Take a deep dive into legendary hip-hop group Run-DMC’s groundbreaking album, Raising Hell, on its 40th anniversary with this handsome slipcased celebration. In 1985, Queens, New York–based rap group Run-DMC teamed with heavy metal producer Rick Rubin to record their breakthrough album and one of the most influential songs in rap and rock. The album, Raising Hell, went double platinum and sold over 3 million copies. The song, a collaboration with rock group Aerosmith covering that band’s 1975 hit “Walk This Way,†is credited with pushing hip-hop into the mainstream and launching the rap-rock genre. In Run DMC and Raising Hell: 40 Years, noted hip-hop historian JayQuan examines every aspect of the release, including: A look back at the group’s career prior to 1986 - Track-by-track analyses of each side - Figures associated with the group and the release, such as producer Rick Rubin - The supporting tour and promotional efforts that followed the album’s release - The group’s career after the LP. JayQuan draws heavily from his interviews with key figures, including surviving group members Joseph "Run" Simmons and Darryl "DMC" McDaniels, as well as studio and label personnel. Illustrated with performance and off-stage photography, as well as select memorabilia, this beautiful slipcased hardcover is the ultimate word on a work that had a towering impact on both rap and rock and is an essential addition to the collection of any fan.
