Iz the Wiz: Legendary All-City Bomber Passes at 50
Q Ball
Q Ball is a South Florida inner city native who has embraced Hip Hop culture ever since He first heard "Rapper's Delight" in 1979. His journey to live the culture was enhanced during the massive relocation boom of New Yorkers throughout the 80s which gave South Florida the nickname, "The 6th Borough." His enthusiasm lead him into the skills of Lyricism, Graff Writing, and Track Producing and now writes for Old School Scholar.
I will not go into details about the news because there is already enough written by those close to him on other sites. What I will do is provide links to credible sites who have the scoop and history on the notorious All-City King and Master Blaster of the throw up pieces. I will also post some videos for more insight on the legend of Iz the Wiz.
We need to learn more from the old school pioneers because they are our true natural resources to maintain and uphold the Hip Hop culture. They are our wealth of cultural history.
Thank you, Iz the Wiz, for burning up the lines and helping establish the culture as the original Master Blaster. Peace.
