The Radio Boys (Kev Lawrence, C.Truth) salutes pioneer Kangol Kid of UTFO aka Mr. First. Kangol visited live in studio and class was in session. He discussed a variety of topics including: how UTFO came together, dancing for Whodini on the Fresh Fest tour, being the first break dancers to appear on a national talk show (The Phil Donahue show), the importance of pleasing a crowd, being the first rap artist with a product endorsement, writing for Lisa Lisa & Cheryl Pepsi Riley, working with Full Force, having 3 sons in the business, opening up for Hall & Oates, David Ruffin, Eddie Kendricks; paving the way for Wyclef as the first Haitian American in hip hop, and getting high praise from magician David Blaine. If that wasn’t enough he also speaks on the Roxanne craze that spurred over 25 response records, being the first rap group to perform at the Apollo theatre, and how a portion of the movie Krush Groove was based upon the UTFO experience. This is a must listen multiple times. Give your ears some entertainment. Then log on to: www.thermalsoundwaves.com for what's to come in the future. Peace!
