Preceding Ice-T

     The very first rapper preceded 
       Ice-T by aeons and eons

     Though his rap-a-tap-tap
       never earned him lights in neon

     Humbly plying his trade in forests far
       from billionaire rapper stars

     The woodpecker taps out his tune on trees
       ~ at times nearby, have a look-see

Ha ha, he was rapping and tapping away. Woody woodpecker is known in the bird world as a famous rapper. The first one. Another part of history that was left out... lol...
