It’s going to be tough crediting an inventor, but the first rap song to make it to mainstream radio was probably Rapper’s Delight by The Sugarhill Gang.

So maybe that’s a yes.

Yakub invented white people, so all white inventions are due to a black mind. Das rite.



quote:

Yakub (sometimes spelled Yacub or Yaqub) is a figure in the mythology of the Nation of Islam (NOI). According to the NOI's doctrine, Yakub was a black scientist who lived 6,600 years ago and began the creation of the white race through a form of selective breeding, referred to as "grafting", while he was living on the island of Patmos.

Even that took the brilliance of a few white men(Lyor Cohen, Rick Rubin, Beastie boys) to get going in popular culture.


Once Blondie put out Rapture, the genre was set imho.

Planet Rock was the next song that I remember that was kind of “ground breaking” for a rap song.

They lie for black people. Think about it like this; if blacks were inventors, why is Africa still a shithole with people starving?


If we are being honest, name one city or country in the world run by blacks that isn't a sh*thole? I mean, Haiti used to be the bread basket of the carribean when France had it.

Black inventions

Why are black people given credit for so many things they didn't really invent?

Who is giving them credit other than themselves??

I read one where they invented GPS or something. I looked a little into it and there was a black lady the figured something out. So essentially helping with a piece equals full invented.
