In true Afrikan languages, there is no existense of the letter "C". So for someone like Afrika Bambaataa, spelling with a letter "K" would symbolize the freedom and self aware that is part of Hip Hop since Bambaataa feels the ancestor roots of Hip Hop is from the continent of Afrika. Instead of using the letter "C" which symbolize more of the western culture, it would be better to use the original alphabet of the Afrikan languages which is the letter "K". Also, its known that the letter "K" is used as a protest against Western Culture domination.
I don't follow this same path but I fully overstand why it is spell it that way, and fully respect it. Basically if you're aware then its all good cuz you not gonna go to hell or be label as a non hiphop head if you spell it with a "C". To me thats like saying you have to wear foam caps or gazel to be a bboy....that wouldn't be right... However, people should be fully aware why it is spelled that way for some especially those that are Afrikan descent, and respect their ways.
