Description
D-Lo & KC spend a few minutes discussing Kanye West and his White Lives Matter fashion show in Paris.
How did Rappers Delight come to be? Often sighted as the first rap record ever recorded (it wasn't), the song has a place in history, an important place but there's a lot to this story. Is Sylvia Robinson a villian? Did Big Bank Hank steal an opportunity from the Cold Crush Brothers? Is this real rap music? D-Lo & KC attempt to answer these questions and many more on this episode of Corners of the Culture.
