Subject: Fave Rap/Hip Hop Songs of the 80's
Written By: eightiesfan on 01/12/05 at 12:55 pm
I vote for 'Walk This Way' (which I think deserves as much airplay as the original version), 'Wipeout' (a guilty pleasure of mine from the movie Disorderlies), and 'Push It', although I like all of these songs. :)

Rapture because I liked Blondie.
Walk This Way was written by Aerosmith thus they have top billing. It should read Aerosmith with Run DMC
Wild Thing by Ton Loc....I love it because he stole the drum intro of Van Halens "Jamie's Crying" and lost quite a bit of money for it ;D

Rapper's Delight..an all-time fave of mine..my sister got the last copy in the city and knelt by our stereo putting the needle back on the record a thousand times to get every word to the long version written down ...great to rollerskate to back in the day and still a great song to dance to now..
My others are The Message and Bust A Move tied with Tone Loc's two :)

The only rap I liked from the 80s was "Goin' Back To Cali" and I don't remember who the artist was.
