A thread about the history behind some of the most iconic Hip Hop logos.
1. Public Enemy
Designed by Chuck D who was a graphic designer. This iconic logo symbolised an African American B-boy, the logo was meant to represent how black men are seen in American society.

Wishing you and yours ar happy, healthy and prosperous year ahead. 🐴🧧🥟
Rest in beats, Simon Harris. 🕊️
2nd Nov - thinking of our wee pal Del aka. Soul Condor on the anniversary of his passing.
Sending big prayers & much love to his family & friends, as we remember the legend who had an encyclopaedic knowledge of Hip Hop & incredible vinyl collection.
You are much missed. ❤️🕊️
Del brought many people together, through our love of Hip Hop culture.
Online friendships also created real life friendships. I think of him often, as Del showed us the importance of friendship, kindness & positivity through adversity.
May you continue to Rest in Beats.

Currently making my way through some Hip Hop albums from 1994 that I haven’t listened to for ages.
The Beatnuts ‘Street Level’ still sounds amazing, 🔥🔥🔥
Getting some work done this morning so my playlist is LJones for some chilled Hip Hop beats. Soul Below is a great album for thinking and vibing.
Revisiting one of my favourite Hip Hop albums from 1989, from the legend known as Schoolly D.
The title track still slams hard. 🔥🔥🔥
It’s been a fun and busy few months of celebrating Hip Hop culture, meeting cool people and having a blast.
Check out our latest short film that captures the good times and great music.

I couldn’t sleep last night ‘cos I was on such a buzz from seeing Mary J Blige & Soul II Soul.
My brain was still dancing & singing & my body was tired, so there was an ongoing battle.
Today is gonna be hard, hopefully I can sleep on the train home later.
Music is healing.
This feels like an Ocie Elliott kinda morning. If I was sat in the car with them whilst they were performing ‘Hold my Name’ I would be blubbing my eyes out.
Their harmonies are so beautiful.

Kindness is a universal language.
The power of compassionate actions should never be underestimated or taken for granted.
Going out, out on a week night to see Slum Village.
Hopefully I can stay awake as my bed time is 10pm. 🤣
After yesterday’s fun at Finger Lickin’ & hearing Plump DJs play one of my fave Breaks tracks ‘Crooked’ by Evil Nine, it made me think of my first mix that I had to do when I was learning to DJ a couple of years.
I need to start practising again!

My day of successful adulting has peaked.
I hoovered the tops of my sneaker boxes. I need a lie down now, that was quite tiring.
