I appreciate you support of my music and that you play it for your classes! Thanks for spreading the music! Yes, Litefoot is concerned with all things Litefoot and my first recording was, "The Money" which was released in 1992 and received a lot of airplay in Tulsa, OK on a station at that time called K-107 by a DJ named Rob Banks. It was also the song for which I won the first "Rap Search" in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1992. It was an E.P. and it was sold throughout the State of Oklahoma. "The Money" was also the name of my first tour, for which there was also a "The Money" tour t-shirt. The album was later absorbed into a project called the "Clown Kut's" which also included some of my first recordings in 1989. Hope this helps.Mrlitefoot 03:53, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well I guess that settles that--if "The Money" was a legit release then it beats Robbie B. by a year! I checked all my other CDs by TKO, Shadowyze, Natay, WOR, Julian B, et al., and they're all from after '93, maybe most or all of them inspired by your work. Even in the earliest days, there were actually a handful of rap tracks recorded before "Rapper's Delight," but they didn't get the airplay so nobody knows about them. Good luck with everything and keep adding info to the article. I checked out the radio show but I couldn't identify any of the artists listed as Native. Do you intersperse some in there?

First Native rapper

Is Litefoot himself now editing at this page? That's good! Regarding who was the first Native American rapper, I guess it can't be independently verified who was the first Native American to rap (I guess the first Native American to hear "Rapper's Delight" in 1979 and imitate it). But the question is who first recorded and performed. I had always thought, since Litefoot's first full-length (Seein' Red) was in 1994, that Robbie B. was the first, as his album Reservation of Education came out in 1993. But now this 1992 EP is listed, which would be the year before Robbie B.'s CD came out. I've never seen this EP anywhere and wonder if I could get hold of a copy, as that must be a very important document, the first professionally recorded/released Native American rap CD. By the way, what do you know of the date Robbie B. began rapping (I assume you know him personally), and are you certain that you were rapping before him?

I have played Litefoot's music for my world music classes every semester since 1998 (the song "My Land"). Thanks, Badagnani 19:46, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The page was embarrassingly much like a promo put out by a producer or publicist. With just a hand full of edits the article is now much less ridiculous. 75.48.38.184 (talk) 00:23, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Little bear.gif

Image:Little bear.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
