Editing Rapper's Delight (section)

==Music videos==
The Sugar Hill Gang appeared on the syndicated Soap Factory Disco Show in late 1979, and their performance later became the song's official music video.<ref name="The Sugarhill Gang - Rapper's Delight (Official Video)">{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcCK99wHrk0|title=Sugarhill Gang - Rapper's Delight|website=[[YouTube]] |date=August 24, 2015 |access-date=April 7, 2019}}</ref> The group's performance on the [[Palisades Park, New Jersey|Palisades Park]]-based program demonstrates the significant overlap between early hip-hop and disco of the late 1970s.

Alternate music videos exist as well.
