The Hevalo was DJ Kool Herc's first established club (formerly named Soulsville). Initially, he was chased off for distributing flyers outside the club. He vowed they'd come asking him to play, and they did. He performed at the club in '75-'76 bringing his own sound system, which he called the Herculords.

Clive Campbell known as Kool Herc or DJ Kool Herc, was called Hercules on the basketball courts, due to his height and stature. Once he joined the Ex-Vandals graffiti crew he took on the nickname Kool Herc.
