I don't like too much from this album... BUT "King Of Rock", "Darryl & Joe" and "Can You Rock It Like This" = :stylin:

'Raising Hell' album tho'... :whew: To be a lil' kid that summer, EVERY black kid knew that album damn near word-for-word, cause EVERY-BODY had it. I remember playin' outside every day and somebody would sing a part from the album, and everybody knew what the song was. That was Run-DMC in their prime, they were the first rappers everybody wanted to dress like, sound like, etc. They were already on top, but that album just had everybody like :whoo: AND it made them superstars on top of that. They had the pop world lovin' "Walk This Way" and "It's Tricky", and the hood lovin' "Peter Piper" and "Hit It Run"... CRAZY classic.
