“THE LEGEND”… AFRIKA ISLAM Afrika Islam, a native of New York City, known as one of the pioneers of hip hop, started his musical career in 1977 in NYC as a break-dancer and MC of the legendary "Rock Steady Crew," before learning the art of mixing from the DJ legend Afrika Bambaataa. Afrika Islam has participated in the culture as one of the first Zulu Nation's first b-boys (Zulu Kings) and the first hip hop radio DJs (Zulu Beats radio show). He was the first to work immediately under Bambaataa and was responsible for doing the preliminaries at Zulu Nation parties in the 70’s, which earned him the title 'Son of Bambaataa'. Islam also co-wrote songs for the Soul Sonic Force and his own group called the 'Funk Machine'. In the late '70s Islam met Earl Chin at radio station WHBI, who offered the young DJ a show. After a short period as a DJ for the Rock Steady Crew in the early '80s, Islam moved to L.A. Once in L.A., Islam met the rapper Ice T. The two did a number of productions together. After various highly successful Hip Hop productions (in all a total of seven platinum records and many Grammy nominations - including the Colors and New Jack Hustler soundtracks). He also appeared in films such as Breakin' II and Pump up the Volume. Through his work with Ice-T, Islam also began remixing for other artists, including Michael Jackson, New Order, and the Eurhythmics. Afrika Islam also exported his successful Zulu Beats show to Japan in 1992. Finally Afrika came to a point where he decided to go a totally new path. As a result, he developed his very own crossover sound in which the major carrying elements are R´n´B, Hip Hop, Electro, Techno and House. In the mean time, Afrika Islam had made quite a name for himself in Europe. As a DJ, he participated in all of the major events such as the Love Parade or Mayday. Presently performs as Mr. X of the Mr. X and Mr. Y team (with Westbam – Love Parade Berlin creator). |
