EP #411 SUGARHILL GANG - MASTER GEE

THE VIBE with Kelly Cardenas presents SUGARHILL GANG - MASTER GEE O'Brien grew up in Teaneck, New Jersey, where at an early age he was exposed to a steady stream of doo wop and rhythm and blues, and established himself as an energetic emcee in the pioneering Phase 2 hip-hop crew.[1] During the early infancy of the commercial hip-hop movement in 1979, Master Gee, Big Bank Hank and Wonder Mike were discovered by producer Sylvia Robinson[2] and brought together to form The Sugarhill Gang.[3] O'Brien stepped away from Sugar Hill Records in 1984, and established himself as a successful entrepreneur in the magazine industry. During the group's departure from the label, Joey Robinson Jr., son of Sugar Hill producer Sylvia Robinson, used the stage name Master Gee. O'Brien and Wonder Mike went to court over the use of the group's name and stage names[4] as documented in the film, I Want My Name Back.[5] In 2014, name usage was amicably resolved, and Master Gee has since re-emerged as a mainstay in the hip hop community and music industry. 📚 BESTSELLING BOOK “THE VIBE” 📚 Uncover the key to success in Kelly Cardenas's bestselling book, "The Vibe - the missing ingredient that changes everything."
