Everyone knows about the first ░░ commercially successful hip hop record, ôRappers Delightö by The ░░ Sugarhill Gang. That record is a multi-platinum single and an anthem for ░░ everything from roller rinks and discos at the time to weddings and class ░░ reunions today. ░░ ░░ What many people donÆt know about is the 30 or so other rap and Hip-Hop ░░ singles that followed before the start of the 1980s. Many of these were ░░ released on independent record labels based in New York and were produced ░░ by musicians and producers who spent the majority of their careers ░░ working with other genres such as R&B, Soul and Reggae. One of these ░░ producers and record label owners was reggae star Keeling Beckford. ░░ ░░ Beckford, known for his catalog of roots reggae and rocksteady dating ░░ back to the late 1960Æs, heard this new sound and wanted to get in on the ░░ ground floor of this musical phenomenon. From 1979-1984, Keeling ░░ Beckford produced and released a strong catalog of early Hip-Hop singles ░░ on a variety of small, independent labels that he owned. In the first 5 ░░ years of hip hop being a recorded genre, the sound changed drastically, ░░ from live bands playing disco style music for the emcees to rhyme over to ░░ a more electronic, synthesizer based sound. ░░ ░░ As you listen to Rap City In Dub, Vol. 2 you can hear these changes ░░ between songs like 1979Æs ôAnd You Know Thatö to 1983Æs ôWeÆre Chillyö. ░░ Previously reserved for the serious record collector who took the time ░░ (and often spent a great deal of money to obtain these original records), ░░ Rap City In Dub, Vol. 2 now makes these groundbreaking songs available ░░ for the first time to a wide audience. Please enjoy this audible walk ░░ through the beginnings of a genre that would go on to change the music ░░ industry as we know it forever. ░░ ░░█ ░░███ ░█ ░░░░██ █▓█ ████░ ░░░░░██ y o o v e e y o o █████ █████ ░░░░░░██ g o t t h e ▒████░ ██▒▒██ ░░░░░░░█ ░ ██▓██ ▓█▒██ ░░░░░░░█ ███ ███ ███ ███ ███ ████ ▒▓███ ▒███ ░░░░░░░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ █░█ █░█ ░███████ ████░ ░███ ░░░░░░░█ ░███░███░█ █░███░███ █████████▒ █████ ██ ░░░░░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░░░█ ██████████████ █████ █ ░░░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ██████████████████ ████▓ ░░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ████████████████████▒ ░░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ▓██████▒▒▒▒███████░ ░░░██ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ▓█████▒███████████ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ █████▒▒░████████ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░█ ██▓██▒██▓███▒ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░█ █░█ ░░░█ ██████████ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ░░░█ ░█ ░█ █░███░█ ░███ ▒███████ /─────────────────────────\ ░░░██ ███ ░| learned from vets |░ ░░░░██ ████ ░| and they |░ ░░░░░██ █████ ░| ain't pet doctors |░ ░░░░░░███ ████▒ \─────────────────────────/ ░░░░░░░▓▓█████████████▒ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ https://www.deezer.com/us/album/127771662
