Breaking? Please, a week late and a dollar short. This is offensive to all the Bambaataa heads out there that have been hip to this since monday morning. Tell Larry to play Planet Rock on Street Sounds this week. (The Original Mix)

Perhaps 'breaking' has more than one meaning, with some senses particularly relevant to hip-hop?

Dumb white guy here: What happened 40 years ago that 'started' hip hop?

DJ Kool Herc started spinning in the Bronx in the summer of 1974. DJ Hollywood was mixing and MCing before that, but whatevs.

@3/5 is correct.
