    About this album

    King Of Rock is Run-DMC’s breakthrough second album and a defining statement of early hardcore hip-hop. Released in 1985, it sharpened the group’s stripped-back beats, clipped rhymes and streetwise swagger while pushing rap into louder, harder territory. With tracks such as the title song, Rock The House and Jam-Master Jammin’, the record helped widen hip-hop’s audience and signalled a new confidence in rap as a mainstream force. Its blunt energy and cross-genre impact made it one of the key albums of the genre’s formative era, and an enduring touchstone for the Run-DMC sound.

    Genre: Hip Hop & RnB
