Godfathers of Hip Hop, the Sugar Hill Gang, are one of the genre's most revered icons. They attained superstardom with the first and biggest Hip Hop hit record of all time Rappers Delight, and on the 27th May they are playing live at one of Liverpool's leading venues, The Masque.
The Sugar Hill Gang’s brand new stage show will feature hit after hit spanning the group's entire career, belting out the chart topping classic Rappers Delight and the latest hit record La La Song.
The band will play a stunning live show, featuring each band member on instruments and the incredible singer Rob Temple (the very first recording artist on Jive Records). The set also includes a crowd-pleasing Michael Jackson tribute.
The Sugar Hill Gang's Wonder Mike, Master Gee and Big Bank Hank (now replaced by Hen Dog) scored the first and most popular Hip Hop single of all time in 1979 -Rappers Delight.
It single-handedly influenced and inspired the Rap and Hip-Hop movements, opening the doors to one of the most powerful and popular styles of popular music.
Rappers Delight was the first Rap song to be played on the radio and TV, exposing millions of people to a new and exciting style of music which originated in the Bronx, becoming one of the biggest hits in music history.
Support comes from Liverpool's finest hip hop boys The Elementals and Nicky Talent & Innuendo who won the Masque's competition to support the legendary Sugar Hill Gang.
The night will also feature DJ sets from Santero as well as a special appearance from PeteBox. This will make for a hip hop night to remember.
