Rappin' Rodney
Rappin' Rodney is a comedy album by American comedian Rodney Dangerfield issued by RCA Records in 1983.[1] The title track is a rap-influenced novelty song co-written by J.B. Moore and Robert Ford Jr.; the same songwriters who worked with Kurtis Blow on "The Breaks". Dennis Blair co-wrote the song. The accompanying music video, which includes cameos from Pat Benatar and Don Novello (as Father Guido Sarducci),[2] was played heavily on MTV at the time of release. The rest of the album consists of live stand-up comedy under the titles "Rodney Rappin'" and "Rodney Continues Rappin'", recorded live at Catch a Rising Star, in New York City. The song peaked at number 83 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart.[3] It soon earned Dangerfield a nomination for the Grammy Award for Best Comedy Recording.[4] Track listingSide A
