About Playlist
Hip-hop was born 50 years ago, when DJ Kool Herc invented ‘breaks’ with his turntables on August 11, 1973 during a memorable party in the Bronx. But it wasn't until 1979 that the first rap song hit the radio with the release of ‘Rapper's Delight’ by the Sugar Hill Gang on September 16, 1979. While the authorship of the very first hip-hop single is still debated - others cite The Fatback Band's ‘King Tim III’ released on 25th March of the same year, which does indeed include rap verses but remains more funky in its form. 1979 was a starting point for a genre that would continue to grow over the years. This playlist invites you to travel through the history of hip-hop in chronological order, highlighting one track per year from 1979 to the present day, and featuring some pre-hip-hop tracks from Pigmeat Markham, Watts Prophets, Gil Scott-Heron, The Last poets and DJ Grand Wizard Theodore, artists who laid the foundations of this genre.
