Summary

DJ and hip hop forefather Grandmaster Flash on this edition of Fresh Air. At the dawn of hip hop, he recorded with the Furious Five. Their hits included "The Message" and "White Lines (Don't Do it)". Nearly three decades ago, Flash created the 'Quick Mix Theory,' the process of blending one music break with another. Note: Because Audible was not granted full digital rights to today's broadcast, this edition of Fresh Air is 25 minutes long. (Original Broadcast Date: July 8, 2002)
