Rappers Rapp Disco Co.

The Rappers Rapp Disco Record Co. (also known as Rappers Rapp Records) was based in Hollywood, California and founded in 1981 by Duffy Hooks III & Jerry Hooks Sr. It is currently run by Lee "DJ Flash" Johnson. The label's first release was "The Gigolo Rapp" by Disco Daddy & Captain Rapp. After this release Duffy held auditions in Los Angeles for a second act to be called The Rappers Rapp Group, the group eventually consisted of five of L.A's top rappers MC Fosty, Lovin C, King MC, Macker-Moe, Mr Ice and DJ Flash from Taft California. Their first release was "Rappers Rapp Theme" in 1982. One year later later Rich Cason published "Year 2001 Boogie" on Rappers Rapp. With this record the style changed from the typical old school rap to a electronic wave sound with vocoders and rap. Rich Cason had a major influence on the following releases "Magic Mike Theme" and "Radio Activity Rapp" "Killer Groove" & "Bad Times (I Can't Stand it)". Later, in 1986, the Brothers Supreme released the West Coast classic "We Can't Be Held Back" on the Rappers Rapp label.
