He just wanted the answer, not a debate or what everyone thinks the first song actually is. |
Muhammed Ali was the first rapper.
TRIPPAR'S HIPHOP & RAP HISTORY: DJ Kool Herc was the first person to actually put together hiphop music back in '73 at the famous NY block parties. Then Afrikaa Baambata and Grandmaster Flash appeared on the scene, and shit started to sprout. As for the emceeing side of things ("RAP" for all you newbs), that came around simply from DJs shouting shit out while playing stuff like "Get Down! Yeah! Word! Throw your hands in the air and wave them like you just dont care" and all that other shit. By the late 70s, rappers started appearing as 'Masters Of Ceremonies' for the block parties or 'MCs' (Rappers). ...and there it is.......... |
I believe the very first rap group was actually a small band of guys out of Harlem (I don't know if that's the location, but I believe so. If anyone knows what I'm talking about, correct me), who called themselves "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised." Their raps actually called for an overthrow of US government, and DJs lost their jobs for playing their songs on the radio. What a wonderful world it would be today is DJs were canned for playing rap.

I don't believe he was the first hip-hopper, or that he really played much of a part in the creation of rap or hiphop..... although he must of been some sort of inspiration back then. The reason I don't think he played a big part, is because you can see the clear timeline of the creation of rap and hiphop after he started broadcasting. Like I said in my post before, rap began as DJ's Masters Of Ceremonies (MCs), who were like the ringmasters or hosts for the later block parties, started reciting whole verses and songs over the DJ's beats.....A quick migration from them simply saying "Throw your hands in the air," "nod ya head" etc. The first MCs are alot like today's "hype-MCs," Flava Flav, Kid Capri, Fatman Scoop, etc. P.S - Finally, an interesting thread. |
I see. I was under the impression it was the name of a band. I am enlightened.
