It was originally called disco rap. B-Boys and B-Girls started shouting out over disco breaks, which eventually led to rhyming over disco breaks. This is why MCs had a rapid flow when reciting lyrics. The rhythm of the rhyme had to match the rhythm of the music.
This is before drum machines and drum kits, just a dj, two turntables and a MC rhyming over breaks.
As rhyming progressed and music technology became more advanced, hip hop artists started programming beats to have a boom bap sound , and slowed the tempo of the beat. With the invention of the TR-808, Hip hop developed a signature sound.
Basically, sounds just graduated from one phase to another as hip hop evolved.
I would advise you to study and research the beginning of rhyming, so you can get a better understanding of how rhyming started, and who were the TRUE pioneers.
