A buddy of mine back in the early nineties ended up laying carpet with one of the Sugar Hill Gang (I don’t remember which one). I said to my friend, “Why is he laying carpet? He has to be doing well from the royalties.” My friend said Ms. Sylvia made all of the money and the rappers made nothing. He said the rappers were pretty bitter over it.
