When we get older usually or music choices change and when we were all teenagers few older generation liked younger generation music choices. Just the way it is.

The subject was the first #1 hit rapper song. I don’t think rapper delight made it to number 1 on the charts? It did make it on hot 100 chart but fas as I know not number 1?
