Grandmaster Caz is the illest

my boy and i took this tour to check out historic places in NYC that were important in the early days of hip hop. As both of us have been down with hip hop for 10-15 years we werent after the beginner class style that the tour was. Would have been dope if the tour have delved deeper into the mindset of the movement (but cant expect much as its more aimed at tourists/people who dont follow hip hop). Caz was the best mc we could have hoped for, entertained us like crazy and we were lucky enough to meet KRS-1 on our tour so u aint gonna catch too much reck from us. Look forward to a tour (if possible) that takes heads deeper into the old stomping grounds of all the elements of this ish'. THOROUGHLY RECOMMEND - U NEVER KNOW WHO U COULD CATCH CRUISIN WITH CAZ IN NYC!!

Not a bad tour.

I thought the enthuiasm shown by our guide was second to none but I think it would of been nice to have met further uptown to avoid the journey uptown which seemed to take a great length of time. I hoped we would of spent a bit more time in the Bronx and visited a few more spots rather than the one port of call at Sedgewick Avenue. Although seeing KRS 1 was a bonus I would of thought a visit to the Wildstyle Amphitheate or to Kool Herc's old club would of been more educational to the Hip Hop enthusiast than a trip to 125th Street. And I felt the restaurant trip was not really necessary. Cas was a good tour guide and his rap at the end of the tour was a good end to an overall satisfying 4 hours.

Ce fut une agréable surprise de découvrir cette église en plein coeur de Harlem! Une église où le début de la cérémonie est effectuée sous le signe du rap et de l'impro le tout accompagné de véritables musiciens. Vint ensuite l'unique, le véritable Kurtis Blow venu répandre la bonne parole: un moment inoubliable. On se dit alors que les vrais valeurs du hip-hop ne sont pas encore mortes... Merci HusH Tours, merci Harlem! peace from France

the greatest thing about the tour was definitely the guide, grandmaster caz. he was very funny and inspiring - and he told some funny anecdotes about the birth of hiphop. if you can live with the awkward feeling of going on a safari into places where regular people live (you'll - rightfully - catch some bitter comments from the people living in harlem and in the bronx) i can definitely recommend it. bless up!

If you have any interest in music this tour is a must for you. Grandmaster Cas, our tour guide, was superb and to think he was at the forefront of this music revolution is amazing. This tour will take you to parts of New York you will not otherwise visit, and you will also get an excellent history lesson long the way. A fun informative tour that will probably be the highlight of your holiday. Also great for teenagers if they are into hip hop.

My 15-year-old son and I have a somewhat limited interest in hip hop per se, but we dig the culture, graffiti, origins of all black music styles, including jazz, old style R&B, soul, funk, etc. Our charming tour guide, 'Reggie Reg' from the legendary 'Crash Crew' (authentic Sugarhill Records act, known for their 1980 debut 'High Powered Rap' ) met our 8-strong walking group at an uptown museum, and walked us to deepest Harlem, via the Graffiti Wall of Fame, Apollo Theatre and Happyhouse Record Store Reggie spun the sounds on a portable speaker, including S Wonder, J Brown and Fatback Band and explained how hip hop came about through young R&B fans in the Bronx wanting to make their own noise, DJ-ing, scratching, rappping, taking it all the way to Grandmaster Flash, Sugarhill Gang, etc. By recording live DJs direct onto their boom boxes and recycling cassettes to the new young hip hop market, pioneers like the Crash Crew virtually invented the illegal download (!) and today's multi million dollar hip hop industry. Reggie finished the two hour walk on 125th Street - an area us whiteys would have avoided even five years ago - but no worries, it was as calm as Downtown Disney, with loads of great record and clothing stores, and for a thrilling remnder of the past, the Hotel Theresa building where Cab Calloway, Ray Charles, Sam Cooke and every black superstar stayed when they played the Apollo in the glory days. A dignified subway ride on the A-train took us back to midtown. A highly recommended tour to anyone who digs black music.

This tour was great! It provides a great opportunity to walk through the streets of Harlem, all while getting informed on old school hip-hop culture and history. I highly recommend it.

Not only our children enjoyed the walk very much, even my wife and myself were very amused about the enthusiastic way our guide explained the early days of the Hip-Hop movement. It was a very enjoyable (and safe) way to get to know Harlem a little bit better as well.

Excellent tour with a proper history of hip hop.

The tour was excellent. A faultless history lesson in New York history expertly and enthusiastically told by the legendary Grandmaster Caz sticking to the facts and telling it like it was. Slightly marred by the initial choice of music (nobody want to hear Puff Daddy/P-Diddy/Diddy or LL Cool J past his prime - sticking to the better, non-commercial stuff would have been a far better choice) and the selling of bootleg CDs at the end (especially as this happened directly after Grandmaster Caz's tale of getting denied royalties from Rapper's Delight - a touch hypocritical if you ask me). These minor gripes aside, this is highly recommended especaially if Grandmaster Caz is your guide on the day.

Caz manifests the true roots & culture of Hip-Hop.

First off I want to thank Hush Tours (Sorry can't remember the helpful lady's name) for giving us a meeting point when our flight was delayed and we were half an hour late. Met the crew at 106 & Park where we walked around this school yard with all this sick graffiti including the "Graffiti Wall of Fame". From there we stopped at multiple historic spots. One being Rucker Park where Mighty Mouse B-Boy master gave us a dose of some NY b-boyin'. Which included a challenge from one of our fellow tour crew which was coo. Even though I may of knew a lot of the history already it was sick to see all the original birth places. Not to mention having Caz as a MC the whole time, #$%!ing sick! MC Delight was jokes " Who put this thing together? Me that's who!" a must see live. My fav moment had to be getting a pic of me and Caz in front of the birth place of Hip-Hop and now a landmark 1520 Sedgwick Ave. Strictly Unforgettable!

This tour was much more that I expected....I am a local dj out of Texas that has some knowledge of "Old School" Hip Hop but not a lot since I cater to a different style of Music (Tejano)....This was an extremely educational tour...I learned so much from this expierence....I would highly recommend this tour for everyone...I took my wife and daughter with me and they had a good time also.....The only draw back if you can say this to be a draw back was that we had to eat our lunch on the bus since we were running short on time....To me this was the highlight of my visit to New York!!!!!!!

A guided tour of hip hop landmarks in the city where it all began and guided by hip hop LEGENDS no less! You can't go wrong, people. My friends and I were fortunate to have the pleasure of Reggie Reg and the one and only Kurtis Blow. These two cats guided us through the rich history of old school hip hop while asking us to take in scenery that is legendary. If you know your hip hop, you know pretty much every story these guys will tell, but to hear it from people who helped create hip hop is a wholly different experience. Plus, one of my friends kinda tagged along and wasn't so much into the history of hip hop, but he was really positively surprised and learned a thing or two. Both Blow and Reg are elder hip hop statesmen and act as such. Plenty of smiles and no bad vibes whatsoever. You will not regret it!
