If there was no Run-DMC, there might not be no me. There might not be a lot of other rappers.” – Eminem

Kings From Queens: The RUN DMC Story is a three-part documentary series, produced by Believe Entertainment Group, chronicling the iconic forefathers of hip-hop, RUN DMC. This unique series takes you back to the 1980s, when Joseph “Rev Run” Simmons, Darryl “DMC” McDaniels, and Jason “Jam Master Jay” Mizell cultivated a one-of-a-kind sound that took not only Queens, but the world, by storm.
The docuseries features exclusive interviews from RUN DMC, as well as some of hip-hop’s biggest names, including Eminem, Ice Cube, LL COOL J, Questlove, Beastie Boys, Ice-T, Chuck D, Tom Morello, Salt, Doug E. Fresh, Big Daddy Kane, MC Lyte, Ed Lover, Jermaine Dupri, and many more!
The documentary includes footages from 2009 when Eminem inducted Run-DMC into The Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame. As well as new interview from Slim Shady: “If there was no Run-DMC, there might not be no me. There might not be a lot of other rappers. DMC’s voice was so commanding. So big and godly to me. When they did Walk This Way, that s–t just blew that whole s–t out the f–king water. That was a start of this art form being taking seriously.” Check the video cuts from the documentary below.
