The Asylum Street Spankers recorded an original they called "Hick Hop" back in 1997. This version is from 2008 and is relevant because Wammo (the singer) says basically everything you said in your post, as an intro to song. https://asylumstreetspankers.bandcamp.com/track/hick-hop It's also just a funny track.
Yep. Exactly. Rolling Stone declares Patient Zero to be the Bellamy Brothers' "Country Rap" To place it amongst its contemporaries, 1986 in Rap was pretty much the beginning. It's fair to say that country and hip hop were always going to come together, it just took 30 years for the crackers to get over their loathing of the darkies.
