Raising Hell Run-DMC Hoodie – 1986 Hip-Hop Classic

Description

1986. The year hip-hop kicked the door down.

When Run-DMC and Rick Rubin walked into Profile Records and made Raising Hell, they weren’t trying to crossover. They were trying to make the hardest record they could. Joe, D, and Jam Master Jay from Hollis, Queens — leather and laces, Adidas no shoestrings, no apologies. Then “Walk This Way” hit MTV with Aerosmith and the floodgates blew open. First rap album to go Platinum. First to go Multi-Platinum. First in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200. They didn’t ask permission, they took the throne.

This is the album that made hip-hop a global force. “My Adidas.” “Peter Piper.” “It’s Tricky.” “You Be Illin’.” Jam Master Jay cutting up the breaks like a surgeon while Run and D traded bars that hit like jabs. The Kings of Rock turned into the Kings of Everything. Wearing this means you understand: before there was crossover, before there was platinum plaques on rap walls, before there was a rap section at Tower Records — there was three dudes from Queens who refused to flinch.
