Sure. No doubt Blondie made a brave and early exercise in the, then exotic, rap genre... and they managed to add a distinct flavor beyond the standard synthpop. To be honest, I enjoy this song greatly, from the moment the bells start ringing until the end, and felt that it couldn't be missing in our 80's playlist. Besides, for rap pioneers, Blondie was probably a gateway to the mainstream later in the decade.
