In the early 1970s, the term MC (also spelled 'Emcee') became associated with what would eventually become known as the Rapper in Hip-hop Music and Culture. Originally, the term was simply used as Master of Ceremonies. Traditionally, an MC uses rhyming verses, whether pre-written or freestyled, to introduce and praise the DJ he or she works with, to hype up the crowd. As Hip-hop progressed, the title MC has been thought to mean a number of an acronyms such as Microphone Controller, Mike Checka, Music Commentator, and one who Moves the Crowd.

Born Stanley Kirk Burrell , he picked up his stage moniker from A's players who noticed his resemblance to home-run king Hammerin' Hank Aaron (the MC , added later, stands for Master of Ceremonies , rapspeak for band leader )
