https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bo_Diddley_beat

Quote:

Prior to Bo Diddley's self-titled song, the rhythm occurred in 13 rhythm and blues songs recorded between 1944 and 1955, including two by Johnny Otis from 1948.[11] In 1944, "Rum and Coca Cola", containing the beat, was recorded by the Andrews Sisters[5] and in 1952, a song with similar syncopation, "Hambone", was recorded by Red Saunders' Orchestra with the Hambone Kids.

Later, the beat was included in many songs composed by artists other than Bo Diddley:
