Art critics consider the single Rapper's Delight to be the first track in this style, which was skillfully read by The Sugarhill Gang.
There are three main styles of rap music:
- Old School Rap (fast tempo of text delivery to musical accompaniment).
- Southern Rap. (reading lyrics to driving music).
- Underground Rap. (Debunking classic stereotypes).
