DJ Kool Herc, born Clive Campbell on April 16, 1955, in Kingston, Jamaica, is regarded as a foundational figure in the development of hip hop music. He moved to the Bronx and initially played reggae records, but since many in the Bronx were unfamiliar with reggae, he began to play funk music instead. While hip hop was influenced by other DJs, such as DJ Hollywood, DJ Kool Herc's contributions were crucial to the genre's emergence and evolution.
