I don't make $10 million, but if I can make a donation I don't see why I shouldn't...

that's actually kinda cool

I've always been impressed with Herc's delivery.

yeah, but why not set up a fund where 100 000 hip hop heads donate $10 each?

I'm sure you could send Herc a check c/o FedEx.

Wait, he's not getting any cash from his appearance on Dig Your Own Hole?

Yeah, and then all the super monied hiphop dudes could maybe throw some money at all the Jamaican deejays as well.

your sister sounds cool

Ok, I know this is terrible evidence, but this page

http://www.mojosounds.com/music/musicItemPage.php/inv_id=281910

lists Kool Herc as "additional personnel" on Elektrobank. It's not a music geek encyclopedia like discogs, so I'm guessing (hoping) that they took it out of the liner notes for the single. And I'm sure if he's listed there, he got some cash.

Right?

It's amazing how reasonable dude's fees are to DJ. Really a class act of a guy.
