If you know your old-school rap history, then you know that the legendary Sugarhill Gang introduced Hip Hop to the world with the hit "Rapper's Delight." But the story you haven't heard is the shocking truth about how greed and betrayal led to the band's fall into obscurity. From chart-topping superstars to broke outcasts, band members Master Gee and Wonder Mike were left with almost nothing—not even their names. In their own words, this is the true and tragic story of the former original members of The Sugarhill Gang.
