Run DMC

April 2nd - April 8th

In honor of Run-DMC receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2016 Grammy Awards, the BoomBox takes a look back at the career highs and lows of the iconic rap trio.

Run-DMC is finally getting their Grammy recognition. Run, DMC and the late Jam Master Jay will be the first hip-hop act to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Recording Academy.

Hip-hop icons Run-DMC and DJ A-Trak have teamed up for a commercial with Adidas Originals. The clip brings two distinct generations of music together for an interactive campaign called 'Unite All Originals.'

Legendary rapper Darryl "DMC" McDaniels of Run-DMC is bringing the worlds of hip-hop and comics together for a new project.

'Down With the King' was the end of a decade-long reign by the legendary hip-hop trio Run-DMC.

R.I.P.  Jam Master Jay, one of the fundamental DJ's in hip hop (Run DMC) and the DJ community. It seems as if his son has taken up the craft and released a video. His son TJ Mizell aka A$AP Scratch is a member/DJ of the A$AP Mobb, including rapper A$AP Rocky. The video features Jay's son out in the middle of NY DJing. In 20 degree weather I might add!

Sources report that legendary Hip-Hop Photographer Glen Friedman has filed a lawsuit against concert promotion giant, Live Nation for copyright infringement over a set of Run-DMC photos. Friedman filed the lawsuit against Live Nation, Art.com and Anthill Trading in U.S. District Court for the Central District of California yesterday.

Long before anyone ever heard of Jay Z, 50 Cent, or Eminem there was Grandmaster Flash, Run DMC, LL Cool J and more. Rap music has come a long way but these artists paved the way for today's stars.

Run DMC rap legend Darryl "DMC" McDaniels will star in a new short film along with wrestling legend Diamond Dallas Page. The flick is called “Hard Luck”,and it’s written and directed by Kurtis Spieler.
