MUSIC REVIEW & RECORD COLLECTOR NOTES
&keywordsSylvia Robinson's Sugarhill label signed Grand Master Flash even though he was quoted as saying "The Sugarhill who?..." when he first heard "Rappers Delight."
"The Message" and "White Lines" would become Grand Master Flash's pivotal songs. It forever changed the face of Rap and brought on the likes of Public Enemy...
"White Lines" was later covered by Duran Duran.

Think back, 1983, WHITE LINES!!! Huge, HUGE HIT!! There were many WHITE LINES on top of bars, top of tables and in deejay booths when WHITE LINES was playing! COCAINE!! South Florida loved it, and loved this song!! On my scale from 1-10, of course it gets a TEN!!
