ffs. jackhammer you know as well as I do that hip-hop's emergence in the world might have been crafted from a menagerie of styles but it was largely the work of american artists to bear its fruit...

Of course it was but the simple fact of the matter is that Talking (toasting-Rapping) happened over dubplates in jamacian soundsystems to which America always seems to completely ignore with the emergence of rap. Many tracks were specifically created for this purpose. Of course it was completely modified an essentially completely honed by america but I like people to hear about the history too as it seems to have been swept under the carpet.
