Description
There is numerous proof of black americans rhyming syncopated to a beat since the 1920s, from the Blues guys down to the Gospel choirs. What make Pigmeat stand out is that he was rapping over a Funk backing aka "breakbeat" in 1968 which would be exactly what we would see and hear, in HipHop, later on in the 1970s/early 1980s
