I hate that rap from the late 80s gets over shadowed due to the genre becoming a mainstream commodity during the 90s.
Just look at the outfits and style Big Daddy Kane was sporting back then. I'd club an animated baby seal to look that smooth for a day or two.
Kane's influence on future rappers is undeniable.

@Hobyrim Amen to 80s rap. I end up listening to Drag Rap at least a couple of times a day. #Triggaman

@researchbuzz also, I swear at 2:50 in, it looks like they were doing part of the Macarena years before it was even a thing. 😂
