"Rapper's Delight" is credited for introducing hip hop music to a wide audience, reaching the top 40 in the United States, as well as the top three in the United Kingdom and number-one in Canada.
@Penderyn it's supposed to be like a cypher.
First rap song I ever heard. Second song with rap was Rapture by Blondie.
@Penderyn so you need a half decent attention span and vocabulary and that's a ''problem''? I'll take it over 3 minutes of mumbling, sexist homophobic nonsense about how gay people are bad and women are property but guns and drugs are something to aspire to any day of the week.
I think you should listen to grandmaster flash and furious five for early rap with the message and white lines
White lines is better social criticism of drugs
This is when rap was fun, and in my personal opinion the best.There's a video of them performing this on SOUL TRAIN. Btw, the music is originally from the song GOOD TIMES by CHIC.
Chic got inspiration for Good Times from the song "Hollywood Swinging" by Kool & The Gang.
The Clash's song "The Magnificent Seven" also drew inspiration from Chic's good times.
@@volatilemolotov2298 not true…not true at all. th-cam.com/video/_h57eZGKg8I/w-d-xo.html
Yep, from back when they could use an entire musical track, add their own vocals and call it brand new lol Im not sure if they got the go from Chic or not but anyway … a lot of rap back then was like this. Such fun and groovy music!
Good times by chic I love this song, I love the TV show Good times awesome. I remember running to the TV saying Soul train is about to start.
a lot of stuff from MF DOOM is really fun. Check it out.
The first hip hop / rap song I ever heard. Was a teen at my buddy’s house when we put that 12inch on the turntable in late ‘78. Fun facts: Deborah Harry of Blondie introduced Chic to these guys at NY underground parties playing “new music” of the times. Sugar Hill Gang had to pull this song off the air because the copyright infringed one of Chic’s songs. They later re released it in 1979 crediting Chic on the record with a new label. That original pressing should be worth something now….
Chic's song was "Good Times". And awesome baseline by Bernard Edwards, with Nile Rogers on guitar.
@@ffjsb thx. That’s right. I couldn’t remember offhand and was too lazy to look up.
both labels , with and with out chic on credit, were released in 79' and sadly the original (reds) with out credit are fairly cheap like $10
Teach that music history! Love it; the best of times.
It was Grace Jones not Deborah Harry…th-cam.com/video/_h57eZGKg8I/w-d-xo.html
😂"This song smells like a lot of cologne" is one of the most accurate things Lex has ever said!
Yeah, smells like Jovan musk oil.😄 If you were around then you know what I mean.
@@craigdoriety9798 You already know playboy. Bruit 33 oooow
Yes Lex, probably
Polo cologne 😄
Smells like the old ass whole Pierre Cardan gift set
@@Idontlikethatshit. and brown liquorIIIIII
For the younger ones who don't know this song. No mater if you like it or not it's a very Important song historically.
First hip hop song to reach the Billboard top 40.
Made it bigger in Europe than USA on it's debut. Everyone in UK knew this song in 1980. Even a lot of the Grandmas.
I still crack up seeing and hearing the scene in "The wedding singer" movie, when the old lady (late actress Ellen Albertini Dow) got on the mic and did her version of "Rapper's delight" by Sugarhill Gang 🤣👍
Classic scene!
Best!
Some one hit wonder band in 2002 had a hit with the ketchup song where they tried copying the first couple of lines of the song.
Agree! But if you like that scene, you will also like this th-cam.com/video/NvsHncs_LUI/w-d-xo.html
still puts you in the mood to dance decades later..
best group ever
You guys have to do Grandmaster Flash - 'White Lines' and 'The Message.' They really pioneered the whole thing.
Definitely
Agreed. I'd also recommend Black Machine's 'How Gee' if they haven't heard it.
I'd add Beat Street Breakdown by Grandmaster Melle Mel. Some of the best bars ever, still to this day.
Doug E Fresh...The Show
Wish I could like this comment twice
This song originated the word "hip hop". The line, "hip hop hibby to the ...." Nobody called music hip hop before them even though this was the first rap song out there. What's wierd is those of us who were around when this song came out, still know ALL the words!! My husband hates when I pull this sing out because he gets an earworm for days from it. Great song!!! Brings back great memories.
That is not correct, the term origin is credited to Kieth Cowboy from Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five. This song was the first song to go main stream with radio play but far from the first rap song. Most people in the Hip Hop community hated this song when it came out.
The first rap song I heard on the radio was in the 70s Gill Scott Herron The Revolution Will Not be Televised..and Whitey on the Moon
A lot of the bars from Big Bank Hank were taken from Granmaster Caz of the Cold Crush Brothers & the scat Hip Hop Hibbbity was taken from Luv Bug Starski. People thought the Sugar Hull Gang didn’t put in the work & were fake.
Thank you for pointing out that this song originated the term "hip hop," keeping this out of the digital "memory hole." Y'all keepers of the flame.
@@RenR70 True, because Rap started in New York, and Sugar Hill are from New Jersey. Flash and the 5 make a reference to this in either the Message, or New York, New York. I'm from Chicago so it really doesn't matter to me. I love the Old School, and I'm glad to have been a part of it.
What makes me smile is seeing how this tune still holds to this day. Watching you guys smiling and bobbing your heads reminds me how timeless this tune is.
This was “skating rink” solid gold! Everybody out there movin and groovin to Sugar Hill Gang! Ask your momma, Lex!
Every skating rink across the country rocked this tune over & over back when this tune broke out in 79'! It was cool watching people dancing and grooving to this while roller skating?
YES! When they first released this song, the Sugar Hill Gang performed it at my Roller Rink in Bklyn to promote it; will never forget that day.
@@jacqueline4514 wow, that's very cool! I grew up in Philly & the several rinks we went to were so much fun back in the day. I wish my kids could experience all the fun things we did, which we all took for granted not realizing how lucky we were to grow up then?
@@patches6309 You are so right, RJ; I'm consciously thankful of when and where I grew up all the time. Unfortunately, the kids today don't have many healthy outlets and are bombarded with media and technology; it's sad.
@@patches6309 Daytona Beach, Starlite Skate Center - every Saturday was a blast - you are def correct, we had no idea how lucky we were.
80s kids TRY to claim this song for the 80s All the time, But its in the record book For the 70s , I danced to this song in the summer and fall of 1979 , With Many millions of other people ALL OVER THE WORLD In 1979 ,,,
This is back when you could actually sample good music and rhyme over it. Nothin like old school hip hop
Facts
It wasn't sampled from "Good Times" by Chic, Nile Rogers and Bernard Edwards wouldn't let them, so a 17 year old Chip Shearin played on Rapper's Delight.
That bassline is just too much. It is so utterly perfect and is better utilized in this track than in the original (Good Times) imo
I used to rock this on vinyl when I was a kid in the 80’s. Even today, you’re hard pressed to find a rap song that’ll move your body like this one.
You were a Kid in 1979 To lol This came out in Aug of 1979 RELEASED as a single, Im A 70s Brat thats why i know this lol The world was at a stand still LOL Then The Dance floors were packed BIG TIME In the summer and fall of 1979
LEX ASKS IS THIS HIP HOP LOLOLOLOL JUST THE BIRTH OF HIP HOP Started in 1979
This 70s song is so much fun ,,,,
Eighth Wonder was their best song...
@@theodoreritola7641 im 22 and from eastern europe and i cant stop moving to suga hill!
You guys gotta listen to the long version, you didn’t get to hear the verse about the visit to a friends house to eat 😂🤣😂 This song in its entirety is STILL the best rap song to have ever been thought of!! 👏👏👏😂♥️
Absolutely.. literally missed half the song.. gotta do the 14 minute version 😁
.. the chicken tastes like wood ! :)
Weakest verse, though.
Yes that's the funniest part also how his dad taught him 'never let a MC steal your rhyme'
I definitely was waiting for it then got disappointed 😂😂😂
This was the first Rap song to Chart! The 14 Min Version was played at School Dances and Parties. This version you heard did not include the Lyrics about the Terrible Food. Even if you don't react to the 14 Min version look at the Live version of Rappers delight that is about 7 Mins. Everyone memorized the words to this song. I graduated High School in 1982.
I kept waiting to hear " the chicken tastes like wood" part lol
My first computer handle was Rapper because of this song. I could reliably do about 13 1/2 of the 15-minute version
Exactly the full version is amazing and the best. I grew up in the 80's and loved this song when it came out. Change music forever
That’s my favorite part because my friends mom couldn’t cook for shit. He survived on sandwiches. Lol
This is awesome.
I'm 52, and this was one of my all time favorite songs of my childhood.
Soo cool to see you Guys enjoy it.
This is supposed to be the first rap/hip hop single ever, so that makes it awesome. You gotta love 'em for bringing us such a great new genre of music.
I can't remember if you've reacted to Blondie's "Rapture" but it's also one of the first rap singles. They were the first one that didn't use sampling, whereas Sugarhill Gang uses clips from other songs for some of its beats.
Not quite the first, but the first big hit. Fatback Band had a rap song out a few months before this ("King Tim III"). It's pretty good.
The ONE that started it all including the label of Hip Hop. The skating rink went wild when this one came on.
MY JAM when i would go roller skating....this song was dope
"This song smells like a lot of cologne." Best quote ever. 😆
“Apache” is another classic by Sugarhill especially with the breakdancers!
Jump on it! Advertising pharmaceuticals today :(
Incredable bongo band apache is a hiphop/bboying national anthem
1st Rap song!! Love it. I was in the 7th grade. Oh memories... still know every word. There's a long version too.
I remember the day my little brother came home with the 12" single of this track. It was revolutionary. We loved it. To this day, I can recite a lot of it by heart.
One of the greatest Classic Rap tunes of all-time. So many later artists took influences from this one.
I'm utterly convinced that if you could bottle Lex's infectious smile and personality, there would be no need for Anti Depressants!!
You kind of helped me reconsider a stereotype of mind. The fact that you appreciate Lex and her beautiful smile makes me ashamed to think that I believed any “Southern patriot” would hate Black people. It does my heart good to know that I can’t generalize that way.
How many of us who were kids when this came out still know most of the lyrics?! This starts playing and the words just start flowing out of my mind effortlessly.
I'm 54. This was the best song ever to skate to back in the day ❤❤❤
Staying a live By The Bee Gees And Play that funky music white boy By Wild Cherry WERE HUGE in the 70s Also ,, Dont forget
The birth of hip hop, at least in the public consciousness. It was already happening...but it was almost inaccessible and unknown...until the Sugarhill Gang made it blow up planetwide. Mad props. This IS one of those rare songs that changed the world...it opened doors and made things possible that no one would have guessed. The hip hop acts I loved in the 90s would never have happened without this breakthrough moment.
I played that record over and over again until I knew all the words. Still today, I can rap it with much "delight" 🍭😊
delight 😏
Me, too! We were there, right?
@@reginawilkes5100 Yes!😃
Was lucky enough to see Chic a few years ago - the final song for the show was Good Times, which then turned into Rapper's Delight, and back to Good Times again! An amazing show, and a most insane final 15 minutes :D
The beat they are rapping over is from the group Chic’s monster hit “Good Times”! They did not get permission to use the music and got sued by Chic! However, that did not stop this from becoming one of the first mega rap hits!!❤️❤️
That wasn't all they stole they stole lyrics from Grandmaster Caz sadly many people don't know all of this but Grandmaster Caz does an interview where he even talks about how Hank used his lyrics and didn't change even bother to change the lyrics to hide they stole the lyrics from him.
@@swampwitch6133 that's what I was about to say. I'm glad you mentioned it. A lot of people in the comments don't know this
Yes a nother song from the late 1970s Baby
My introduction to rap back in the 70s. Loved this.
This is considered by many the FIRST RAP SONG that made hip-hop more accessible to all people.
First popular rap song maybe… Not the first by far though.
When this song came on at the disco everybody hit the floor!!!!!💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻. Great Song!!!! And great memories!!!!
This is not just iconic this is one of the pillars that Rap is built on. I have a Sugarhill label box set and I'm sure the full length of this tune on there is about 14 minutes long, could be wrong though. I distinctly remember this rocking the dancefloors here in the UK.
Damn....My old ass still knows every single lyric to this song. I remember when it came out in 1980. I was floored!!!
I had the 12" single of this. It came out when I was in middle school. Whenever it comes on, I can't help myself but rap along. Classic
This was one of my favorites! The skating rink would fill up when this song was played, we all just jammed to it! At 62, still love this and is still on my play list! I love it! 🤣
Since you guys are doing old school "rap", how about doing Grandmaster Flash 'The Message'. Guaranteed you'll love it!!! Keep up the good work!
First #1 Rap/Hiphop this is the beginning of Rap in America the song sampled the Chic hit song GOOD TIMES
Brad's little brother is definitely a welcomed addition. Friendly face and demeanor.
This song and Blondies Rapture introduced Hip Hop to all of us. Love it
You should also give "Jam On It" and " Roxanne, Roxanne" a listen. Early rap was great.
I watched the Roxanne Roxanne film last night. Enjoyed it. She was treated terribly too, a bit like the Sugarhill members.
This song was ground zero for getting the suburban white kids into hip hop, we all knew ever single word, it went together with roller skating on Friday nights.
I don't think I have ever heard this particular version...I really missed the verse about going over to a friend's house to eat...but there were a couple of new verses to make up for it
This 1979 hit was the first rap single to become a top 40 hit on the Billboard Hot 100.
The start of hip hop was 1979 ,Them 70s
This was the short version of that song. This song was the first rap song to be put to vinyl in the U.S. at the time. I was 13 years old and me and my friends knew every word to the extended version which is like 15 min long. Good to see it being reacted to all these years later.
It was a single in the summer of 1979 THE ASS KICKN 70s
Definitely a timeless classic!!! Still enjoy it today as much as I did back then.
Can STILL sing this song! 😊. This song is based on "Chic's" "Good Times" ; you guys should react to some disco! When this song first came out, the Sugar Hill Gang performed this at my Roller Rink in Brooklyn to promote the song; 40 years plus and it STILL sounds good!
It's not really based on Chic's "Good Times". They sampled the bass line from Chic"s Bernard Edwards.
Both huge hits in 1979
This was the first rap/R&B to hit the mainstream. It's come along way since Sugar Hill.
In my opinion this was the very beginning of Rap music, I was in High School when this was released and it was eye opening because this was a whole different style of music,huge props to Sugar hill for being at the very beginning of Rap.
check out 'the revolution will not be televised' by gil scott heron, from 1971
When I use to perform with different bands in clubs etc, people would go crazy when we played this song. Didn't matter if it was a rock, jazz or country venue. We could drag it out for 30 minutes and they'd dance the whole time.
I had this vinyl 33 album which this one song was the ENTIRE album! I was about 10 years old and played it so much- So many MC’s and verses.. but I could sing every bit of it- the song is long, but there are MANY chopped, shortened versions out there- I’ve been put on the spot MANY times at party’s, etc. to rap it- and I did- I would type it and have before, but not today.. the hip hop hippity to the hippity hip hip hoopa , you don’t stop rockin to the bang bang boogie say up jump the boogie to the rthym of the boogity beat- that was the easiest part coming from my mouth.. the rest was just listening to it so damn much I had it auto memorized ! Anyway, obviously a top favorite of mine of ALL rime! 💯💖💙
PS yeah it was a shortened version, believe it or not- last verse starts with “you even went over to a friends house to eat and the food just ain’t no good...?” But anyway, y’all got the jest and beat- great reaction!💖💙✌️
4:16 The Martin episode when him and Gina had 2 of everything and they were dance battling for their stereos lol
This was the first time I heard rap. I lived in Germany and we memorized this. This was also a short version. You need to hear the longer version, really funny stuff. We believed in having fun no matter who you were or what your background was! 😀
This song will never get old to me I was in junior high school a matter fact my last year and this was the song that got played in the cafeteria on a daily base
2:09 "This is Hip Hop, right?"
Well....yah, it's one of the first ever Hip Hop tracks and still grinds better than most today
This came out during the disco era. I'm sure you can notice the dance music they are rapping to. I was a skinny white boy barely in my teens, walking through the suburbs with a giant radio on my shoulder, listening to this song. I thought I was the coolest, my neighbors thought I was nuts. Best years with all kinds of different music breaking out.
To be fully appreciated this needs to be heard blasting from a boombox on a basketball court.
Or somewhere with a boom box and a big piece of cardboard on the ground..
Roller skating in the 80's!! 😍🥰 This is a total throw back!! Love them so much!!! 💗
Roller skating to Rappers delight in the fall of 1979 THE 70s Baby
@@theodoreritola7641 ❤️
Another rap came out the same year that didn't get the same recognition but was still way funky: King Tim III by Fatback. I encourage all fans of 70s and 80s funk to give it a listen!
Will do!
King Tim III was before Rappers Delight
Seeing all three of you smiling and grooving says everything about this tune!
DAMN YOU, LEX! Do you have any idea how hard it just was to not bust out laughing with my wife asleep right behind me and you talking about how "This song smells like a lotta cologne" LMAO!!!
The FIRST mainstream shot in the RAP REVOLUTION!!! I was in junior high. It was popular to memorize the song and rap it walking down the hallways between classes. LOL.
The Message was my first ... Sugarhill Gang, Melle Mel, Scorpio... oh yeah old school please... and since they Blondies Rapture... lets do that next
or Malcolm McLarens Buffalo Gals, Double Dutch
One of best Jam Skating songs of all time
The history behind this song is pretty fascinating, at least what I learned on Drunk History. There was a whole issue with them using Chic's "Good Times" without permission.
Regardless, I was in 8th grade when this came out and had the 12" vinyl and listened on repeat until I learned the entire rap in one evening. I'm guessing my parents probably wanted to put me out of the house before the night was over! LOL
I was a teenager in High School in Germany when this song came out in 1979. During those days, we would walk around carrying a "boombox" with our friends playing the latest big hit. I remember walking with my friends playing Rapper's Delight and passing some other guys walking past us in the opposite direction, who were also carrying a boombox and they were playing the same song - that had never happened before, but this song was so popular for such a long time we could not get enough of it. It was played at every school dance for years. Many people think that this was the first rap song, but a few months prior this release, Fatback release King Tim III, which was also very popular at the time and was played at our school dances. The memories at Hanau High School were some of the best times in my life and this song will forever be part of those memories. Thanks for your reaction. Peace
Takes me back to 5th grade in Zweibrucken.
This was the first rap song I can remember going mainstream….. along with Rapture. This music pulled rap out of the underground
Yes sir. Love that og hip hop.
The bass line was Bernard Edwards from the Chic song Good times. It is the most sampled song ever!
Not even close to being the most sampled but still a great tune.
😆 🤣 She Is Soooo Funny Maaaainnn!(reacting to throwing moms under the bus)..I Luv Ya'll's Channel!!..Keep Me Smiling Ya'll!..😃👍🏿Thanks.
A taste of “Good Times,” “Rapture,” Another One Bites the Dust” … all connected. Happier rap.
And it all started in the 70s YAAAA
First rap song. Before every college game i played in for two years. Sugar Hill is north of Harlem in Wash Hights, I think! Was tough area in late 70s
This is generally considered to be the first rap song, at least the first introduction of it to a wide audience. "Too smooth" is right!
1979!! 🎉🎉 I lived it and danced to it in school 9th grade ! Great times! ❤
Wow, that Bernard Edwards bass line is sweet
This is an ancient song in modern music terms. This is one of the first songs to be labelled as rap.
the music is from a 70's song called " good times' by Chic 1979
This is a history lesson in the golden age of rap… I wanna put on some roller skates..
It didn't matter what your ethnicity was or your color. When this came on you were dancing or rollier skating. This makes your body move. Widely considered the first widely accepted hip hop song in the mainstream. Released in 1979
My roller skating days in the 70’s. 💕
You HAVE to give a listen to the full 14+ minute version! Even if you don't do a video in it, you need to at least listen to it to hear what was missed in this version.
Used to rock my Members Only jacket to the Roller Cave, and we couldn’t wait for all skate when this came on
This song is credited with bringing rap to the masses and in to the main stream.
Basement parties back in the late 70s. YAY!!!
From the days when rap was actually fun and interesting.
Now it’s dark and depressing
What's interesting about this crap?
@@leonardshevlin7260 Interesting musically and rhythmically...not topically.
Interesting because it was different.
@@neilmartin99 Like there aint anything more interesting that's made in this millenium...
Wooo You guys are taking me back!! ❤❤❤ We would go to the roller skating Rink and to the dance clubs!!! SO FUN!!!🤩
This is the origin of modern day rap, so pleased you finally got around to it.
Modern day rap doesn't sound like this much at all really. The origin of modern day rap is probably around when Nas and people were starting
@@chrisnorman1902 of course modern day rap doesn't sound like this today, it's called progression. This is the first rap song and was the source of inspiration for many OG Rappers who rapped about life not hoes, drugs, alcohol, cars and money. The switch to modern rap was rappers like Sir Mix Alot, Easy E, and just to name a couple. 2 Pac and Biggie tried to save the industry and they killed them for it. Now we are stuck with bubble gum rap.
@@noshobalosa3437 I know rap has progressed since then. This wouldn't be the first rap song - there were songs like Here Come The Judge by Pigmeat Markham back in 1968 for example. I wouldn't say Sir Mix A Lot or Eazy E really had a modern sound to their hip hop either, they still rapped very much in an 80s style, especially to start with. Around 1994 with Illmatic by Nas is when you start really hearing the start of modern rap, with the style of hip hop and flow that would then take over and become the norm pretty much until now. Ready To Die by Biggie was the same sort of time. You can hear how the rap before that sounds and feels a lot different and less modern.
Yes there are examples of rap samples in history, Rappers Delight was however the world premiere of rap to the masses. Obviously in some areas rap was being performed but Rappers Delight exposed millions outside that bubble. Maybe I'm reading to much into it, and yes Eazy E and Sir rapped in an 80's style because that's when they started rapping and both said Rappers Delight was something among many that influenced them. For most of that was alive and heard it one the radio, or the skating rink t was new and fresh something we had never heard before. Then again all I have is an opinion, much respect for your response and the information you shared.
This was the first rap song I've ever heard. "Rapper's Delight" is a legend but "Jump on it" is still my favorite song by Sugarhill Gang
The beats are from "Good Times" from Chic...Nile Rodgers created the most recognizable bass line ever!
Bernard Edwards, not Nile Rodgers.
@@PjRjHj you're right, Niles was the guitarist!
@@cteal2018 an awesome Guitars 😎
We used to listen to this when I was in a program called Upward Bound. We would have so much fun dancing and be goofy.
Old school rap! I was toddler when this song came out, late '70s. Loved old rap during the '80s and '90s growing up. But yes old rap was more fun and had more substances to their songs back then and the music and beats were good. Lots of funk. Keep in mind. A lot of old rap music sampled disco beats songs . Disco music was big during the '70s and '80s. Therefore the very funky beats. Also sampled from old rock songs, old funk songs and jazz songs and music during that period. The random hibbidity dibbidity type words that they throw around at times is called scatting. From jazz music/jazz singers. lol
Later on the, record scratching became popular and added to rap music. The wiiicky wiiiicky type sound. DJs would do that on spin tables.
Next up . Yall need to do Kurtis Blow "The Breaks"!
And these are the breaks
! Break it up, break it up, break it up!! Break down!
Old skool roller skating music lol.
LOL @ "...this song sounds like A LOT of cologne."
I'm dead.
☠️☠️☠️
Nice guys...the origin of Rap!
The backing session band on this track later went on to form an industrial/dub/hip-hop band called Tack>>Head (produced by Adrian Sherwood) who made some absolutely FIRE tracks in the 80s and 90s. They are super obscure but absolutely worth a listen - I recommend the track from their 1989 album "Friendly as a Hand Grenade" called "Tell me the Hurt"
...and then maybe "Ska Trek"
If you're not dancing at the club or a house party, you are definitely at the roller rink, skating to this. I know I did when this came out in 1980. Keep rocking it yall no matter what age.🛼✊🏾👍🏾✌🏾
Came out in the Summer of 1979 To many people know this and were dancing to it in the fall and the start of winter in 1979 It was released as a single, The Lp Rappers delight came out in 1980,, But it was all ready a huge hit before the 80s even started
These songs were mind blowing back in the late 70s early 80s.. this and the song Jam on It were my favorite songs as a young 80s lad.. being in NYC hearing these songs pop out of a guys boom box and watching them break on the sidewalk were unbelievable times
1979 REDLEASED
