Show Notes
Afrika Bambaataa, the influential hip hop pioneer, has passed away at 67. Known for his Bronx block parties in the 70s, he helped shape the culture with tracks like Planet Rock and Renegades of Funk. However, his legacy is complex due to child sexual abuse allegations from the 90s, which led to his removal as leader of the Universal Zulu Nation. Despite these controversies, his impact on hip hop remains undeniable.
