What 1973 event is widely regarded as the birth of hip-hop culture?

On August 11, 1973, DJ Kool Herc held a party in the recreation room of an apartment building at 1520 Sedgwick Avenue in the Bronx, New York City. He introduced his technique of extending record drum breaks by switching between two turntables, creating a continuous rhythm loop. This event is considered the birth of hip-hop culture. Hip-hop celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2023 with performances by Lil Uzi Vert, Latto, Big Daddy Kane, and others at the June 25 BET Awards.
