The Song Historian on Instagram: "In the early 1940s, a gospel group called The Jubalaires recorded songs that many historians now recognize as proto-rap, decades before hip-hop had a name. Tracks like Noah and God Almighty featured rapid-fire spoken rhythms, complex rhyme patterns, and call-and-response delivery that closely resemble modern rap flows, all performed over minimal musical backing.

The Jubalaires History
The first rap song in history! The song Noah by The Jubalaires is recognized as one of the earliest recorded examples of rap like vocal delivery. Recorded in the mid 1940s, the track retells the biblical story of Noah using tight harmonies mixed with rhythmic, spoken phrasing that feels surprisingly modern.

The Jubalaires’ 1946 recording “Noah” is often cited as one of the earliest rap-like performances ever recorded. Long before hip-hop, the group used fast, rhythmic, spoken vocals over tight harmonies — a flow that sounds strikingly modern for its era. 👏 Drop a comment if you think they were ahead of their time?. #musichistory #hiphoporigins #pasthistoryhub #fyp
