I don't know... I guess that's fair, but there is DE LA SOUL, N.W.A. or BEASTIE BOYS... PUBLIC ENEMY or BIZ MARKIE!

Uh huh.

BUT, the boys were talking about later 80s Hip hop and that's why I cited the artists I did, contemporaries that all did a little bit of "saving".  The boys  were talking 'bout SAVING Rap not creating it.
