Which is often considered to be the first recorded rap, and the first commercial released rap single that marked the beginning of the rap industry. Before Dr Dre's group the World Class Wreckin' Cru, Electro funk, and Electro-hop existed. The band, is also credited for the performance they did at CSUB "California State University of Bakersfield," called "Hey Deejay..Were You Playin With Em," and for the "Jamaican tour" they did in Montego Bay as members of the "Jamaicans Musicians Union," with international Jamaican, Rocksteady, and ska stars such as Freddie McGregor, and Judy Mowatt in the late 1970s.The band is also credited, and famous for the early rap music they did on the west coast with the first west coast rap group based in Los Angeles, California called "Dark Star," formerly known (as "The Rappers Rapp Group"), during the 1980s.

The "Black Diamonds," "Uncle Famous," "Reach," and "Sweet Smoke," are often compared to each other and credited by locals in the community for being "active musicians" or "active bands" that played a major role in Bakersfield, and Kern County's African American music history.".
