Definitely one of the BEST Hip Hop Albums Apr 28, 2009
I do not own this particular version of "King of Rock". My first exposure was in '84 when my boy had the cassette. We played the hell out of it. I was still new to rap, being from TX. Fast forward to '86 after "Raising Hell" came out, I had to own all Run-DMC's joints. CD's were just starting to come out, but hadn't really caught on. Well I was stationed in Japan and they were light years ahead of the US as far as music. So I was able to get all 3 joints on CD in 1987. And I still have them today. Can't read the liner notes because they're in Japanese. This album stays true to it's name....every song goes hard. But then they cap it off with "Darryl and Joe"....listen to it on a good system and it'll give you goosebumps
 Darryl and Joe Apr 07, 2008
I was a teenager when this album came out and fell totally in love with hip hop around this time. This album was the icing on the cake for a kid like me in the 80's. Get this album and you will re-live those great hip hop memories.
TRULY THE KINGS OF ROCK & RAP May 12, 2007

WHAT, NO REVIEW YET?!!!....... Jan 10, 2007
C'mon fellow heads! This is that business!Of course their debut self titled album is awesome but this one has it's own place in history too! When have you,ever,ever, see an intro to a movie like KrushGrove when they threw down on 'King of Rock' ( I am 33 and I still get pumped watching that,so do my little cousins!)Daryl and Joe helped me to appreciate the art of M.C.ing and Djing all on the same track. And You're Blind? Oh my god, You're Blind.......dude, one of the FLYEST HOOKS EVER! Around that time, wearing glasses was considered nerdy, D.M.C. made it cool, and proved you can could rock lenses and be hard all at the same time. RUNDMC the album certainly open the door, but this album created the phenom!
This is what set the standard... Dec 20, 2005
This Album set the standard for all Rap music today. Rap was good and people listened but KOR blew the roof off the rap world. Every cut gets a good rating from me. But the main title King of Rock Fused the Rock and Rap world and forever solidified raps place as a legitimate art form. No matter how many times I listen to it it still sounds fresh.
