Blondie was born in 1945. Post a picture of yourself when you're 72 and we'll decide how hot you are. [:D]
Debbie Harry was the commercially successful first rapper, a White chick.
Heart of Glass was my fav off the Parallel Lines album.
Really...
This was #1 top 40 in '78 , well before Blondie who only really incorporated a little rap between the end of the refrain and the bridge ...
"I like Hot butter on my breakfast toast..."
I still can't find the full version they used to play on WTMA in Charleston... It was Le Freak on the intro and outro and Rappers Delight for the rest of the song. One of the first Disco / Rap fusions...
And for what its worth the Beastie Boys and some other groups did much better than that...
And Disco still sucks!Yep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you can't feel the music; it's only pink noise!
And Disco still sucks!
still Better than almost anything from the 90's and the past 6 to 8 years other than country...

Yeah, really. Wiki:

I really don't think one song with one part that is "rap like" would qualify one as a "rapper"

What a disappointment. [:(]
Talk about a devil in sheep's clothing.
That weight she put on over the years must have affected her brain.

Then Lee Harvey Oswald is not really an assassin or Wilber Wright an aviator? I can see your point about Neil Armstrong not being a "moonwalker" like Michael Jackson though. [;)]
i watched it when it happened, as well as the very fist song played "video killed the radio star"
of course that was waaaay back when mtv was worth something
And as long as I can hold on to the memories of what all of those hot gals looked like back in the day, I will refrain from allowing my eyes to gaze upon what they have become![;)]
Ignorance is bliss!

She was also a Playboy Bunny![:p]
He talked the entire song so if that is what RAP is then I'd put my vote on ole Telly!
