The World’s Famous Supreme Team are true pioneers of hip hop!

The “World’s Famous Supreme Team” origina­ted in 1979 in New York, when Sedivine the Mastermind (Divine) founder of the “World’s Famous Supreme Team”, and Just Allah the Superstar (Justice), took on rhyming to the beat, known as rapping. It was taking the me­dia by storm, and was taking no shorts! From that day on the “World’s Famous Supreme Team” was making hip hop history. The late 70′s and early 80′s was indeed the hip hop era.

The WFST hosted and Deejayed the best of the parties … and soon landed a spot on WHBI 105.9 FM, in New York. The one-hour show was named after them, the World’s Famous Supreme Team Show.

It made quite a bit of noise, so much in fact, that it caught the attention of Malcolm Mcla­ren in London, England. They first met at the Park Meridian hotel, they sat down for steak and eggs and got to know each other and talked business. Malcolm liked the show and wanted to do a record with them.

The combination of Deejaying and rapping – hip hop led to their first recording, Buffa­lo Gals. It was a collaboration with Malcolm Mclaren and coincidentally a group called The Art of Noise! Buffalo Gals was produced and recorded by Trevor Horn, Ann Dudley and Gary Lan­gan (AON) in London, England. Throughout the 1980′s and mid 1990′s, “Buffalo Gals”, “She’s Looking Like a Hobo , “D’ya like Scratchin’?, and “World’s Fa­mous” were amongst other hits released on Charisma Records, Polygram Records, and Is­land Records in 1982, 1983 and 1984.

The World’s Famous Supreme Team began to travel, and during a stay in London, they taught the young how to mix and scratch. A Hip Hop Original and Best EP Sampler was released at the same time with the World’s Famous Supreme Team, Rock Steady Crew and Malcolm Mcla­ren on Jugoton and Charisma Records in 1984.

Then the World’s Famous Supreme Team re­leased their own debut single, “Hey DJ”, sung by Ah’yae – the Hey DJ Gal from the old days, which became an infamous hit, and reaching 10 on the Billboard Charts. Hey DJ was re­leased on Charisma/Virgin Records in Eng­land, and then later released on Island Re­cords in the U.S. The track was produced by Stephen Hague and Walter Turbitt in 1984.

This classic was sampled by Both P Diddy and Jermaine Dupri with Mariah Carey on the track entitled “Honey”, De La Soul, Warren G and Az, amongst others over the past 23 years. Then the debut album “Rappin’” was released in 1986 with other hits, like “Radio Man”, “City Lify” and “Mysery”, produced by Bradshaw Leigh and arranged by Clifton Chase, recorded at A & R Recording, Chelsea Sound Studios, Giant Sound Studios, Soundworks, New York, NY, Mixed at Giant Sound Studios, Right Track Recording, Sigma Studios, New York, NY – released on both Charisma/Virgin and Island Records.

A Compilation album called: “Buffalo Gals – Back to Skool” was released in 1998 with artists, KRS – One, De La Soul, Rakim, Soulson and others on Virgin Records and pro­duced by Henri Scars Struck. This brilliant Compilation album was made by the New York hip-hop community in dedication to the pioneers that made it possible. Including the seminal recordings made by Malcolm McLaren and The World’s Famous Supreme Team along with clips from the legendary radio show WHBI, 105.9 FM.
