Run D.M.C. music biography continued...
Joey Simmons (Run), the brother of the founder of Def Jam Records, his friend Darryl McDaniels (DMC), and another friend, Jason Mizell (Jam Master Jay). In 1983, Run-D.M.C. released their first single, "It's Like That"/"Sucker M.C.'s," on Profile Records. Critics said that the single sounded like no other rap at the time and that it was the first "new school" hip-hop recording. "It's Like That" became a Top 20 R&B hit, as did the group's second single, "Hard Times"/"Jam Master Jay." Two other hit R&B singles followed in early 1984 -- "Rock Box" and "30 Days" -- before the group's self-titled debut was released. By the time of their second album, 1985's fusion of rock and rap, King of Rock, Run-D.M.C. had become the most popular rappers in America. They broke into the mainstream with 1986's Raising Hell, a blend of rock and rap that included an enormously popular cover of Aerosmith's "Walk This Way." In the wake of the success of "Walk This Way," Raising Hell became the first rap album to reach number one on the R&B charts, to chart in the pop Top Ten, and to go platinum and Run-D.M.C. were the first rap act to receive airplay on MTV -- and the first rappers to cross over into the pop mainstream.
By the time Run-DMC released their next album, Tougher Than Leather, the rap listening public was no longer interested in crossover hits and started to look for groups that offered social and political commentary. After several personal setbacks and a conversion to born-again Christianity, the group came out with the album Down With the King, with a title track that became a Top Ten R&B hit. After a long studio hiatus, the trio returned in early 2000 with Crown Royal and in 2002 with a Greatest Hits album. The album prompted performances on MTV with Aerosmith, as well as a live tour. Tragically, after the tour ended, Jam Master Jay was murdered, signaling the end of an era in hip hop and the beginning of a period in which the genre would be haunted by crime and violence.
