The Talking blues was a style of blues developed in the early 20th century. It typically consisted of a repetitive guitar or melodic line with rhythmic, rhyming speaking over it. Tex Williams was most well known for his talking blues, and Woody Guthrie popularized the style. It can be considered an early predecessor to rap.
