Sugarhill Gang - The Lover In You

Dec 21, 2008, 8:31am Too Much Apple Pie
Sugarhill Gang - The Lover In You
In which the erstwhile Rappers Delight hitmakers seem to have forgotten the whole pioneering-hip-hop thing a few years earlier when returning with this slice of none-more-eighties soul - with a smidgen of cheesy rap thrown in almost as an afterthought. Dead good though. Sugarhill Gang - The Lover In You mp3

A Feel Good Mix of Old School Hits!

Dec 15, 2008, 6:00am salacious sound
Recently my father was complaining about the fact that house and electro aren't real music because the musicians don't play their own instruments. What he doesn't realize is that today's house music is yesterday's disco. Today's mixdown is a throwback to a time where synthesizers didn't dominate music, when disco was king, and house was on the horizon. The tracklist is impeccable. Every one of these songs makes me move in my seat and want to move my feet. The culprit behind the mix is Toronto DJ SplatterMonkey who has been spinning around Toronto for a while now. [...]

MP3 + Story: The History of St. Louis Hip-Hop -- Dr. Jockenstein, Charlie Chan, Dangerous D, Early D And How "Rapper's Delight" Touched Off a Revolution

Oct 23, 2008, 8:00am A to Z
MP3 + Story: The History of St. Louis Hip-Hop -- Dr. Jockenstein, Charlie Chan, Dangerous D, Early D And How "Rapper's Delight" Touched Off a Revolution Keegan Hamilton's cover story in the RFT this week is a fascinating read . Spawned from this A to Z blog post -- in which Hamilton detailed how Vintage Vinyl employees discovered a stash of old vinyl records created by Charlie Chan, Dangerous D and Early D -- the article traces how these LPs were created, and places them in context with hip-hop culture both in St. Louis and nationally. Here are some excerpts from the story -- along with some rare audio footage of legendary St. Louis DJ Dr. Jockenstein (who [...]

Project X Hits the Hip-Hop Nostalgia Circuit [Project X]

Oct 6, 2008, 11:00am Idolator
Project X Hits the Hip-Hop Nostalgia Circuit [Project X] As part of Idolator's continuing effort to geekily analyze every music chart known to man, we present a new edition of Project X, in which Michaelangelo Matos breaks down top-ten lists from every genre imaginable. After the jump, he sits through VH1's latest TV-based listicle, 100 Greatest Hip-Hop Songs , and finds a few poignant moments among the MC Hammer jokes: Last week, when I wrote about listicles , I forgot a non-print, but still big and obvious, agent of the format's spread: cable television.

Sylvia Robinson And All Platinum Soul Sound Studios

Sep 17, 2008, 1:47pm Fusion 45
Sylvia Robinson And All Platinum Soul Sound Studios I had no idea before today that Sylvia Robinson was such a pioneer in the world of soul music. As Sylvia Vanderpool she was one half of the famed duo, Mickey And Sylvia , who scored a Top 10 hit in 1957 with their cover of Bo Diddley's Love Is Strange . In 1964, Vanderpool married Joe Robinson and together they launched All Platinum Soul Sound Studios as well as the All Platinum, Stacy and Vibration labels. [...]

The Canon, Examined: Sugar Hill Records, Part 1

Aug 22, 2007, 3:47pm The Rawking Refuses To Stop!
Sugar Hill Gang- Rappers Delight
As Alfred noted in another post , this has not been a banner year for hip-hop. Very few artists seem to have tried for greatness in 2007, and yet fewer have achieved it. Aside from the mawkish-to-the-point-of-absurd Sean Kingston single "Beautiful Girls," virtually nothing even in the vicinity of hip-hop has interested me in the last 8ish months. For this reason, I'd been listening to little rap new or old lately. Fast forward to last weekend. I took my friend Gabby with me to a DJ gig and she started dropping this old school shit [...]

Frá Missy Elliott til The Shadows

Sep 21, 2006, 8:35pm fl
Frá Missy Elliott til The Shadows Hip-hop er mjög sjálfhverf tónlistarstefna og textabrot eru endurnýtt aftur og aftur og taktar endurunnir undir ýmsum formerkjum. Talent borrows, genius steals. Dæmin eru fjölmörg um stöðuga endurvinnslu og gaman að skoða hvernig unnið er með efnið. Missy Elliott gaf t.a.m. út lagið We Run This í fyrra og notaði þá Apache taktinn frá Sugarhill Gang en þeirra enduvinnsla á laginu hefur verið samplaður endalaust innan hip-hop heimsins. En Sugarhill Gang endurunnu taktinn frá Incredible Bongo Band sem hafði endurunnið hann frá Shadows. Fyndið samt í upphafi We Run This segir Missy "my style can't be duplicated or recycled" rétt [...]

The Incredible Bongo Band & The Apache

Aug 18, 2006, 2:42pm My Old Kentucky Blog
The Incredible Bongo Band & The Apache Arguably, DJs took Apache , and with it, put hip-hop on the grid. Not arguably, it could be one of the most sampled songs by hip-hop artists of all time. Missy Elliot, Coldcut, Will Smith, Jurassic Five, Run DMC, Beastie Boys, Moby and of course Sugarhill Gang, to name a few, have all found uses for the song in their own work.
