  Rapper's Delight - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
“Rapper’s Delight” is a 1979 single by American hip hop trio The Sugarhill Gang; it was one of the first hip hop hit singles.
The song was used in the final stages of an imaginative Honda commercial/advert, The Cog, in the United Kingdom in 2003/2004.
The strings and piano sections on "Rapper's Delight" sound so close to the original recording that some suggest portions of the track are in fact tape loops.

Thanks to the revitalization of disco in the late 1990's and several remakes (include one by a grandmother), the words "Now what you hear is not a test, I'm rappin' to the beat/ And me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try and move your feet/" are recognizable.

 WireTap Magazine - Rappers' Delight?
Instead of simply promoting fads like Lacoste shirts and Cristal, through their music, rappers are spreading their views on women to an audience of teenage boys larger than Fat Joe's waistline, and I feel the effects everywhere I go.
The truth, however, is that my tastes in hip-hop do not fall into simple categories, and although some of this music really does make me lose control, I love wilin' out to good rap as much as the next kid—there are numerous empowering female rap artists who continually impress me with their music.
But even my classification of some rappers isn't as simple as Lil' Romeo's lyrics; although the majority of his music is distasteful, I can't deny that Snoop's most popular hits make me want to keep the party going till six in the morning.

It seems that hip-hop is inherently self-referential but maybe the fact that rappers have now moved away from wanting to focus on the fact that they're, you know, rapping, is actually pushing it closer in line with most of popular music.

In September of 1979, "Rapper's Delight" was released and became the first hip hop single released on the Sugar Hill label, formed in New Jersey earlier in the year by former R&B singer Sylvia Robinson.
It became a classic of "old school" rap and would influence Run-DMC, who became the first national rap superstars in the early 1980s, and would record their own version of "Rapper's Delight" in 1994 for the 15th anniversary of the birth of rap music.
