Najik - yes a few people have told me that the first Rap song to hit Pop charts (mainstream) was none other than "Blondie" also known as "Debbie Harry" and it was the song "Rapture" back in 1980?. She had hits back as far as the mid. 1970's??
Then another said it was the song "Amadeus"??
I haven't seen any facts on these statements but the people who told me this were all music\art people.
I figured I'd ask here on the music board to see if it's true.
