I’d say it was Sugarhill Records, not the Sugarhill Gang that was a fraud. Only fraudulent thing was the story of the rhymes between Big Bank Hank and Grandmaster Caz. But either way, the industry is a business and unfortunately artists get screwed.
Your absolutely right it was
the record company that was
fraudulent not the group they
were getting rip off and exploited
never got any royalties for their
work!
About the message, the fact that Melle Mel just added a verse that was 3 years prior makes it even more creditable. He was rapping consciousness even before Hip-Hop went mainstream
They didn’t suck it dry… THEY CAPITOLIZED. Yes they did steal, but it’s in the competitive nature of rap. Can’t really take away their credit of getting rap started in a huge way…
I can’t argue with that
The GMF and FF5 manager was Gene Chandler.
Brother please get to the point.
I did
Thank you. I was falling asleep.

That’s why to this day they don’t really get the credit they deserve . Grand master Flash and Melle y Mel , get all the accolades for real because they were not put together and manufactured like alot of pop groups were . Grand Master Flash and Melle Mel were real cars that created there own music and raps .
I'm from the Bx RPT west side we knew Caz lyrics but my brother DJ Kojak was in cedar park and let's talk about in house musician being jerk I know
Does DJ Kojak is still alive ?
Still a classic tho. And it still gets play in da ride, and at the BBQ🤷🏽♂️
Finally someone said it
I had to 😂
Kurt's blow was the first one wit record thes r the breaks

If U eant to know the truth of Sugar Hill Records, watch the Documentary I Want My Name Back which talks about Sugar Hill Records and how shady they were. It talked about how Big Bank Hank stole his rhymes from GrandMaster Casanova and did not even pay homage to him. Not only that, but the record label stole the intellectual property of the group. There R now 2 groups which is The Real Sugar Hill Gang which is Wonder Mike, Master Gee, Hen Dogg. Big Bank Hank is a part of the fake group. He does make mention of some of the facts that R in the Documentary, but at the time of writing this, I wonder if he will mention the mob ties the record label had.
Hey Challz Brown what is your linage? Were you paternal and maternal people from? Point blank are you descendants of ADOS,FBA American Freedmen?
Been known
Yes but I never knew the full details, it gets so crazy it’s absurd they got away with it
damn. learn something new every day.
I hate that song
It’s a good record 😂😂😂
It was a shiesty money grab by the group and label
🙏🏾🤫✊🏽
Appreciate you watching

@challz Brown I agree with you, Sylvia jerk kat around
Come on c b shg stole cash r ymes
Good, informative video! Before the "Good Times" background starts, the intro to the recording is an interpolation of "Here Comes That Sound Again" by British studio group Love De-Luxe, a disco hit in 1979. ruclips.net/video/HHPXyzdS_nY/видео.htmlsi=qVlr5yG6h4Qud8Es
According to Oliver Wang, author of the 2003 Classic Material: The Hip-Hop Album Guide, recording artist ("Pillow Talk") and studio owner Sylvia Robinson had trouble finding anyone willing to record a rap song. Most of the rappers who performed in clubs did not want to record, as many practitioners believed the style was for live performances only. It is said that Robinson and her son overheard Big Bank Hank in a pizza parlour.[11] According to Master Gee, Hank auditioned for Robinson in front of the pizza parlor where he worked, whilst Gee himself auditioned in Robinson's car.[10] A live band was used to record most of the backing track, including members of the group "Positive Force": Albert Pittman, Bernard Roland, Moncy Smith, and Bryan Horton.[12][13][10]
Chip Shearin claimed during a 2010 interview that he was the bass player on the track. At the age of 17, he had visited a friend in New Jersey. The friend knew Robinson, who needed some musicians for various recordings, including "Rapper's Delight". Shearin's job on the song was to play the bass for 15 minutes straight, with no mistakes. He was paid $70 but later went on to perform with Sugarhill Gang in concert. Shearin described the session this way:
The drummer and I were sweating bullets because that's a long time. And this was in the days before samplers and drum machines, when real humans had to play things. ... Sylvia said, 'I've got these kids who are going to talk real fast over it; that's the best way I can describe it.'[14]
Wang said:
There's this idea that hip-hop has to have street credibility, yet the first big hip-hop song was an inauthentic fabrication. It's not like the guys involved were the 'real' hip-hop icons of the era, like Grandmaster Flash or Lovebug Starski. So it's a pretty impressive fabrication, lightning in a bottle.
