It's a goofy song yes...its just a dumb party song that hoes liked but it's honestly closer to the spirit of OG hiphop than most backpack "real hiphop"

Hiphop started as slightly goofy party music......not much difference between shake that laffy taffy and a hip hop hippa to the

The idea of barrrzzzz didn't really come about until the mid 80s

Ppl need to loosen up....theres room for all types of sounds in rap....

Almost everything you said here is factually inaccurate.
I'm gonna save this because this is textbook example of somebody not knowing what they're talking about.

I don’t know why people don’t get that comparing a song like Laffy Taffy to Rappers Delight makes zero sense lol. Those songs came out 26 years apart! You’re not supposed to put these songs in the same ballpark. Rappers Delight is not a great song to me and it’s entirely too damn long but I’m taking it over laffy taffy.

We had a segment called “Bump it or Dump it” on the radio were the DJ played a new “hot” record and then people called in and said whether they like it or not and they played this...maaaan the fukkery that ensued on the radio that day:mjlol:

It's one of the most hiphop songs ever, sounds like it came out in 1981.

Old heads think the most pure rap that ever was made came out 20 years after hiphop was founded for some reason
Hip hop started with emcees rhyming over breaks. How is Laffy Taffy that?
Not to mention that when an art form is birthed it takes time for everything to come together. I think in the case of hip hop that occurred in about 87 with BDP and Eric and Ra.

Listen to the Kool Moe Dee vs. Busy Bee battle again.
