So every party song is good?
I never saw a song make oldheads angry like this did when it came out

- Start date
And that might be the best song ever.
Of course it doesn't sound exactly like a song from 1981, since it's "vulgar" in early 80s terms, production completely different and on.
The point was that it was just a fun dance song, as most songs from the early 80s. But somehow, people equate The sun rises in the east or Soul on Ice with "real hiphop". Fun music is just as real with the mc just talking about how fresh he is and how to move, pause.
It was basic even for most dance songs in Rap. You’re forgetting that Rappers Delight for example an was interpolation of a couple funk classics, Laffy Taffy sounds less musically inspired in comparison, and it’s worst lyrically than a lot of rap songs of that era.
I knew it was gone be this. 
. RIP Lo. Song was trash, but it was funny seeing people lose their shyt over this. Hiphop is huge and nikkas stay focusing on the 2 percent they don't like. The only time I heard this song (because I changed the station when it came on) was at parties when girls were shaking their ass to it.

na, what he posted is pure facts
na, the first MC's of hiphop were spitting call and reponse type stuff; nursery rhymes, on par with Laffy Taffy

no the f*ck it doesnt sound like something from '81.
rappers in 1981 were actually spittin & flowin' they ass off.
the D4L stuff was rap at its lowest denominator.....at that time at least. it has gotten way worse since then.
to be fair, i felt like there were groups out at the time that were actually worse. you couldnt tell me that trillville & crime mob were any better. they just werent as blatant & nonchalant about it.

what was right with it?
I don't even think the song is the rap antichrist like most people but this whole "b bu but what about 'Rapper's Delight!'" or (insert random early 80's hip-hop club/dance track here) gotta be one of the dumbest most disingenuous angles I've ever seen on this board. And that's saying a lot.
Once Rakim (and a few others) dropped people stopped rapping like that. All that shyt was considered dead and out dated. So mentioning a style of song....that was considered dead by the end of the fukking decade it originated in....to justify another song damn near 3 decades later....is retarded. Just say you like the song and KIM.

I would like to draw everyone's attention, especially those claiming early hip-hop didn't have bars, to 9:55 minutes into 1979's "Superrappin"
