As hard as it is to believe now in the late 80s most rap acts had dancers. Everyone knows or should know that Whodini was the first rap group to fully integrate dancers into their stage shows (Using Dr Ice and Kango Kid in their pre-UTFO days) From the Fresh Prince and Dj Jazzy Jeff to Heavy D and the Boyz etc the dancers were part of the act. Even some of the hardest acts out like Kool G Rap whom no one would confuse with a "dancing type" of MC had dancers. Here is a roll call of a few MCs/Groups that had dancers and some visual aid in the form of videos
