Not to be confused with the AAA album Eighth Wonder (album).
1981 studio album by the Sugarhill Gang
8th Wonder is the second album by the American rap group the Sugarhill Gang. The album was released in 1981 for Sugar Hill Records and was again produced by Sylvia Robinson and James Cullimore. Though not as successful as the group's previous album, the album did feature the minor hits "8th Wonder" and "Apache" and featured an appearance by another Sugar Hill Records rap group, Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five on "Showdown".
Commercial performance
The album debuted at number 66 on Billboard's Soul LPs chart on January 16, 1982.
The Globe and Mail advised: "Don't expect anything new—there's still a lot of stuff about how great it is to be a member of The Sugarhill Gang and how the ladies fall for it." Robert Christgau noted that "professional is as good as they get, and in the absence of vaguely interesting words the singing tracks are funktional dance music at best."
