Biography

Hip-hop trio Run-DMC were one of the most commercially and critically successful hip-hop acts of the 80s, and are credited by many as helping to popularise the then-underground genre. Run-DMC were the first rap act with a Top 5 single ("Walk This Way"), platinum ("King Of Rock") and multi-platinum ("Raising Hell") albums, the first rappers to appear on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine, and the… Read more in Amazon's Run D.M.C.

5.0 out of 5 stars ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!! WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT?, March 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Raising Hell (Audio CD)

This album really set it off in a major way back in the era of 1986-87. Everybody who's currently a fan of Bad Boy and No Limit needs to check out this album for some true school originality. Now that Dee, Run, and Jay have been signed by Arista Records, they have a new album due out this year- Their back catalog was also picked up by Arista- and it's bound to be re-released!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars If you dis RUN DMC, you dissin' hip hop., June 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Raising Hell (Audio CD)

I think that "Raising Hell" by RUN DMC should be a part of everybody's musical library, especially if you are into hip hop. They were the pioneers of mainstream hip hop because they took rap music to that next level where it would be appreciated by all walks of life. From the streets of Harlem and Brooklyn to Long Beach, without Run-DMC, rap music probably would have taken a much harder road to where it is today. This album started it all for me and for millions of other fans! Keep it real!!
