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.
