About Sugarhill Gang, The Furious Five, Grandmaster Melle Mel - Back To The Old School - Rapper's Delights

2 CD set. As one of the very first rap groups, and certainly the first to have a hit, the Sugarhill Gang are crucial to the history of hip-hop. The trio of Master G, Wonder Mike, and Big Bank Hank hailed from New Jersey, but it was through seminal NYC hip-hop label Sugarhill Records that they achieved fame, as their single 'Rapper's Delight', based around the groove of Chic's hit 'Good Times', became a massive hit in 1979 and paved the way for a tidal wave of rappers. The Gang didn't stay together long or record much, but what they left behind was more than enough. Castle. Music. 2006. Album Description
