Rap was invented by a white girl?

James Brown was rappin on wax in the 60's



He invented breakdancing and the moonwalk too

Moonwalk, maybe. Breakdancing, nope. That's been around forever. Nothing in Hip-Hop is original, it's all from somewhere very old, and breakdancing is very old. Capoeira was started in the 1700's, and it's base was breakdancing.

 Hmm whilst i found the song and idea very interesting i posted this somewhat taking the piss but its actually an interesting discussion. Educational.
 I knew about Kool herc but not that he was around as early as that.
 Yeah i didn't know alot of this stuff. I've heard of that documentary "style wars' its been recommended to me but i havent gotten around to it.
 Sounds like i should.

as far as Blondie's song, it was the first time rap was crossed over in a pop song. they were close with Fab 5 Freddie, Basquiat and them.
