DJ Hollywood, Kool Herc, Bambaataa, all those great DJs from the early seventies are the architects of hip-hop. And the boombox is basically where we would be able to hear what was going on in those other neighborhoods because guys would make cassette tapes, and cassette tapes would travel around. It was two steps away from the pigeon taking a note from one town to another back in the days when there was no telephone. It’s the same kind of thing, you know, listening to hip-hop music. And unless you were old enough to go to the party, you’d have to wait until the summertime, till they came out in the park and you could sneak out to hear it for free.

— Kool Moe Dee (PIONEER HIP-HOP MC)
