By marrying the emerging rap sound to a distorted electric guitar, "Rock Box" made the connection between rap and rock, and launched Run-DMC on the road to stardom. Their middle class backgrounds differed from the ghetto roots of rap, yet they took rap to the top of the charts within a few years.
The sparse backing tracks made the declamatory vocal style of Run and DMC jump off the album, and their love of rock sounds gave them hooks that made the white audience notice. Joseph "Run" Simmons' effortless style brought much respect in the rap community, and the groups' "look" (matching Adidas sweatsuits and footwear) added to the impact of their arrival.
RUN-DMC is a collection of the group's early singles, some of which were hits on the R&B charts ("It's Like That," "Hard Times" and "Rock Box").

Run-Dmc (1st LP) CD music
$7.69 After bringing their high-energy and innovative style and sound to the masses with RAISING HELL, RUN-DMC returned with a fabulous follow-up to that ground-breaking album.

Run-Dmc (1st LP) music CDs
$7.59 Though RUN-DMC's follow-up to KING OF ROCK, RAISING HELL, would propel the trio to worldwide fame, KING OF ROCK was a glimpse of things to come. With the rock guitars of "King of Rock," RUN-DMC was laying the groundwork for the classic cover of Aerosmith's "Walk This Way." One of the first rap videos to go into full rotation on MTV, "King of Rock" has become a classic song and one of RUN-DMC's signature phrases. KING OF ROCK also includes "Rock the House," "You Talk too Much," and "Can You Rock It Like This." In its lyrical and musical lexicon, the album bears the sheen of the time in which it was produced--KING OF ROCK is all about two MCs telling their fans why they're rap royalty.
Take the title of Run-D.M.C.'s King of Rock somewhat literally. True, the ...

$8.99 Rap music may have been making some headway in terms of mainstream acceptance by 1986, but it was the release and breakthrough of Run DMC's cover of Aerosmith's "Walk This Way" that cemented the deal. Rap was out of the urban ghetto and into the white, hard rock suburbs. And Run DMC was the perfect band to initialize the natural crossover, being among the first of ...
