I am so thankful for Herc and all of the others people that gave birth to my favorite genre of music. :-)

        Nice! I'm more partial to Charles Oakley and Anthony Mason. :-) -- nm - Krusty Aug 11, 07:36
What ever happened to Coco, Cindy C, Klark K and Timmy T, though?!? -- nm - JaxSean Aug 11, 06:55 1
- Cindy C is Cindy Campbell, the sister of Herc, and she had a nice career in hip hop and with non-profit work. -- nm* - Krusty Aug 11, 07:17
