african music (the continent) is very percussive with very "rappish" spoken word lyrics. also, those old beatniks and their spoken word "raps" over bongos in the 50's/60's. i dont think hip hop has one point of origin. thats why when you answer the question "who is the most influential rapper", there are numerous correct answers.
