Various - Rap Classics (EP) (@320)














This post is dedicated to Sylvia Robinson who passed away some months ago. Although her singing career cannot be overlooked (mainly for Love Is Strange in the 50's and for Pillow Talk in the 70's), her contribution in the birth of rap, as the co-founder of Sugar Hill Records and as the producer of many of the songs that are considered as core material of the genre is immense. The relevant upload (a premium of a greek music magazine some ten years ago) combines three groups of the company, her two most important productions (namely Rapper's Delight and The Message) along with the Sugar Hill Records logo on the front cover.

Tracklisting:
1-Grandmaster Flash & The Furius Five - The Message
2-Treacherous Three - Gotta Rock
3-The Sugarhill Gang - Rapper's Delight
4-The Furius Five Meets The Gugarhill Gang - Showdown
