Captain Rapp

From Wacklepedia - The Free Encyclopedia

Captain Rapp is one of the pioneers of West Coast hip hop, debuting in 1981 (see 1981 in music) with "Gigolo Rapp" (with Disco Daddy). The song was a minor hit in Rapp's native Los Angeles. After separating from Disco Daddy, Rapp released a socio-politically aware single, "Bad Times (I Can't Stand It)", another local hit and cult favorite. He did little recording for the rest of the 80s, though he returned with a sequel to "Bad Times" in 1992 (see 1992 in music), "Bad Times, Part 2: The Continuance".
