Polish hip hop
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
The Polish hip hop scene began in 1990, when American pop-rappers like MC Hammer ("Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em") and Vanilla Ice ("To the Extreme") were popular. The first album by a Polish performer was "East on the Mic" by PM Cool Lee, which featured two songs in the Polish language. Lee was from Kielce, but Warsaw soon emerged as a center for hip hop, after KOLOR, a radio station, began broadcasting Kolor Shock, hosted by Bogna Świštkowska and DJ Volt, whose crew, IKHZ, became perfoming stars in their own right in 1995. Volt also founded the first Polish independent hip hop label, Beat Records. Though the label didn't last long, it did introduce groups like Trzyha and Molesta. In Poznan, PH Kopalnia's Polski Rap - Zakazane Piosenki (Polish rap - Forbidden Songs).
Now known as Liroy, the former PM Cool Lee released Albóóm in 1995, which included the hit "Scyzoryk".
