Real Name: Kurtis Walker.

As the first commercially successful rap artist, Kurtis Blow is a towering figure in hip-hop history. Popular and charismatic, he was the first rapper to sign with (and release an album for) a major label; the first to have a single certified gold (1980's landmark The Breaks); the first to embark on a national (and international) concert tour; and the first to cement rap's mainstream marketability by signing an endorsement deal. For that matter, he was really the first significant solo rapper on record. For all his immense importance and influence, many of Blow's records haven't dated all that well.

Kurtis Blow was born Kurtis Walker in Harlem in 1959. He began to immerse himself in the newborn hip-hop culture in the early '70s : breakdance, block-party and club DJ performing (as Kool DJ Kurt)... After enrolling at City College of New York in 1976, he also served as program director for the college radio station. He became an MC in his own right around 1977, and changed his name to Kurtis Blow (as in a body blow) at the suggestion of his manager, future Def Jam founder and rap mogul Russell Simmons. Blow performed with legendary DJs like Grandmaster Flash, and for a time his regular DJ was Simmons' teenage brother Joseph or Joey (who, after changing his stage name from "Son of Kurtis Blow," would later become the first half of Run-D.M.C). Over 1977-1978, Blow's club gigs around Harlem and the Bronx made him an underground sensation, and Billboard magazine writer Robert Ford approached Simmons about making a record. Blow recorded a single co-written by Rocky Ford and J.B. Moore called Christmas Rappin'. It was a hit and it helped him get a contract with Mercury.

Blow's second single, The Breaks, was an out-of-the-box smash, entering the Top Five of the R&B charts in 1980 and eventually going gold. It is still considered as one of old school rap's greatest and most enduring moments. The full-length album Kurtis Blow was also released in 1980, and made the R&B Top Ten in spite of many assumptions that the Sugarhill Gang's success was a one-time fluke. Although the album's attempts at soul crooning and rock covers haven't dated well, the poverty-themed Hard Times marked perhaps the first instance of hip-hop's social consciousness, and was later covered by Run-D.M.C. Blow initially found it hard to follow up The Breaks, despite releasing nearly an album a year for most of the '80s. 1981's Deuce and 1982's Tough weren't huge sellers, and 1983's Party Time EP brought D.C. go-go funksters E.U. on board for a stylistic update. However, things picked up in 1984 with the release of the Ego Trip album, which featured the single Basketball. Around this time, Blow was also making his mark as a producer, working with a variety of hip-hop and R&B artists. Ego Trip sold respectably well on the strength of cuts like the DJ tribute AJ Scratch and the Run-D.M.C. duet 8 Million Stories. Blow followed it with an appearance in the cult hip-hop film Krush Groove, in which he performed If I Ruled the World, his biggest hit since The Breaks.
