rap take off especially here in Philly was the fact rapping was easy to do & if you was good it made a name for you around your hood. It was fun times.....i missed them days so much. Youngsters out there if you want to hear stories of early hip hop in Philly & all that. Ask your parents about the skate parties & the rinks. Ask about the young guys break dancing in the middle of the street with the Boom Box radios playing the gems. Ask your parents about the house parties & the fashions we wore thinking we was "Too Cool" in school. Lastly, ask your parents about Power 99 FM Lady B live Hip Hop Mixing early hip hop gems on the radio. They tell you everything was love & peace & we made it look fly....
Wow! What a blast from the past.... the scanner boys where from my neighborhood at 17th & Wallace across from the bodega..... never thought I’d hear their name again.
This is my Philadelphia back when I was a growing up. Grew up in FKD in the 70s.
LOL BTW Respect to the Philly R&B Soul movement of the 60s and 70s who were very influential in inspiring the creation of Hip Hop, R&B, Garage & House music. MFSB, The O Jays, Patti Labelle and many others. To Cornbread, the 1st to do mordern day tagn in the 60s. To DJ Spinbad who created the transformer scratch and to Jazzy Jeff for introducing this style of scratch to NY at Union Square 86. Big up to Schooly D, Big Foot, Fresh Prince EST, Cool C &Steady B. and the whole Philly olskool. PEACE!
At 5:59 lets you know how tight his skills were and Philly was so creative we are one of the cities other than B-More and DC that did our OWN thing we didnt copy NY, we had our own slang such as Jawn and Youngboah our barbers were the best with the fade and everyone knew out Dj's were untouchable ie: Dj Miz, Cash Money, and Jazzy Jeff . And to this day we still have some of the best Grafitti writers around Philly styles have been copy and duplicated for years but no one wants to give us our prop
Philly actually started graffit...Cornbread was his name look him up..he started it all
@@scotiagrizz7927 definitely was one of the first to gain mainstream notoriety.
@@blackmale78 my friend he was thee first👍
@@scotiagrizz7927 taki 183 wasn't far behind if not at the same time
@@blackmale78 He was definitely right after him...Cornbread made national news with it...then others picked up on it..but i could be wrong 👐
Err.... Philly in da building , GERMANTOWN!
I believe this clip is from the BBC documentary 'The Story of English' from 1986. This brings back memories as I remember seeing it when I was in 9th grade. I felt really proud because they chose to focus on my city to end the series.
Parry P, Disco C, Eddie D, & Schoolly D are definitely The Godfather’s. And Pioneers of Philly Rap Music and that is the truth. They help build this Philly Rap Dynasty for real for real.
REAL HIP-HOP
What a sweeter time.
beforw New York was rapping! Jocko Henderson was on WDAS putting rhymes to words! I herad this in the early 70's!!! He's the one that made me want to try putting rhymes to music. Then I head King tim the third! Stop Playing!
"PARRY P"
Parry P Straight truth brother
graffiti's one of them things that's on-record as starting in the midst of the gang war era in 1960s philly.
215Christ depends what you call graffiti. Cholos were said to be writing as early as the 30s, probably before that in Mexico too.
Its footage of graffiti in philly in the 60's...if graffiti existed before that it should be footage someplace to prove it....and if it was they would have made a very big deal out of it just like the did when Cornered started graffiti in PHILADELPHIA 🔔
And im not even from Philadelphia..
I agree it had to be in the early or mid 80's
This when everything was original, fun, swag was on a beem
Perry P Philly Legend. heard stories bout bol.
Wow I Have Been Looking For This Like Crazy! Thanks For Posting This My Brother. I Wonder What Ever To These Brothers: Parry P, Grand Master Tone, And All The Scanner Boys. Big Up To Old School Philly Hip Hop! When It Was Pure And From The Heart.
Still Being Parry P.... Much Respect Fam....
@micknamer
Even some NY people credit a Philly guy name Cornbread as being the first graffiti artist. Look up this video:
GRAFFITI STARTED IN PHILLY
Yooo! I remember when this came out!
I been saying hip hop started in Phillyt because hip hop mc's in Philly are much deeper.
One luv Haak Blast West Philly Down The Bottom
Rest in peace GG Grand Tone, GMF and seeing this big up to the squad Gary O & Parry P. LARGE AND IN CHARGE- Mt A all day.
Tone B.
GMF was he DJ? id he also passed away? Thanks
@abxtale It all started with Schoolly D in West Philadelphia. As for travelling, well, I'm now in China. I live in Shanghai. Hip Hop is alive out here. No mean to insult you my friend. You're free to think what you want, but if you start a MA program in origins of hip hop, please be sure to include me in your faculty.
4:37 old school septa bus bring memories
I think that’s the old 56 trolley
@@1stwonder788 yes I was thinking the 23 looks like Germantown Ave. Maybe you are right but definitely a trolley tho.
4:32 *
Probably a trolley on SEPTA'S route 23. If so this was probably in North Philadelphia or Germantown/Nicetown-Tioga somewhere. I'm wondering if this was around Broad and Erie. If this was recorded back in 1984 like I read in the comments, then it's possible that that may have been a SEPTA trolley on the 53 depending if this was on the Wayne Avenue side of Germantown down by Happy Hollow. SEPTA took the trolleys off of the 53 permanently in May 1985.
So True!
This ain't 91 I can tell cause of the style this is between 86 87ish has to be
AmerikkasMostWanted Niggayouhate it doesn't say anywhere that it's 91
Oh no babe! This is even before ‘86
This is 83"
This about 84
WOW bump that 100x beat. Philly heads know!
I grew up in Philly area. We said "decent." It meant awesome or very good. Also no one said jawn in this video
@keem008 What's good Keem? What one must understand is elements which became known as hip hop elements date way back before hip hop culture was created. The art of the spoken word dates back to the early century from Cab Calloway howdy ho,(call n responce routine from the crowd in the 20s, Harlem), to playn the dozens, to The Last Poets(Harlem 60s), Jamaican toastin(60s) along w/ many other forms of lyrical showmanship which captivated the audience or as we say "move the crowd" ( MC). cont.
This is not 91 more like 85 86 times
@jacob7207 It all started with the DJs who were the precursurs of Hip Hop. That would be Pete DJ Jones(BX), Grandmaster Flowers(BK). These were THE 1st jocks to extend break beats in the late 1960s. Then Kool Herc in the early 70s. The 1st Master of Ceromony(MCs) was Eddie Cheba(Harlem NY), Luv Bug Starski(BX), DJ Hollywood(Harlem), Coke La Rock(BX who was Kool Hercs MC). These names I dropped blew up between 1968- 1973. That's your foundation of Hip Hop right there. Schooly D was way after.
Nice ;)
@jacob7207 Hip Hop started in the Bronx. Homeboy!!!
but, back to the subject, our means of surviving the gangwar and post-gangwar eras? philly created a lotta' things. when we got no credit or acknowledgement for anything, we kept it moving. now we have to get back in-touch with our own roots, neva'mind paying homage to what ain't home to us..that be the god's honest truth..
@keem008 The Bronx is only one borough in NYC which is slightly smaller in square miles and population than the entire city of Philadelphia. The Black Spades was a Bronx gang where African Bambatta came out of. But Hip hop also had alot of Hispanic influences. The slang in NY is deep metaphorically where alot of it also stayed in NY while alot of it goes mainstream. Terms like "word, homeboy, homie, rock as in rock the crowd" became household terms that NY started. Please get back at me!
@keem008 Haak Blast yal been down for years still got one of yall stickers, we was freestyling ing the line about to go into Dances back in the day!
Those guys are better MCs than most today. The could freestyle for 50 minutes over any beat. Most dudes today except like Hov and Em and some others. But mad dudes spit writen shit on radio shows and shit.
south jersey, southeastern pa counties, and delaware. naw just kiddin'. center city and chestnut hill maybe. mt. airy only looks nice, but they got history [some notoriety] to 'em too..
@keem008 And I was always under the impression that Corn Bread just tag. He didn't do pieces, burners & throwees. So a tag would not stand out on a Plane, train and other vehicles like a piece would. NY brought that to the table. Musically nobody was spinning breaks before GM Flower, Pete Jones& Kool Herc. Who was Rhymin in a Hip hop sense as we know today before Eddie Cheba, DJ Hollywood, Coke la Rock & Luv Bug Starski? Then we have the dresscode. Lees, addidas, Kangols, Mocknecks ect .all NY!
olney all day
Man we was ill back in da day! 😆
@keem008 Graffiti started in Philly no doubt. But NY was the 1st to take it to the trains. We were the 1st to do pieces like burners, throw ups, and Top to Bottom. Mixing breaks beats, MCin, B-boyn all started in NY. And No rapper of the time was deeper than Melle Mel, Kool mo D(inventer of fast rhyming), or Grand Master Caz.. And who was sayn terms like Fresh, Chill out, crib, wack 1st. Respect to Phillys history, however, HIP HOP STARTED IN THE BRONX! Don't ever deny that!
Does the melody near the end sound familiar to anyone into classic freestyle or electro? Hashim - 'Al-Naafiysh (The Soul)'! We can thank Google's advanced AI/spell check & my memory for helping me get the title I remember the melody from.
Ivy Agnes Nguyen Definitely sounds like Hashim ( it's time) I remember that record
Dj ToneyB Documentary coming EST 1976 Philadelphia Pa Funk Factory
man, it was in the 400s yearly since 1971. now it's down to 300-suh'm a year average. been messed up for generations.
yeah, it was. bx/nyc was the cover story, or was the cover-up/suppressor of what was jumping off in philly at parallel moments. phila. experiment sh#t..
word to the motherland...true, word from the 5%er dialogue since the '60s, meaning word is bond..
@truthfulexposure Yes wut type of area? The so called bad areas have nice places to live in them. West Philly has University City,North Philly has Northen Liberties,South Philly has areas near the Avenue of the Arts. Check those ares, you may like them.
They been saying Crib 😭😭
@jacob7207 BTW The term "word to your mother" is NY Slang yall incorporated into your lingo. Now tell me, am I lying?
2:58...far as I recall, south philly IS the hard part of south philly..back then...
...oh my bad, I see i made a whole book up in this piece...
grand tone is d.j. diamond cuts dad, right?
@jacob7207 Schoolly came after us! We started in 1979!
What people need to know is that Hip Hop culture did start in the Bronx but not all of the elements originated there. It's more that the elements were brought togther there into one culture. For example,dance styles like Locking and Popping started in California. NY people saw these Cali dancers on Soul Train(an L.A show) and then picked up on them. But breaking(going to the ground)did originate in NY.
CrowdPleeza. Break dancing ......nope Africa. There’s video out there from like 1959.
@@WaxDat8800 we have a video earlier than that with OUR ppl rapping. Good try tho
@@steev7343 what is OUR people? The point of the matter is that it is a black art form. So your little snarky comment falls way short. And by the way, rapping goes back way farther than the invention of video.
@@WaxDat8800 our people as in black people who aren’t from Africa bitch you knew wtf I meant pussy
@@WaxDat8800 I already know rap goes back before this video I literally said that there’s earlier videos of like I said the first time OUR people earlier than the date you put. Stop tryna discredit black Americans
@abxtale B4 people migrated to NYthey were in Philly during the 40's b4 that Philly's black population was huge NY took it to the trains that’s what NY had they wouldnt kno to do that unless writer Corn Bread & others b4 him took it to Airplanes and other transported vehicles in Philly Philly’s has a small geographic space u forced to come with new ideas do to closeness. Rhyming & dancing was going on in Philly long b4 NY NY understands marketing, coin names like Hip-hop
kids kids kids i grew up in the bronx graffiti started in the bronx thats final kids im 54 i was in my 20"s by 77 i remember those times clearly i used to get up i used to be snipe and im telling you graffiti started in the bronx and i think i was there when it started because we had something called reunions and everybody from like ten blocks apart would come and we were a group and we would tag and trash the city and cope was one of them and iz was too .. gimme a legend from phil. from the 70s
@MrParryp Not eevn Parry. I use to hear Jockos raps in the 70s to "Ain't no stopping us now" That was in the mid to late 70s. King Tim was definately not the 1st to do it in NY. He was just the first to go on wax. Eddie Cheba, Hollywood, Starski and Coke la Rock did it first.
It says it was ©️.1986
@seslnd DJjing started in the bronx, hip hop started in West Philly, Get it straight.
Will Smith and jazzy jeff
what year was this made?
1986 british documentary
how old are you?
@MrParryp 1979
yeah, nyc originated a lotta' slang. and philly originated its own slang as well. yo, yah'meen [compared to nahmeen] , jawn [compared to joint], bul [boy], bang [to fight, to shoot, or to f#ck], jam [to stick somebody up], man [the d#ck], eh, etcetera. I know why meth' man took the Yah'mean and made an anthem of it..
@abxtale what’s up? Hope all is well; I love this, so it's no disrespect in any way. I'm just glad we can have this debate? NY didnt create the cultural This video is showing hiphop in Philly after the fact that hiphop the name was created NY didnt create it. The culture was happng before the name Kid Creole nor Luvbug created hiphop the culture did not just happen like a magic trick. You have to closely examine Philly’s gang era and it was going on before NY’s gang era.

What does that have to do with......Mc'n, DJ'n, Graf,? That stuff is NYC. Some of the slang in this video is from Beat Street.
new York nj UK and Philly was the beginning of rap but NYC first
@abxtale I proving it now in a book it's deep and I will prove it. one the slang Philly had was and still is so deep that it tends to stay in Philly until some one comes in a take it with them. Another point Hip hop is a word that New York coined but the culture was going on for a long time in Philly before New York even knew what it was. It's deep so lets go. Hip hop the culture started with gangs right. I will cont tinue. Bronx did not have has many blacks as Philly
@jacob7207 I'm not sure what that means. But the fact still remains that hip hop culture started in the Bronx, NYC. If you feel the need to prove me wrong, then join in with the debate I'm having with my dude Keem.. BTW. I'm no young dude. So it ain't what I heard. It's about what I lived. From a original B-boy son!!! Come correct with yours or don't come at all!!!
@keem008 I respectfully disagree w/ your assesment. NY took grafn to the trains with the idea that their work can be seen in all boros as oppose to you havin to go to that spot to see their art. The term Hip hop came from the dudes who created the culture like Kid Creole & Luvbug Starski. The media called it Rap music for marketing purposes, The hip hop attitude came from the B-boy. B-boyn started in the Bronx. Your gonna tell me Philly was going down to the floor b4 NY? cont.
yeah, so, actually, each borough by itself ain't bigger in size than the area of philly. not bk, queens, bx, si, manhattan. but, population-wise, yeah we only have that over bx or s.i. we was neck-and-neck with manhattan for a time.
I ain't gon' take any credit away from nyc. philly tho', contributed a lot to the situation, even as far as groundwork for foundation of certain things.
Oh, iBeen Hearing A Lot Of Older Talk About How The Drugs Wre The Major Cause Of Death. But Now iKnow, Thanks.
North philly??
i hate bn from here but love that !!!!!
Gill Scott Harone and The Last Poets Started HIP-HOP, James Brown and George Clinton Started Hip-Hop! The Drums In Africa was the begining of Hip-Hop!
This is Funny, Parry P & G Tone was with Grandmasters Of Funk..From Mount Airy! Middleclass nice black neighborhood, with nice homes with lawns. Not that bombed out hood they're rapping in. Totally Fabricate BS! Also Parry ya'll wasn't around before Schooly D. Us West Philly heads were quite familiar with the "Heatburners Disco" from 52nd & Parkside back in 1980. That was Schooly's crew.
I grew up in Mt.Airy during the 80's trust bro in wasn't sweet. My brother's best friend was shot and killed in 85.
@razeone100 word
Drill Rap BLM ✊🏿 and George Floyd the soul of folk
@jacob7207 I give Phds to those who deserve it in hip hop. I'm a living documentary of this thing of ours. So don't try to use our slang against me in one sentence. Then in the next talk that "Hip hop started in Philly". It's hypocrisy to the fullest. Ask Jazzy Jeff where hip hop comes from.
Yo get at me, bro. Hit me at my face book Hakim Woods
lolololololololololololololololol
the hard part of south philly? shii, the black part(s) of south philly.
No way this was in 91... I'm thinking like 82-85! Nobody dressed or talked liked that at ALL after 1985! Also what farking gang was the Scanner Boys? They weren't from 52nd street where they had started this video. Total fabricated BS!!
The narrator seems very condescending.
