Hey bro, four years after your comment I’m now 58, and I memorized this entire rap when it came out during my senior year in high school. We used to play it during our track meets and it lit a fire in us!!

[@deejay8403]

Also, after 40 years, I finally know what Big Bank Hank was saying in his interlude: “See it’s up my back, it’s around my neck *hoohah* got you all in check.” All the time before, I thought he was saying: “She had sucked my back it’s around my neck.” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@VenturaIT]

Where does the synth trumpet sample come from? Is it original?

[@camberup9176]

Back when music was fun and indivisible.

I’m 57 and every time I hear this song(FAVORITE by Sugarhill Gang)my mind instantly goes back to Christmas 1980. I was 14 with my sister/aunt and friend Vernell.After a visit with my grandmother we were headed back to DC on the bus with a boombox I got from my grandma for Christmas………. Let’s just say this song came on and we were the ONLY THREE on that LONG ride since it was just 1 bus that ran every TWO hours so basically a “round trip” and we got on it cuz we were soooo COLD. My sister/aunt and I were dancing up and down the aisle to this having a BALL 🎉🥳💃🏽💃🏽and the bus driver let us while he laughed and just drove that A12…the GOOD OLE DAYS that I MISS so bad. R.I.E.P Eileen and Vernell 🙏🏽🙏🏽🕊️🕊️♥️❣️♥️

[@SavageSlugg8027]

Why is this song so f****ing good

[@catboyzee]

This track was so hooky; from the horn arrangement to the 'Woohah'!!! This wasn't just a great Hip Hop record, it was simply a great record period. Respect and RIP to Henry 'Big Bank Hank' Jackson.

[@BenjaminMedina-x7d]

I'm 56 and this is stilly favorite song. We had these songs to end up to swearing degrading our women and thinking selling drugs and gang life is where is supposed to be.

On this day in 1981 {May 16th} the Sugarhill Gang performed "8th Wonder" on the nationally syndicated television program, 'Soul Train'... Ten weeks earlier it had peaked at #15 {for 1 week} on Billboard's Hot Soul Singles chart... Between 1979 and 1983 the New Jersey group had seven records on the Hot Soul Singles chart, one made the Top 10, "Rapper's Delight", it peaked at #4 {for 2 weeks} on November 25th, 1979... Besides the above two records, their five other charted records were "Apache" {#53 in 1981}, "Showdown"* {#49 in 1981}, "The Lover in You" {#55 in 1982}, "The Word Is Out" {#71 in 1983}, and "Kick It Live from 9 to 5" b/w "The Lover in You" {#50 in 1983}... R.I.P. Don Cornelius {1936 - 2012}... * The record label for "Showdown" read 'The Furious Five Meet The Sugarhill Gang'...

I think that some props should also go out to Alabama group 7th Wonder for their song ”Daisy Lady”, which is creating the hook that this gem is resting on. Which also explains the title. Enjoy... kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKuUpWqJpd-tocU

Now lemme say, this is when rap made sense. No lude content, no cussing. just straight-up good rap dance music that still lives on to this very day. But these young cats today, have no clue. They need to step back and listen to the creators and founders of Rap. That's right, it's the Sugarhill Gang, followed by Kurtis Blow. But this will never get old. Last night I was bumpin' this in my car to the gas station and these young cats came up and stopped and was bobbin' they heads and then asked, "who is that?" I said, "awww yeah, you like that huh?" "This The Sugarhill gang." And immediately dude was lookin' it up on his phone. Simply sayin', "this will neva get old!" Holla... I'll holla.....!
