This rap song dates back to the dawn of hip-hop and was written approximately 1982-3. At the time I was the building security coordinator and dean of Samuel Gompers Vocational Technical High School in the South Bronx. Many early hip hop artists and graffiti writers came from Gompers. For example, the first scratching was done at Gompers by the pioneer DJ Grandmaster Flash who modified a turntable for that purpose in an electronics shop class. I was the youngest and fittest of the three deans and spent most of the day patrolling the hallways.
