One of hip-hop's founding fathers, Flash was the first person to change the arrangements of tunes by scratching the records.
His style quickly caught on and helped propel DJs such as Funkmaster Flex, Jazzy Jeff and Cash Money, among others, to stardom.
His group The Furious Five were known for their studded, leather stage clothes and fierce rapping skills and helped pioneer popular phrases like "throw your hands in the air" and "everybody say, ho!"
If you want to see the daddy in action, you know where to go.
