This is an example of non-hip hop group that produced a song that became part of the hip hop heritage.

The group’s song “Rapture” from the 1980 album “Autoamerican” featured a rap from lead singer Debbie Harry where she mentions both Fab 5 Freddy and Grandmaster Flash.

Fab 5 shows up in the video doing some fake graffiti in the background.  The song was hugely successful in both the US and UK.
