Description:

The hard-rocking, platinum-selling, hip-hop sons of Hollis, Queens--Jam Master Jay, Darryl "DMC" McDaniels, and Joe "Run" Simmons (brother of Def Jam impresario Russell Simmons)--are well represented on this collection of upbeat videos from their first album, the groundbreaking Run-DMC (1984), up through their comeback, Down with the King (1993). Highlights include "Sucker M.C.'s (Krush-Groove 1)," featuring break dance contest winners from around the world; MTV-staple "Walk This Way," featuring Steven Tyler and Joe Perry from Aerosmith; "You Talk Too Much" (essentially a hip-hop take on the Mose Allison putdown classic "Your Mind Is on Vacation"); the humorous "It's Tricky," featuring Penn & Teller as rap star wannabes; and "It's Like That (Run-DMC vs. Jason Nevins)," featuring more gravity-defying break dance moves. Overall, the look is monochromatic (black hats, black track suits), the beats heavy, the guitars crunching, and the tone positive. The DVD includes a discography (including track listings for each release) and a Profile Records minidocumentary. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Excellent product. It has all of the best hits on it. The documentary is interesting. Very fine product.

4Great stuff here, a tribute to JMJ!  Apr 20, 2003
Great stuff here. The dvd is pretty bare bones as far as extras.. you only have a static discography and an extremely brief documentary on Profile Records..

Anyway, MOST of their video hits are here.. People who remember the DOWN WITH THE KING cd may notice that "Ooh, Whatcha Gonna Do" is not here..

Also, "sucker mc's" and "it's like that(remix)" are certainly NEW videos, but technically, don't feature the band..

visually, you can't help but notice that hip-hop videos have gotten much better budgets since Run DMC's heyday (witness the head-swapping graphic on "rock box"..), but hey, the music is still as good as it gets...

4IF U SAY YOU HEARD THE RHYMES WE GONNA HAVE TO FIGHT!  Feb 07, 2001
If u are a RUN DMC fan this one is a no brainer. These videos are all top quality. You are getting what you pay for. The videos are complete. Plus u get a video that you probably havent seen. Its for the Jason Nevins club remix of "It's Like That" (Jason Nevins is an English Dj who's remixes of Run Dmc classics can be found on the UK version of their greatest hits album) This video features two b-boy/girl crews battlin old skool in a wherehouse...dope. This dvd also features a "mini-documentary" which is a worthless Priority self-promo. But that aside this is a must have for RUN DMC fans. (Remember Penn and Teller in the "It's tricky" video, or the countless cameos from rappers in "Down with the King?" bet you've never seen Kriss Kross and Eazy E in the same place before.) Would've gotten 5 stars but the video for "My addidas" is missing. They be illin.
