Editorial Review:

Album Description:
1995 compilation on Castle's Sequel label featuring 12 of these rap pioneer's phattes, including 'Rapper's Delight' (Album Version & Ben Leibrand DMC Remix), 'Apache' and 'KickIt Live From 9 To 5'.

Amazon.com:
It's not quite the first rap record, or the best, but Rapper's Delight--15 glorious minutes of the bass line from Chic's "Good Times," with a New Jersey crew spieling goofy routines about Superman and bad food on top--is one king hell of a party-starter. After that, they could have filled the rest of the disc with crowd noise and gotten away with it, but the Sugarhill Gang had a bunch of other party-jam hits, notably the almost-as-indelible "Apache" and "8th Wonder." Those songs show up here too, along with some entertaining non-hits and "Showdown," their rap-off with the Furious Five. What they're saying isn't really the point; the point is to move the crowd, and they're still hip-hop's greatest entertainers. --Douglas Wolk



Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Huge Historical Significance; the Music is Good
This is definitely a good CD. It's hits from the Sugarhill Gang, whom many musical historians have designated as the first rappers. Or maybe it's that "Rapper's Delight" has been thought of as the first rap song? Rapper's Delight kicks off this album, and it's very catchy, chock full of creative lyrics [unlike today's swear-filled rap records] that make for a funny song. The full version, which is here, is very long. The rest of the disc shows itself very much a product of the times in which ... Read More


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Hip Hop at it's best.
This is truly a get up and dance CD that everyone would love. You can't just sit down listening to this.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great
Great Service, Quick Turnaround! I was very pleased. This was a very hard to get item.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Not "Old School" But Rather "Before School Had a Name"
The Sugarhill Gang brought Rap to the mainstream and in many ways cut a path for others to follow and build upon. Listening to this album, their nostalgic appeal is obvious. It is upbeat with catchy hooks and fun lyrics. The beat will get your head bopping and toes tapping. This is timeless music about partying, having some good fun from "Back in the Day" where the worst thing you could be is a "Sucka MC."

Recommended songs: "Rapper's Delight," "Apache," "Kickin' It Live From 9 to ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Classic
I applaud the person who put Super Pimp in his place. For that prick to have the audacity to disrespect them shows great ignorance on his part in the culture of Hip Hop. The Sugarhill Gang, along with the hip hop Holy Trinity (DJ Kool Herc, Grandmaster Flash and Afrika Bambaataa) are the embodiment of Hip Hop.

Admittedly, I'm a fan of "Gangsta" rap as well, but I still respect, appreciate and enjoy the originators of this incredible genre... and if you think NELLY is gangsta there is ... Read More
