Double Dutch Bus, Planet Rock, Egyptian Lover, etc...
The Message changed all of that.
It's like running around telling everyone Rosa Parks wasn't the first woman to NOT move from her seat. While true, it's just not that big of a deal when you look at the big picture.
If we stayed on that hippity, hop, bop, da diggity beat, style of rap... who the hell knows if rap would still be around.
