No.

Reggae is Jamaican, however Jamaicans are the ones to start the rap movement the first hip hop DJ was Jamaican, DJ kool herc and he was influenced by other Jamaican DJs/singers such as uroy that would talk and sing to records in a raping fashion ADDED Jamaican hip hop on the Island is often referred to as "Dancehall" Hip Hop with an electronic sampling element is a feature of "Ragga" The first real rap recording (according to some and we still argue about it) would be "The Revolution Will Not Be Televized" by Gill Scott Heron, New York City 1966

What generally accepted as the first rap commercial hit?

Rap is sometimes thought of as an evolution from the 'toasting' style favoured by Jamaican DJs. Also James Brown claimed he invented it. Some say the work of 1950s beat poets can sound uncannily like rap. However, rap was invented by none of these, because the first commercially successful rap performance was by Avant Garde English Poet Dame Edith Sitwell when she performed her rhythmic-based poetry to the music of Sir William Walton live on stage in 1922 in their production of Façade. Façade was recorded in 1954, making it the first commercially successful rap record.
