Reflections on hip-hop pioneer Mr. Magic

Last week, in acknowledgement of his 61st physical day anniversary, the hip-hop community paid due respect to one of the urban culture’s most influential pioneers, Mr. Magic. His partner, DJ Marley Marl, paid tribute to him during his “Marley Marl Noon Mix Show” Wednesday and again Friday during his “Golden Era” radio program (8 p.m.-10 p.m.), both on 107.5 WBLS FM.
Born in the Bronx March 15, 1956, John Rivas, aka Mr. Magic, became the first DJ on commercial radio to have an exclusive hip-hop music radio show with his “Rap Attack” program, featuring DJ Marley Marl and co-producer Fly Ty, on WHBI 96.3 FM in 1981. This time was at the dawn of hip-hop music, during the era when disco, funk and soul music dominated Black radio, and virtually no rap music was played over commercial air waves.
“Hangin’ posters on my wall, every Saturday, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl”—Biggie Smalls in his 1994 hit single, “Juicy”
In July 1982, “Rap Attack” premiered on WBLS 107.5 FM, beaming hip-hop music, which was then primarily heard at local house parties, in city clubs, on college radio and on cassette tapes of classic live park battles, straight into millions of people’s homes and cars, each Friday and Saturday night from 9 p.m. to midnight.
“Mr. Magic is the Frankie Crocker of hip-hop,” contends music producer Witch Doctor, who crafted the tracks for Masta Ace’s 1991 single “Jeep A$$ N!&&@” and Biggie Smalls’ original “One More Chance.”
“Mr. Magic’s Rap Attack” helped validate hip-hop music, which many at the time considered to be just a fad. Magic and Marley broke countless acts on their show, launching many careers. Some recall legendary freestyle features by previously unknown artists who soon thereafter became household names.
For example, in 1984 while riding the Staten Island Ferry, he discovered the Force M.D.’s, expressing their unique blend of doo wop, hip-hop, harmonizing soul. He brought them up to his show to display their skills and shortly thereafter they were signed to Tommy Boy Records.
Also that year he recorded the inspirational “Magic’s Message (There’s a Better Way),” his only record as an artist.
Throughout the next several years Mr. Magic and Marley Marl assembled one of the most respected crews of hip-hop artists ever, known as the Juice Crew, featuring MC Shan, TJ Swan, Biz Markie, Kool G Rap & DJ Polo, Masta Ace, Roxanne Shante, Big Daddy Kane, Craig G and Tragedy. This assortment of artistic talent upped the ante for all other aspiring artists as they lay the foundation for what eventually became known as hip-hop’s Golden Era.
It was Mr. Magic’s denial of a then unknown KRS-One’s inclusion into the Juice Crew that sparked one of hip-hop’s most competitive and popular rivalries, known as the legendary Bridge Wars. KRS was later backed by Kool DJ Red Alert at the competing 98.7 KISS FM radio station. The spirited artistic battles helped bring more attention to the fledging hip-hop generation, while also serving to display its diversity.
Many recall how Sir Juice, as he was also known, contributed immensely to hip-hop slang by popularizing phrases from the concrete jungle. For example, naming local ‘hoods over the air waves by what they’re called in the streets: Money Makin’ Manhattan, the Boogie Down Bronx, Do or Die Bed-Stuy, Brownsville-never ran, never will, etc.
“I gotta have it, I miss Mr. Magic”—Nas in his 1992 single “Half Time”
In 1988, after firmly establishing hip-hop music over NYC’s airwaves for six very influential years, Mr. Magic went on hiatus, only to return on the recently switched format Hot 97 FM in the early 1990s with his new program, “The Classic Showcase.”
In his 1995 track “Old School,” Tupac Shakur shouted Mr. Magic out.
In 2002, Mr. Magic’s distinctive voice was heard in “Grand Theft Auto: Vice City” on one of the in-game radio stations.
Just as Magic and Marley were planning to reunite and treat the current generation of hip-hoppers to their taste of Golden Era caliber music on Power 105 FM, Mr. Magic transitioned onto the ancestral realm the morning of Oct. 2, 2009, after suffering a heart attack at 53 years of age.
“Persistence always overcome resistance!” were Mr. Magic’s inspirational words as he concluded his shows.

Reviews for "Unveiling the Messages of Abundance: A Guide to Magggical Messages Oracle Cards"
1. Sarah - 2/5
I was not a fan of the "Magggical Messages from the Fairies Oracle Cards". The artwork on the cards was cute, but the messages themselves felt shallow and lacking in depth. I was expecting more insightful and meaningful guidance, but instead, it felt like generic fortune cookie advice. The card explanations were also quite vague and didn't provide much clarity. Overall, I was disappointed with this deck and wouldn't recommend it to others seeking deeper spiritual guidance.
2. Mark - 1/5
I have to say that I found the "Magggical Messages from the Fairies Oracle Cards" to be quite underwhelming. The artwork was overly cute and whimsical, which didn't resonate with me at all. Additionally, I found the card messages to be overly simplistic and not thought-provoking. It felt like a deck designed for children rather than adults seeking spiritual guidance. I wish I had chosen a different oracle card deck, as this one did not meet my expectations at all.

In terms of the messages themselves, they felt repetitive and lacked depth. Many of the cards seemed to convey similar ideas, making it harder to gain unique insights. The guidebook that came with the cards also felt lacking in substance. Overall, this deck did not capture my interest or provide the spiritual guidance I was hoping for.
