1. Hip Hop/Rapping & DJing At Club A7 On The Lower East Side of N.Y.C.(1981) - Vol. I. of Hip Hop Old School kicks off with a NEVER-SEEN-BEFORE video taped performance by Old School MC Easy Gee on the mic and DJ High Priest at the Club A7 on the L.E.S. This video features East Coast styled Old School rapping and DJ mixing that started the whole worldwide Hip Hop explosion. The footage is mad real, and to see it will hip you to what it was like hanging out in the days. Funky dope fresh!

2. TV MAGAZINE SHOW On Hip Hop Culture(1983) - This is a very well produced TV Magazine Show that explains the meaning and the purpose of Hip Hop culture through interviews by Hip Hop luminaries like Phase II., myself, the NY.C.B.s and Aresol Artist Brim. Everything about Hip Hop is explored including; Hip Hop fashion, the Breaking(provided by N.Y.C.B.s!), Graffiti Art, the language, etc. Very well done piece.

3. On Beat TV - Exerpt From Hip Hop TV Show Featuring DJ Jazzy Jay(1982) - This is an exerpt from a New York cable show I produced called “On Beat” that features DJ Jazzy Jay of the Zulu Nation. We see him at the Underground, one of NYC’s hottest Hip Hop clubs at the time, exhibiting his talents as a special mix DJ. This piece also features Hip Hop dancing and Graf Artists taging up on the walls of the club!

4. K-ROB & DJ HIGH PRIEST Throw-Down(1982) - Two well known Hip Hop Artists of the Old School crew rock a B-beat Mix; K-Rob on the microphone, High Priest on the wheels of steel y’all!

5. TV NEW YORK!(Hip Hop TV Show)(1982) - A NEVER-SEEN-BEFORE Hip Hop TV Show I aired on NY cable TV, long before anyone was even video taping, or filming Hip Hop events. I like to describe it as the Hip Hop version of Soul Train but hipper, with real kids from the streets doing the funkest Hip Hop dances, real graffiti being made on the spot by Aresol Artists like Futura, A1 and more with appearances by Old School DJs like Grand Mixer D.S.T.! I think it’s BETTER than anything you’d see on regular TV!

6. Bronx River Hip Hop Throw-Down(1983) - Awesome, historical piece with glimpses of DJ Afrika Bambaataa, DJ Jazzy Jay, DJ Red Alert, The Cold Crush Brothers, Bronx Breakers, Major Graffiti Burners and Hip Hop Kids from the neighborhood doing funky fresh Old School Hip Hop dances and wearing the funky fresh Old School Hip Hop fashions. This short has mad flavor!

7. Fab 5 Freddy On The Mic, With Electric Boogie Dancers(1982) - This is THE Fab 5 Freddy years before he became famous and began hosting “Yo! MTV Raps!”. He is smooth and funky, no wonder he blew up!
|
|
8. FUTURA DELUXE Meets The N.Y.C.B.s(1982) - This is a NEVER-SEEN-BEFORE special documentary on the infamous Graf/Aresol Artist Futura as he busts out a whole wall piece for one of my TV NEW YORK Shows, with great shots/footage of the N.Y.C.B.s mixed in. A double-trouble treat!

8. SQUAT THEATHER Throw-Down(1983) - This is NEVER-SEEN-BEFORE footage of a Hip Hop event in downtown Manhattan featuring Easy Gee and a whole host of DJs, Poppers, Lockers and Aresol Artists.

9. Hip Hop Old School Vol. I. ends with a 1 minute long interview from my syndicated show “Graffiti Rock”, where I ask a B-Boy and B-Girl to explain their Hip hop fashion. It ends with the B-Boy saying,”I sport it fresh Holmes!” and I say,”Worrrrd!”
