LIMEHOF Inductee Darryl "DMC" McDaniels co-founded Run-DMC alongside Joseph "Rev Run" Simmons and Jason "Jam Master Jay" Mizell, setting the stage for a revolutionary impact on the music industry.
Run-DMC quickly ascended to fame with the release of their debut album in 1984 under Profile Records. Their single "Rock Box" became the first rap video played on MTV, breaking new ground for the genre. The group continued to achieve historic milestones, including being the second rap act on American Bandstand and releasing the groundbreaking Raising Hell album in 1986, which went triple platinum and featured the iconic collaboration with Aerosmith on "Walk This Way." Their influence extended further as they became the first rap group to grace the cover of Rolling Stone.
Beyond music, McDaniels has made significant contributions to society and the arts. He co-founded The Felix Organization, supporting children in the foster care system, and penned an autobiography, "King of Rock: Respect, Responsibility, and My Life with Run DMC," alongside a candid memoir, "Ten Ways to Not Commit Suicide." In 2014, he ventured into the comic book world with Darryl Makes Comics.
McDaniels' legacy was cemented when Run-DMC was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2009 and honored with the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2016.
