the legend says that the origin of the 4th position was to avoid feedback while using this in combination with a high power reggae sounsystem in jamaica in the 1970's, and that some rappers took it over because they thought it looks cool.

If it's true i don't know, but i do know that that trick works, i did it myself in such a situation while i was a dj, otherwise the mic was not usable because of the feedback loop. But off course you block a lot of the sound of your voice also.
The ultimate 5th position, not showed at the picture, is the head of the mic inside the mouth :)
