It's not the hip-hop of the discos

from Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde – Genius Rap Lyrics on Rap Genius

Promoters were concerned that the “DISCO SUCKS” movement would deter people from buying rap records, as rap was also faddish and played at clubs and associated with deep funk grooves (in fact this is how the name “hip-hop” came to be, as a means to brand future rap singles without the pejorative connotations of rap… as lame and outdated)
