RAP HISTORY MONTH - RUN DMC!!! | SOLE COLLECTOR MAGAZINE

Run-D.M.C. (or Booya) was a major pioneering hip hop group during the 1980s, founded by Joseph "Rev Run" Simmons, Darryl "D.M.C." McDaniels, and the late Jason "Jam-Master Jay" Mizell.

More RUN-DMC info (Wikipedia). This shoot was for Sole Collector Magazine.

They were legendary in the history of rap music and the pioneers of rap-rock. I remember I was 16 when I first heard Run DMC's collaboration with one of my favorite bands, Aerosmith. The track was aptly titled "Walk this Way" (Click to watch the Video)
They were the forefathers of the Linkin Park's of today.

Having the honor of shooting such Rap Royalty was awesome. For this occasion, video's from the photoshoot are made public. Check it out.
