The Sugarhill Gang is a pioneering hip hop group from Englewood, New Jersey, best known for their groundbreaking 1979 single "Rapper's Delight." This track became the first rap song to enter the top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 36. While their major success in the United States was limited to this hit, they continued to enjoy popularity in Europe during the early 1980s. The group reunited in 1994 and later launched a world tour in 2016.
