Reviews :

“The Sugarhill Gang's 1979 hit "Rapper's Delight" is arguably the first true rap song to gain widespread recognition and, as such, the progenitor of one of the world's major musical genres. No wonder it doesn't sound dated today.” AllMusic Review by William Ruhlmann

 

Ratings :

AllMusic : 4.5 / 5 ; Discogs : 4.3 / 5
