Herbie Hancock was an Innovative jazz pianist. But this song was so big, it really presented scratching to the world in a big way and it was such a huge dance club hit. And also this video was on heavy rotation on MTV.

The track was driven by its deejay scratch style, performed primarily by DXT, and its music video created by Godley & Creme, which was put in high rotation on MTV. "Rockit" won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Instrumental Performance in 1983, and it won five MTV Video Music Awards in 1984.

This song was so ahead of its time. Herbie Handcock is an 80's legend! This song is from the summer of 1983 (I was going to 8th grade). It was the beginning of breakdancing and has been in several movies. It's not creepy; it's legendary. This song was way ahead of it's time for 1983. I miss being a teenager so much when you react to 80s songs!!!!

[horton]

Herbie Hancock is just one guy. His genre was jazz and jazz funk as I’m sure there were others I was first introduced to his song chameleon on his album headhunters

[robhtp]

I was 13yrs old, living Los Angeles, when this song hit the scene, we use to poplock and break dance to this jam. Good times 😎

[quato]

Those robots are used to long term test wear and tear on clothes xD
This track is Herbie's reaction to the developing break dance culture in the late 70s/early 80sCertainly no deep message intended =D

[wompa]

1983. I've said it before, 80s music was fantastic because you could take chances, do just about anything. Besides Herby being a freaking genius.

[lusciousmayweather]

This was one of the Best Songs to Breakdance to back in the day.

[jabronidave]

Herbie is brilliant. He combined so many things, some may have been the first. Auto tune, sampling, scratching, jazz pianist, that’s him and his hands playing. I instantly became a fan, bought the whole album. The guy is fantastic. Oh, and you’re overthinking it
❤️❤️

[stevenmonte]

Herbie Hancock - Possibilities is a phenomenal book about his life. He is a LEGEND!!

[hongfang]

Herbie became famous playing piano in the Miles Davis band of the early 1960s. He then launched a solo career.

[darrygswa]

Herbie Hancock said he wasn't responsible making of this video. I think he won a Grammy for this song.

"visually I'm over stimulated". -- Brit Reacts

Great line.

[seanslaughter]

Some of the first all electronic music. Mr Hancock, besides being a jazz maestro, he was also a trendsetter! A legend!

[jamiemacdonald]

Yes, Janet's song samples Rockit. And yeah, this video has always been creepy AF. I loved it when it first came out on MTV.

[farfromperfek]

Herbie was well established as a world class Jazz pianist before he wrote this in 1983. Btw 13 years before Autotune started to ruin music.

[trespire]

Herbie Hancock is a jazz musician, and had no idea about this video.
The rest is history !

[joeluv]

This was one of the main songs whenever there was a POP LOCK Bsttle on the Dance floor.

[coyte]

He is a long established jazz pianist, including working in Miles Davis band introducing electronic instruments in jazz. He then decided to invent electronic dance music. all that and he still plays classic, acoustic jazz.

[dudeusmaximus]

The only video that ever creeped me out and still does to this day. All hail Herbie Hancock.

[robertamigliore]

Good morning Britt,
Man that took me back to the 80s in the old MTV days I played that all the time. And yes, there were parts of it. They were very creepy.😂
