(2011) DMC: Walk This Way takes an exclusive look at one of the founding members of the most influential group in the history of hip hop, Darryl Mcdaniels. In the 80âs Run DMC was the first new school hip hop group to earn a gold record and to be nominated for a Grammy. MTV named Run DMC âthe greatest hip hop artist of all timeâ and the group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2009. They were the first rap act to chart in the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 more than once. Run DMC were first rap artists with gold, platinum and multi-platinum albums, and the first rap act to appear on the cover of Rolling Stone. This profile of the pioneering MC will give us a look at the superstarâs legacy from his early years with RUN DMC, his battle with depression and prescription drugs, to his ultimate status as a hip-hop pioneer.
