No Blondie did not invent rap.However they were among the first to recognize it.They saw it as a force to be reckoned with.Eventually,the world caught on...

First 'real' rap was Gil Scott Heron-"The Revolution Will Not be Televised". Suger Hill's "Rapper's Delight" wasn't mainstream in the sense that it was widely seen, liked and accepted by white middle class suburbanites. That's all this particular video did.

@DallasVocals OK debbie harry is hot...I love the song...but the first rap video was in 1965... over 45 years ago. Do a search for bob dylan subterranean homesick blues video original

no, no, no...the original rap tune on mainstream is and always will be Aerosmith's Walk This Way...circa...1976-78
