indeed since 1978 the original LA rappers were performing at clubs and party scene BUT i think of it as proto rap because like rob said, a lot of it waas still as much disco and funk as much as it was rap. Egyptian Lover came out in 84, and while it was a huge part of early LA rap, indeed On The Nile with Egypt, Egypt is more or less the Beatles British Invasion of LA rap, it influenced EVERYBODY... but that record still sounds as much a funk record as anything
