This is my ode to the first hit hip hop song (no matter how corny it was to the REAL hip hoppers of the time). yes, writing the lyrics were tedious, but at least it wasn't "In A Gadda Da Vida."

Nothing to do with the early rap group, record label , or 90's Wesley Snipes film. This is the trailer to an incredible looking 70's blaxploitation/zombi e/revenge flick. I apologize for the poor sound quality. The star looks a bit like Pam Grier but it's not. I don't know if this film is available on DVD but it can't possibly live up to this trailer.
We had the chance to catch the legendary Sugarhill Gang while they stopped in Germany. Watch the Interview and the Performance, they are still rocking!

I decided to prove it is INCREDIBLY easy to put ANY rap over the Thomas the Tank Engine theme.
The music took about half an hour to make. Fresh Prince + Thomas, anyone?

The Original Sugar hill gang members Wonder Mike and Master Gee Perform at local free street festival thier one and only major hit but all important "Rappers Delight" Note: This rapper actually wrote the words "hip-hop". Kind of important in the scheme of things to come for music.
