First coming on the scene in 1977, New York-based MC Busy Bee has worked with many of hip-hop's founding fathers, including <a href="spotify:artist:0AWhixY9hX7LEPyPMjh4O0">Melle Mel</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:7cg61q8kK8jlFi8TKKw70p">Afrika Bambaataa</a>, and Kool DJ AJ to name a few. Mostly known for his comedic rhymes, Busy originally gained a large following through MC battles in Staten Island, Brooklyn, and New Jersey (he won the New Music Seminar's MC World Supremacy Belt in 1986). In the early '80s <a href="spotify:artist:7cg61q8kK8jlFi8TKKw70p">Afrika Bambaataa</a> asked Busy to join his Zulu Nation, where the young MC would DJ for <a href="spotify:artist:7cg61q8kK8jlFi8TKKw70p">Bambaataa</a>'s Zulu Nation parties. In 1982 Busy also appeared in the classic hip-hop film Wild Style, playing none other than an MC. In addition to his DJ work with other artists, Busy has also released his own albums on the Brass, Sugarhill, and Strong City labels. ~ Steve Kurutz, Rovi
