Jay-Z Acknowledges Hip-Hop Pioneer Kool Herc At Yankee Stadium
Jay-Z took a moment during last night’s Home & Home tour finale at Yankee Stadium to acknowledge Kool Herc, the father of hip-hop.
With all this recent talk of young acts “paying homage” to the people that paved the way, it’s good to see a veteran like Jay-Z actually doing it in front of thousands and thousands of people for someone that paved the way for him!
