Today, hip-hop is loved the world over. But that wasn’t always the case, as legends MC Sha-Rock (The Funky 4 + 1) and Grandmaster Caz (The Cold Crush Brothers) can attest. Travel back in time with these true believers who knew way back when that hip-hop was not a fad. Hear Sha-Rock speak about her triumphant rise as the first woman MC, while Caz details how hip-hop had to fight for respect during the disco era. And there were more battles to be waged, as Sha-Rock had to sue to get her financial dues and Caz had to finally come to grips with his lyrics being ripped off and used on Sugarhill Gang’s “Rapper’s Delight.” This is an episode rich in hip-hop history and a lesson in lost riches.
