How a Stroke Turned a 63-Year-Old Into a Rap Legend
Pooka Offer Upgrade User ID: 36721404 United States 01/16/2019 04:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation	How a Stroke Turned a 63-Year-Old Into a Rap Legend The man, a brilliant doctor, had a stroke, and it changed his life to rapping. “I started to have a stroke,” he rapped. “Went broke.” The room fell silent. “I started to think and speak in rhyme. I can do it all the time. And I want to get to do the rap, and I won’t take any more of this crap.” The crowd erupted. A few days later, the rap icon arrived at Hershfield’s office. KRS-One gave the doctor a signed copy of his book, The Science of Rap. He too was fascinated with neurology, he said: “I was already talking about the concept of how rapping synthesizes those two hemispheres of the brain,” KRS-One told me. He asked Hershfield if he’d like to be part of an experiment, and offered him rap lessons. “When you’re trying to teach someone to rap, you ask them to sing along with a song they might have heard,” KRS-One told me. He hit play on Rapper’s Delight by the Sugar Hill Gang. The song began: “I said a hip-hop / Hippie to the hippie / The hip, hip a hop, and you don’t stop ...” Then he pressed rewind and encouraged Hershfield to give it a try. “He nailed it,” said KRS-One.

This is because the hand that gives is above the hand that takes. Financiers are without patriotism and without decency.” If you're not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at forty you have no brain. Winston Churchill
