    But, we like hot butter on our breakfast toast🎶

  9. This is so freaky to me!

    Pre- #TBI me was pretty much raised on #rap. From the #SugarHillGang to #CurtisBlow to #Biggie, I felt, & danced, & grew up with this #music. I was probably listening to this when I had my first kiss.

    Today it’s like… nothing

    Cold.

    I’m so different now 😶

    #Rapture by #Blondie

    » #RapMusic was very much a sub-culture which was remained relatively unknown to the average American on the street.

    While there had been artists like #GrandmasterFlash #AfrikaBambaataa & #KurtisBlow
    who had been rapping since the mid-1970s,

    only The #SugarhillGang cracked the Hot 100 in #1979 with ‘Rapper’s Delight’

    as the genre continued to operate outside of the mainstream «
