Run DMC Raising Hell 12 Inches

If you can think of a more important group to Hip-Hop culture than Run DMC then please let me know. Run DMC is THE greatest Rap group of all time and here are all the 12"s from THE greatest Hip-Hop album of all time - Raising Hell. It was this group and this album that turned me into the Hip-Hop junkie I am. Jam Master Jay R.I.P.

BONUS Run DMC:

This is a youtube favorite of the one and only airing of Graffiti Rock back in 1984. Run DMC performs "Sucker MC's" and then has a fake battle against Kool Moe Dee and Special K. This shit is so watered down for TV it's almost funny, and dope at the same time.

Treats #22 - Beastie Boys & Run DMC Live '87

This is a super drunken recording of the Beastie Boys 'Licenced To Ill Tour' live in Los Angeles at the Hollywood Palladium on Feb 7th 1987. This was the height of the "Fight For Your Right To Party" era when the Beasties would get super drunk and completely bug out like a bunch of frat boys. What made this show extra dope was that the Beastie Boys brought out Run DMC as surprise guests. The sound quality is pretty doo dooish due to bootleg recording technologies in 1987 not being very advanced, but the recording is still very listenable.

2 Turntables & A Microphone (Jam Master Jay)

This is the trailer to a movie about the life and death of Jam Master Jay. I can't wait to se this. This is how the film makers describe their movie 2 Turntables and a Microphone...

Legendary hip-hop DJ Jason Mizell, aka Jam Master Jay, is gunned down in his Queens studio. Security tapes of the incident mysteriously disappear, the five witnesses are uncooperative and no one is talking... until now.

2 TURNTABLES AND A MICROPHONE documents the investigation of the unsolved murder of Jam Master Jay, RUN DMC's groundbreaking DJ and producer, deftly revealing the history of hip-hop and mainstream rap along the way. Exclusive, candid interviews with Jay-Z, Russell Simmons, RUN DMC, Method Man and more offer insight into Jam Master Jay's life - including information that could finally help police solve the murder that shook the music world to its core.

BONUS: Jam Master Jay spinning live at some party somewhere.

U.N.I. "Kicks Rule Everything"

I like kicks.

I'm not sure if I like songs exclusively about kicks though.

Although, the beat is super fresh.

Not as fresh as my deadstock black and red AJ4's.

U.N.I. "K.R.E.A.M."
