? I didn't know rap was around in 1977.

A lot of rappers trace their interest in the genre to The Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight," which was released in 1979.

I remember buying the 12 inch 45 of "Rappers Delight". It's really amazing how much the lyrics have changed. Today it's about b*tches and h*s and putting a cap in somebody's a**.
Back then it was about being a dinner guest and worrying about hurting the hosts feelings when the food isn't any good.

Times have changed.
