@@rockinron3215 Rap is just cadence, been going on for centuries in music. As for the industry. the first actual Hip Hop album released was the Sugar Hill Gang in 1981, one week before Rapture was released. Blondie refused to preform it on SNL unless they included The Funky 4+1. It's the first time the nation was introduced to the underground NY hip hop scene. It had been there on playgrounds and in underground clubs already, for years. Easily 1968, if not even before that.

In the late fifties in Philly we had 'Coffee Houses' (no, not Starbucks, small clubs). Before Hippies we had Beatniks. They'd recite their poetry to live jazz background music and much of it sounded like Rap. There was no name for it then other than poesy. @@bettyrose959

Debbie Harry and Chris Stein had got to know Fab Five Freddy who took them to Harlem where they experienced the rap battles that were happening at the time. Inspired they wrote Rapture and mixed rap with the their downtown new wave sensibilities. This was the first taste of rap for most Americans and was the first rap record to have music specially writen for it, before people were using samples and rapping over the top.. An interesting fact about the video: Freddie Braithwaite is name checked in the song and was supposed to play the DJ, but didn't turn up so they got Jean Michele Basquit to step in. Debbie was the first person to ever pay Basquit for a piece of art.

“Rapture” was the first number-one single in the United States to feature rap vocals. Saw Deborah Harry with a new Blondie lineup of radical youngsters at Cruel World last year. She sounded great and the band was loving it, like Iggy and his crew this year.

This song plus "Rapper's Delight" by The Sugar Hill Gang and "Rock Lobster" by The B-52s were the first songs I danced to at the first "dance" I ever went to at 12. These songs locked me in to becoming a club kid later on in the Pariah scene, Underground scene, House scene, Rave scene, etc...Gateway Songs!

Rap was such a new thing at the time and not popular yet. As a 8 year old at the time I had no idea what she was doing. Blondie uses it perfectly in a radio hit song, exposing millions to 80's rap.

"Rapture" Toe to toe Dancing very close Barely breathing Almost comatose Wall to wall People hypnotized And they're stepping lightly Hang each night in rapture Back to back Sacroiliac Spineless movement And a wild attack Face to face Sightless solitude And it's finger popping Twenty-four hour shopping in rapture Fab Five Freddy told me everybody's fly DJ spinnin' I said, "My my" Flash is fast, Flash is cool François c'est pas, Flash ain't no dude And you don't stop, sure shot Go out to the parking lot And you get in your car and drive real far And you drive all night and then you see a light And it comes right down and it lands on the ground And out comes a man from Mars And you try to run but he's got a gun And he shoots you dead and he eats your head And then you're in the man from Mars You go out at night eatin' cars You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too Mercurys and Subaru And you don't stop, you keep on eatin' cars Then, when there's no more cars you go out at night And eat up bars where the people meet Face to face, dance cheek to cheek One to one, man to man Dance toe to toe, don't move too slow 'Cause the man from Mars is through with cars He's eatin' bars, yeah wall to wall Door to door, hall to hall He's gonna eat 'em all Rapture, be pure Take a tour through the sewer Don't strain your brain, paint a train You'll be singin' in the rain Said don't stop to punk rock Well now you see what you wanna be Just have your party on TV 'Cause the man from Mars won't eat up bars where the TV's on Now he's gone back up to space Where he won't have a hassle with the human race And you hip-hop, and you don't stop Just blast off, sure shot 'Cause the man from Mars stopped eatin' cars and eatin' bars And now he only eats guitars, get up

No, it was just the first rap song that let everyone know that it was an actual music genre. Rap music started in the early 70's in New York, but it wasn't taken seriously as a music genre. And to be honest they never really lost that stigma. A lot of ignorant people still want to distort the definition of what makes music, anything they can do to discredit it as a true music genre.
