  1. Your Answer:

    Well, Rappers Delight wasn't the first, there are lots of songs that are considered the first hip-hop songs being recorded like King Tim III by Fatback Band or We Rap More Mellow by Grandmaster Flash, and also in rock there are lots of songs, but the most important are:

    Louis Jordan - Caldonia (1945)

    Joe Liggins - The Honeydripper (1945)

    Wynonie Harris - Good Rockin' Tonight (1947)

    The Orioles - It's Too Soon To Know (1948)

    Fats Domino - The Fat Man (1949)

    Jackie Brenston - Rocket 88 (1951)

    Big Mama Thornton - Hound Dog (1952)

    Bill Haley - Rock Around the Clock (1954)

    Elvis Presley - That's All Right (1954)

    Bo Diddley - Bo Diddley (1955)

    Chuck Berry - Maybellene (1955)

    Little Richard - Tutti Frutti (1955).

    Carl Perkins - Blue Suede Shoes (1955)

    Lonnie Donegan - Rock Island Line (1955)

    Cliff Richard - Move IT (1958)

    Rock wasn't born one day


  2. I don't know what the first Rock song was, but the first Rock band was Bill Haley and the Comets.  I hope that helps clarify some things.

    EDIT: Percy, I bet you would like an asian guy to suck your p***s.  I mean, I bet your greatest hobby is reading hentai all day.

  3. Rockin' Rollin' Mama" by Buddy Jones, a 12-bar blues played in Western swing style by a white country singer and his band, including Moon Mullican on piano, featuring the following lines:

    Waves on the ocean, waves in the sea,

    But that gal of mine rolls just right for me

    Rockin' rollin' mama, I love the way you rock and roll

    You ease my troubled mind and pacify my weary soul"

  4. I really dont think that it was the FIRST song lol

  5. Maybe some Fats Domino?

    from 1949 i think

  6. Rocket 88 by Ike Turner is credited to being the first rock song.

  7. THE FRIST RAPS WHERE FROM A GROUP CALLED THE LAST POETS!!!

  8. I agree with previous entry about Bill Haley and the Comets, the song would be "Rock Around the Clock"

  9. Fats Domino claims that his 1949 song The Fat Man was the first. Rapper's Delight was neither the first rap song nor the first successful one, but that's a common misconception.

  10. Rocket 88 in 1951 by Jackie Benson Was the very first R-n-R song.
