RareHipHop.com mourns the passing of Hip Hop pioneer Lovebug Starski who suddenly passed away in Las Vegas on Thursday (February 8), he was 57.

The Bronx native was born in 1960 and was one of Hip Hop’s earliest MCs. He’s also one of two people who is credited for coining the phrase “Hip Hop.” In 1978, he became a DJ at the Disco Fever Club and released several singles as Little Starsky, including 1979’s “Gangster Rock” and 1981’s “Dancin’ Party People.”

The legend blessed us with some of his classics which will carry on in Hip-Hop history.
