Kurtis Blow

Kurtis Blow, (born Kurtis Walker on August 9, 1959), is one of the most influential early rappers and rap's first star. "The Breaks" (1979) is one of rap's undisputed classics (basically a catchy disco tune with rapping) and Nas made a new version of Blow's "If I Ruled The World". He was influenced by DJ Hollywood.
