THE PLAYERS
MC G.L.O.B.E. (Soul Sonic Force), author of Hip Hop classics such as Planet Rock, Looking for the Perfect Beat, and Renegades of Funk (to name but a few), is an originally 70s B-boy and part of the first generation of Hip Hop royalty. G.L.O.B.E. is the creator of the ‘MC Popin’ rhyme style, and was inducted into the Universal Hip Hop Museum in 2021.

MC Sha-Rock (Funky Four Plus One), is ‘THE’ first female MC. The ‘Funky Four Plus One’ were the first Rap act to perform on national television in the U.S., following a request from Debbie Harry of Blondie for them to perform on the hit T.V. show, Saturday Night Live, back in 1980.

The D22 Turntable Quartet (hailing from the Dublin suburb of Clondalkin, as the name suggests) are made up of former World Scratch Champion - DJ Flip, and 80s battle DJs, Cutmaster Jay, DJ Control, and Dj Laz-e, who also pioneered Irelands B-boy scene as far back as 1982.

“It was imperative that I got the old gang back together for this one. These guys were killing it on the wheels of steel back in 1986, before Hip Hop was even getting played on mainstream Irish radio. They were so talented, and years ahead of their time. To have them perform on the record is a dream come true. Honestly.
Funny thing… it had been thirty years since Cutmaster Jay had even touched a turntable, so he had to get that muscle memory back. I loaned him a mixer and turntable, and a few records to practice on. Within a couple of days, he was back in business.”

DJ Control sadly passed away in August 2023, following a short illness. He was an amazing DJ and friend, and a dedicated family man. His genius will live on through his art.
