Hip Hop Snapshots - Silvia Robinson - The Queenpin

  • Resumen

  • Before hip-hop had a name, Silvia Robinson had a vision. In this episode of Hip-Hop Snapshots, Ross Martinez spotlights the woman who helped bring rap from block parties to Billboard. From chart-topping hits in the '50s to founding Sugarhill Records in her living room, Silvia turned instinct into impact—producing the genre’s first commercial hit and pushing artists to tell the truth with tracks like “The Message.” But behind the success came controversy: contracts, power struggles, and the cost of being first. This is the story of hip-hop’s most overlooked architect—the Mother of the Business.
