Hip Hop Be Bop

Welcome to the start of the revamped website. Apologies for the lack of posts but as you can see, the website is currently being updated.

This is the new home page and there'll be new artist pages to follow. Instead of the drop downs just click the Artist A-Z above to go to a complete alphabetical list of everything posted. Over time all multiple posts by the same artist will be placed under one post and include all their releases. All this is going to take me a long time to complete so bare with me.

The shop is still open as usual so feel free to browse the stock.

About

The aim of the website is to document hip hop vinyl releases from 1979-1986 and, when available, show the label variations which were released. The focus is on US and UK 12″ singles but other formats and origins will be thrown into the mix.

After committing so much of his life to this culture, Hip Hop needs your help!

Kurtis Blow is a music and film producer, actor, recording artist, b-boy, DJ and now a Minister. It's been 40 years since he became the first rap artist signed to a major label and I think now is the time for his contribution to hip hop to be rewarded by inducting him into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2020. Please help acknowledge his work by clicking the link below and signing the petition. Thank you.
