Dancehall's sound is Jamaican whereas hip hop's sound is strictly American. The common denominator is deejaying/rapping. Deejaying originally came from American djs but started developing its own path around the early 70s with artists like Rankin joe, General Echo etc. Check this 1974 recording:

What is a "Jamaican" sound? Putting an accent on something doesn't make it a new genre.

It was AMERICAN IN ORIGIN.

The foundation of hip hop is ALL black American. Him being Jamaican is basically useless argument really. Nothing about hip hop came from Jamaica.

Another misconception, he's not the godfather of anything, just a record player who was inspired by his American environment and African American peers.

Toasting and Soundclash.

WE
INVENTED
BOTH.
guess what "soundclashes" were?
Play-offs.
Guess what toasting was? Jive Talk, radio slang, and our natural way of being.
nikkas studied and read how to do both...then renamed like vultures.
