Grandmaster Flash Australian Tour

Grandmaster Flash is one of hip-hop's founding fathers and has helped to propel DJs such as Funkmaster Flex, Grand Wizard Theodore, Kid Capri, DJ Scribble, Jazzy Jeff, Jam Master Jay, Q Bert, the Scratch Pickles, Cash Money, and many others, to stardom. His group, The Furious Five, was a premier group toward the mid-1970s known for their choreography, studded leather stage wear, and fierce rapping skills. Group member Cowboy, the first MC for Flash, pioneered phrases like "Throw your hands in the air, and wave 'em like ya just don't care!," Clap your hands to the beat!," and "Everybody say, ho!," which have become staple in rap and hip-hop culture. When asked what Australian audiences can expect from his up coming tour, Flash responded "I’m gonna play the music of the years where skill was what you had to have in order to survive, then I’m gonna slowly bring it up to 2003 from a dj’s standpoint which is the pillars of hip hop”
