The Sugarhill Gang

amazing.

And as far as hip hop goes, the first commercially successful song was rappers delight by sugar hill gang.

And that was a Sylvia Robinson production.

Those guys are Englewood,

he coined it you know what i mean his album he had an album called goat

the heap so he's the oh yeah he's the original original yeah so there is no no outdoing ll i don't think but like i say cannabis did a good job but he never reinvented himself as an artist So we're going to roll on Sugar Hill Gang.

Y'all remember them? Rappers Delight.

Yeah, they only had that one hit.

Also, the baseline for Sister Sledge is We Are Family because Bernard and Nile Rodgers ended up producing Sister Sledge.

And because of his baseline on the song Good Times, the Sugar Hill Gang got the first rap hit to hit the Billboard Top 40 with Rapper's Delight.

There you go.

Norman Wright was born in 1937.

Like, those are the architects.

You know, even Sugar Hill Gang.

You know what I'm saying? Like, those were the moments that were, like, the first early moments in MCs for me that meant everything.

You know, Jimmy Spicer.

I mean, it is the backbeat of one of the all-time classic hip-hop tracks.

Rapper's Delight by Sugarhill Gang.

And then we heard Positive Force with what else? But we've got the funk.

And we've definitely got the funk here at CJSW, 9.9 FM, 24-7, 52 weeks of the year.

sounds like some New York type.

Well, you're thinking of the Sugar Hill Gang, which is like one of the original hip hop groups.

And then also there's the Sugar Hill Project.

Yeah, exactly.
