Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Run-D.M.C. were a Hip Hop group from Hollis, in the Queens borough of New York City. They have been widely acknowledged as The Beatles of Hip Hop, being one of the greatest rap groups in history. Run-D.M.C. have bought into their sound harder, grittier elements than the other bands of their day. They bought in a street attitude in their style with the jeans, sneakers, fedoras and black leather jackets. Unlike other Hip Hop groups who sampled Funk and Disco records, they instead sampled noisy keyboards, industrial sounds, and most prominently Rock guitar, paving the way for the big Rap Rock movement of the nineties. They famously collaborated with Aerosmith to remix their song "Walk This Way", which was a huge hit, bringing Aerosmith back into popularity, and bought Run-D.M.C. acceptance with white music fans, when Hip Hop was previously a "fad" among black people. |
