DJ Grandmaster Flash and his group the Furious Five were hip-hop's sterling innovators, transcending the genre's party-music origins to explore the total background of its lyrical and sonic horizons. Flash was natural Joseph Saddler in Barbados on January 1, 1958; he began spinning records as teenager growing up in the Bronx, performing springy at arena dances and impede parties. By old years 19, spell attending skilful school courses in electronics during the day, he was as well spinning on the local discotheque circuit; over time, he developed a series of groundbreaking techniques including "cut" (moving betwixt tracks on the nose on the beat), "back-spinning" (manually turning records to recur brief snippets of sound), and "phasing" (manipulating turntable speeds) -- in short, creating the canonic vocabulary which DJs keep to come with regular today.


Flash did non begin collaborating with rappers until around 1977, number one teaming with the fabled Kurtis Blow. He then began working with the Furious Five -- rappers Melle Mel (Melvin Glover), Cowboy (Keith Wiggins), Kid Creole (Nathaniel Glover), Mr. Ness aka Scorpio (Eddie Morris), and Rahiem (Guy wire Williams); the group cursorily became legendary throughout New York City, attracting notice not only for Flash's one and only skills as a DJ merely as well for the Five's masterly rapping, most famous for their signature trading and blending of lyrics. Despite their local popularity, they did non phonograph recording until after the Sugarhill Gang's crush "Rapper's Delight" proved the beingness of a market for rap music releases; after releasing "We Rap More Mellow" as the Younger Generation, Flash and the Five recorded "Superappin'" for the Enjoy label owned by R&B legend Bobby Robinson. They then switched to Sugar Hill, owned by Sylvia Robinson (no relative), after she promised them an chance to rap over a stream DJ front-runner, "Get Up and Dance" by Freedom (the musical theme had belike been originally conceived by Crash Crew for their unmarried "High Powered Rap").


That record, 1980's "Freedom," the group's Sugar Hill debut, reached the Top 20 on national R&B charts on its direction to merchandising over 50,000 copies; its followup, "Natal day Party," was besides a stumble. 1981's "The Adventures of Grandmaster Flash on the Wheels of Steel" was the group's beginning unfeignedly watershed recording, introducing Flash's "clipping" techniques to create a stunning sound collage from snippets of songs by Chic, Blondie, and Queen. Flash and the Five's future effort, 1982's "The Message," was even more revelatory -- for the first time, rap music became a vehicle not just for crowing and self-praise but for searching social comment, with Melle Mel delivering a blistering rap detailing the forbidding realities of life in the ghetto. The record was a major vital hit, and it was an tremendous step in hardening rap as an important and enduring mannikin of musical expression.


Following 1983's anti-cocaine polemic "White River Lines," dealings between Flash and Melle Mel sour ugly, and the rapper presently left hand the group, forming a new unit too dubbed the Furious Five. After a series of Grandmaster Flash solo albums including 1985's They Said It Couldn't Be Done, 1986's The Source, and 1987's Da Bop Boom Bang, he reformed the original Furious Five lineup for a jacob's ladder concert at Madison Square Garden; before long subsequently, the reconstituted grouping recorded a new LP, 1988's On the Strength, which earned a lukewarm reception from fans and critics alike. Another reunification followed in 1994, when Flash and the Five joined a blame parcel tour also including Kurtis Blow and Run-D.M.C. A year subsequently, Flash and Melle Mel as well appeared on Duran Duran's cover of "White Lines." Except for a few compilations during the belated '90s, Flash was comparatively quiet until 2002, when a geminate of mix albums appeared: The Official Adventures of Grandmaster Flash on Strut and Essential Mix: Classic Edition on ffrr.
