Captain Rapp
Rapp is an old school rapper, famed for Badd Times (I Can't Stand It), a Los Angeles answer to The Message (complete with Chic stylings). He grew up with LA's Uncle Jam's Army, where he fought to earn a slice of the microphone action. He was transported over to New York to little effect, and subsequent record deals never happened. However, Badd Times (released on Saturn in 1983) remains a keynote in the development of West Coast rap.
