It may sound really dated now, but it's hard to express just how groundbreaking this was when it first came out. It was the first ever mainstream hip hop release and most people had never heard anyone rapping to music before. This really was revolutionary.
This song and Rapture by Blondie!
and shame it was just a hustle. it was hugely impactful but Caz said it best in that Hip Hop Evolution interview when he was like "this?! those my rhymes!" and it was soft by standards back then even. but Sylvia Robinson had the vision and we here
You are 100% correct! I was probably 12 or 13 (around '82 or '83) when I first discovered rap and it was AMAZING to me! I couldn't get enough of it. 🙂
Had no idea that disco was on its way out while rap was on the rise back in the late 70s.
Gotta check out Double Dutch Bus!🥰
Everyone over 50 knows every word to this song and can still sing right along…
I know every word. My favorite
Haha. Yup. My dad loves this song.
I still remember most of the words..it came out when I was in middle school and took over the world
Yes but i'm a little younger! had an older cousin!
Yes sir, sure do! ❤️🇨🇦
Hahaha 55 here and just almost sang every word WOW I was 13 when this came out. Fresh roller skates and a boom box to match this song was all you heard till the Beastie Boys came out. Loved that you did this didn't know I could still sing this song still. Love ya for the walk down memory lane 🥰🥰🥰
58 and still loving it.
54 here. I was starting to get into rock and roll about the time that this came out and so really didn't get into the emerging rap scene. Even I can sing along and remember most of the lyrics.
Bboys get a mention, and thats cool af. Same or similar period. Some rocked on...
This song is in the Library of Congress being culturally important to music. I was 8 years old and we'd go crazy hearing this. My poor mother had to hear this over and over-then SHE got in to it as well. Good memories
This was lifted off Chic's "GoodTimes" so they sampled really early as well.
Technically they didn't actually sample it, they just played the same song and rapped over it (with instruments). Sampling didn't happen for a few more months, lol.
Correct! However Sugarhill had a house band who played the music.
Another huge hit from 1979
I remember skating to this at the roller rink. I’m old AF 🤣
Same you'd be tired as hell ✌️
Another well known song that "started" rap/hip hop was "The Message" by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five. This song was more of a dance song but The Message had a much harder edge.
This song is a classic! Another classic from around this time is “Double Dutch Bus” by Frankie Smith..check it out!
Without Rappers Delight, There is nothing.
Right on!!!
They layed down the blueprint for what was to come 👍….not just hip hop but a lot of.different genres of music and styles was created back then during the 70s and 80s…..lots of creativity back then
I was in the Marine Corps when this song came out, and those guys wore multiple cassettes out on their boom boxes playing this! This brought back such great memories!
Same here. Was returning from Oki when I first heard this. Thought it was a mixtape until I was told it was the radio playing.
I can only imagine. its like a 12 minute track lol
@@darylwelch2496 did you like your time in Oki? I’ve heard from most folks who have been stationed there that they had a delightful time.
@@tais1355 each of the 3 times I was there had it's ups and downs. Mostly ups. But, then again, I also enjoy combat operations. Lol
I can still recall my white suburban parents dancing and singing along to this song in our family room during weekend parties. To add some perspective, my Dad is 85 years old now.
Dance floors, yards and living rooms all filled up with this one 🤣 tks for the memories - we had it goin on. All colors, all genres, all feeling the beat 💕😌
Also in 1979, when this rap song was hitting the scene, so was Prince with I Wanna Be Your Lover, and Michael Jackson's Off The Wall album was on top.
M pop music .The Buggles Videos killed the radio star,, Funky town . Were all released in 1979 ,, 1979 may have been the biggest year ever for the music industry
Most of the music back then was about having a good time.. in all genres... There was some political stuff but most was about the party.. wish we could get back to that
Old school music is amazing
Stated it all!! Without this, Rap wouldn't have went as mainstream as fast as it did. I was a yr old, but when I heard this yrs late, it lead me to KRS-1, RUN DMC, LL Cool J, & the Slick Rick's of the World! & it was a WRAP (or should I say RAP) for me, from the on!
KRS-1…….ahhhhhh sheet!😉
40+ yrs later I still remember every word!!❤🔥
I was 10 yrs old when this came out. I remember seeing them perform this on Soul Train. I was blown away. Sitting here listening to this - memories coming back - dancing in my seat. BJ had the groove going! ML&R
I was 14 and the same thing.....

12 for me my friend.
This one NEVER grows old!! Imagine; I am Norwegian and grew up in the countryside of north of Norway , just a teen then in 70-80ties- and even I KNEW this song and got hooked in rapping, HipHop and Streetdance!! Even got a SoulTrain-fever!! This song was my start of this music genre (the lyrics!! LOL), and even today- well grown up- it has made my way into Kpop!! Thank you guys for reacting to this!! Keep uo the good work, and stay healthy!
Love and greetings from Norway!!
That soul train line ya feel me 💯💯💯
Love it! My favorite song by them is 8th Wonder! We roller-skated to this song a lot! And yes lol their lyrics were wild, they were freaky in a good way :) Also could you please react to Apache by them(even though it always reminds me of Will Smith and Carlton from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air entering a dance contest and they played this song) Keep On Rockin'
OMGosh I forgot about roller skating to this until I read your post. More memories flooding back. Thx!!
@@christymurphy6571 isn`t music great for memories! :)
There was rapping going on already but they were the first to get a rap hit song playing all over the place. The song in the background is the song Good Times by Chic.
The background music is sampled from Chic's "Good Times". First Top 40 rap song and the the first rap song I ever heard.
Still know every word 40 yrs later... loved the Sugarhill Gang 🥰
RAPper's Delight was definitely where it all began! & for those who couldn't remember the name of it referred to it as "the hip hop song" because of the starting lyrics. This was the very first vinyl record I ever owned in the 70's & used to play it over & over on my Wonder Woman record player. 😆
Definitely get the party started. At the club, skate rink 🛼, backyard BBQ etc. It was coming from the underground starting off. Yall Definitely need to the 14.30 minute extension play to this. I guarantee yall will get up to dance and jam. Great reactions yall ✊🏾✌🏾👍🏾🎶🕺🏾🛼
Add to your Playlist. The beat behind it is from group CHIC the song GOOD TIMES
I remember when this came out.. first hip hop album I ever bought.. still love it
Do some more throwback. Like fat boys , grandmaster flash and UTFO
Grew up roller skating at public ring with real people. Actual real life other human beings. We would skate in circles jamiñ
When this song first came out, the Sugar Hill Gang did this song live for promotion at my Roller Rink; Roll-A-Palace in Brooklyn, NY; was an awesome experience for a 13 year old!!!! I can still sing every word!!!!!!!!
The background in this is from Le Chic's "Good Times". 1977. Love your reactions!
Also check-out 'Grand Master Flash & The Furious Five', song is called 'White Line's' ( just naming one )
I was in 6th/7th grade when this came out...it changed everything. We taped it off the radio with a tape recorder..memorized every word. I STILL know most of the words..it's just in my brain hardware now!! It was revolutionary.
George Clinton mother ship p funk nation pretty Please!
OMG! This song takes me back to my high school days! We had never heard anything like it before and we couldn't get enough of it. Looking back, we had no idea we were experiencing the birth of an entire new genre of music.
This song gave us the phrase "hip hop." This song was ON FIRE back in the day. People calling radio stations or going to record stores kept asking for the "hip...hop" song (the first words of the song). So it became known as that "hip hop" song.
This and oddly enough Blondie were the first to bring wrap onto the charts. It opened the door for beastie boys and Run DMC and after that the doors were wide open.
Rap today to not REAL rap. It's posturing. THIS is the real deal.
Anyone remember roller skating at the Fleetwood in Chicago? EVERYONE would get out there and skate and do moves at the same time!! It was truly amazing back in the day!!!
I was 11 when this song came out and everyone went crazy over this song. I live in the Midwest. I live about 2 1/2 hours from Chicago. In my area nobody ever heard this type of music. In Chicago they were already listening to this new "rap" music. It was a phenomonal time to be young! So much great music came from hip hop! Old school rap is and will always be THE BEST!!
This is literally where RAP, AND HIP HOP. came frome the words are in the title and song. They were fantastic. I won a dance competition once dancing to this song , it was 14 mins long, I was soaked with sweat 😅🤣
You all need to hear the full 14 minute version
Man I was just a little kid when this came out. I've always loved this song.
Before this you had the Jamaican toasters, U Roy being the best and I think it was DJ Kool Herc who said that without the Jamaican dj's there would not have been hip hop. You have to do some U Roy, he's brilliant.
If you want some unique British music then go back to the 90's and react to ShyFx and Apache Indian, Original Nuttah. Pretty sure you won't have heard jungle before, it'll have you dancing in your chairs!!!
Yeah !!!!!! So glad u guys reacted to this. That was fun
Sugar Hill, Grandmaster Flash, Rakim... all worth exploring. You can feel the disco/soul train flavors in there.
The beat is straight rip off Good Times by Chic.
@@maxis5650 Indeed
The Worm and The Sperm were actual dances, back in the day.
This came out when I was 3 & captivated me as it was a huge hit here in the UK reaching number 3 in the singles charts, among a mostly white population such as myself. Even my father who detested all rap music that followed liked it. I found rap lost the fun, the funk & the creativity around the mid-late 1990's for the most part.
I was in elementary school when this came out and I couldn't retain anything I read in school, but damn if I couldn't rap this song! We had no idea this would be considered rap later on down the road.
SAY Whaaaaat‼️ That’s what I’m talkin’ bout .. Hell ya BJ, you KNOW!
THX’s 🔥🔥🔥 reaction! ♥️ yawl
This a Fav of Mike Cross (Wonder Mike lol) so, he’s got a live version w/ Grandmaster Melle Mil 🔥 coming out that I requested. Will sent link when drops of ud like! ♥️
The music is ”Good times” by Chic. 😎👍🏼👍🏽👍🏾
Hello from Australia, this song came out when I was 16, I remember it being the first rap song? I think it was the start of the end of Disco. Love from Australia.
Hey guys. Although Sugar Hill hit the hardest with their record back then, the very first rap record was King Tim The Third - Fatback Band.
So awesome how Asia's smile just kept gettin bigger and bigger! 😁😂😂😂❤️
I am 54. This was the first song that got me dancing in 5th grade. Never stopped dancing since.
Hi! The song they rapped with is Good Times by the band Chic! Worth reacting to itself! Also check out Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five…more great pioneers of rap/hip hop…Enjoy! ✌🏻🇨🇦
I loved this in the 70s.. I had this album...
This is the beginning. I bought this LP album when it came out took it into my high school band room and played it on the turntable. I have friends that remember me for turning me onto the first rap. I am a 58 year old funky Caucasian. I have always been with the groove, with any music but this hit me strong. Love it. Now listen to some Teddy Pendergrass, please.
The album had some great funk tracks
This came out way before i was born but i've known about rappers delight since i was a november child
Omg! I forgot about this!! I remember when it came out it was such a new sound!! Hell yea!! I miss the 80's LOL
Roller skating to this, Strawberry Hill, Blonde, and several others that seem to come out roughly the same generalized time...childhood memories for those of us who grew up in the golden age of 70's and 80's... They would play these on college radio over the weekend, right after Punk rock & New Wave hours...music explosion and due to the new at that time MTV, music video explosion.
Thanks for the reaction.
Definitely still know all the words……we all do I think……❤️🎼🎶
Soul Train was a thing at the time and before.
This was the greatest, before feelings got hurt, we all loved each other. I am a 52yr old white woman who was raised color blind, now I wish I could go back because now the way things are it breaks my heart!
In case you haven't figured it out, Asia and BJ, the background music is "Good Times" by Chic.
I say hotel, motel, Holiday Inn!
If your girl starts acting up,
Then you bring her friend! 😁
Rap used to be about having fun. Today it's about money, gangsters, Tyronne's, and hoes.
This is the beginning of the beginning. This and The Message by Grand Master Flash. I was born in 1974, so I was growing up as hip hop was also growing up.
Every tune of this song has been sampled thousands of times, by other artists.
I know every word. I shouldn't but I do. I'm kinda embarrassed😛🤡
'Showdown' Sugarhill & the Furious Five is 🔥🔥🔥
Sugar Hill Gang and Kurtis Blow closed out the 1970s.
Grandmaster Flash-The Message
Or white lines .
First rap song. Everyone loved it.
You should listen to the full version…it’s over 14m and so much better 😊👍👍
This was the short version. You would find the long version more fun! 15 minutes of it!
about the same time as Grandmaster Flash and Furious 5 who put social issues out in front with their music, early 80s
In the movie "Wedding Singer", the older woman Adam Sandler gave singing lessons to sang this!
would love seeing more early rap/hip hop reactions, thanks for the video!
Finally! Best dance song ever! This is real rap!
Basement dance parties when I was around 12 this song was played a lot . Music and memories go hand in hand.,,
The Stone that the builder refuse, shall be the Head Cornerstone.
🗿🗿🗿
Maybe someone posted this already, but the term "Hip Hop" came from this song. People would go into the record stores asking if they had the song that goes Hip Hop....
See this cover,
CAKRA KHAN - TENNESSEE WHISKEY
There has always been the debate: who was the very 1st rap group, The Sugarhill gang or the Beastie Boys. I guess it depends on who you ask.
This was the late seventies, the beastie boys formed in 1981
the question was sugar hill or cold crush , the answer is cold crush .. all respect but sugar hill is the first boy band .. record company created them for the radio, but everyone know Kool Herc invented hip hop..
Awesome reaction guys luv y’all. U should check out some Whodini Either “the freaks come out at night “. Or “friends”. Nice job
This reminds me of going to the skating rink...this was THE best song!!!?
Yes yes yes, even down here in New Zealand, Color me Bad changed lives
Love this song. Irresistible!
First rappers, first sample (Good Times). 🫶
Don’t forget break dancing and break dance battles 😂
If you listen again, you will hear other songs that took small lines from from the songs. At least 5 80’s/90’s songs that I know of.
Top choon guys great review ... I've just subscribed btw x
A lady by the name of Debbie Harry aka Blondie has been credited for the beginning of Rap music with her song the rapture.
Omg I was so excited when I saw this! This was my ish! Back when we carried our boom boxes around!
Old school rap. ❤️❤️❤️ Rap today is not what it started out to be. Honestly, old school was the bomb. Today, I just don’t understand it. But… everyone is different. My favorite is Gangster Paradise by Coolio.
That's the very first popular rap song we heard everywhere.
This song came out when I was in 6th grade. All the kids learned every word.
soultrain debuted in 1970!
Proper Rap👏👏👏👏
Not like the crap today👎
