Our Take

Ah, the legendary Run DMC, the kings of rock, back with a bang in this reissue of their iconic album on translucent red vinyl.

From the moment the needle drops, you're transported back to the golden era of hip-hop, where Run, DMC, and Jam Master Jay ruled the scene with their infectious rhymes and electrifying beats.

The title track, "King of Rock," sets the tone for the entire album - a bold declaration of their dominance in the music world. The energy is palpable, the swagger undeniable.

Tracks like "Can You Rock It Like This" and "You Talk Too Much" showcase the group's versatility, blending elements of rock and rap in a way that only Run DMC can pull off.

The production is top-notch, with slick samples and tight drum loops that provide the perfect backdrop for Run and DMC's rapid-fire delivery.

But what really sets this album apart is the feeling of camaraderie and friendship that oozes from every track. You can sense the chemistry between the three members, their bond as strong as ever.

So, grab a cold beverage, turn up the volume, and lose yourself in the music of the kings of rock. You won't regret it.

About the artist

Run-D.M.C.

Ah, do you remember the days when hip-hop was just a baby on the music scene, finding its feet and making noise in the streets of New York City? Well, look no further than the pioneering trio RUN DMC, who not only helped shape the sound of a generation but also left an indelible mark on the world of music. Run DMC, consisting of Joseph Simmons (Run), Darryl McDaniels (DMC), and Jason Mizell (Jam Master Jay), burst onto the scene in the early 1980s with their raw, unapologetic brand of rap that blended rock and hip-hop in a way that had never been done before. With hits like "It's Tricky" and "Walk This Way" (featuring Aerosmith), the group quickly became known for their signature style of rap-rock fusion that revolutionised the genre. But it wasn't just their music that set them apart – it was their fashion sense, too. Who could forget the iconic Adidas tracksuits and classic shell-toe sneakers that became synonymous with the group? RUN DMC didn't just make music; they made a statement with their bold, no-frills approach to style. Despite the tragic loss of Jam Master Jay in 2002, the legacy of RUN DMC lives on, with their influence still being felt in the world of hip-hop today. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to their sound, one thing is for sure – there's no denying the impact that RUN DMC has had on the music industry. So lace up your Adidas and turn up the volume, because the kings of rock are here to stay.
