so, it's a tie between Jazzy Sensation + Genius Rap

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

37. Sugarhill Gang: "Apache" (Sugarhill) 1
good work, singular voter

fair winner, great song, rather unanimous

and the beat goes on Ego Trip's Rap Singles 1982

Obviously "Ant Rap" and "Der Kommissar" were too good for the list. Of the two my vote would have gone to both of them. Adam Ant pioneered a hip-hop / world beat crossover approach that could so easily have been an alternative future for hip-hop and Falco of course invented gangster rap.
