Run-DMC is one of the greatest groups ever but they fell off with Tougher Than Leather & Back From Hell. That doesn't take away from their first album, King of Rock and Raising Hell albums though.,Yeah, but they make horrible song like Puke, Without Me, Ass Like That, Just Lose It, Fack, Shake That. That last being the best of those.

the greatest of all time? no... one of the greatests of his time in his prime? absolutely

I mean i know Vanilla, MArky MArk and some others came before him but is was realy him who broke thru as a white rapper, even today there's not even that many that are big. I think he helped hip hop grow in a sense that there's a lot more white people in hip hop I.E J.T is always doing his thing with hip hop acts now.As far as strcily M.c Some of his earlier stuff is pure genius/classic. So if you put all this togther he;s one of the greatest of all time for sure probably in top 5 if not at least 10.

Haha, that rhyme was much better than any lines in Fack, Puke, Ass Like That - Have u ever listened to those songs ?Yeah, I give Eminem credit for his earlier stuff, but he got so much potential. I listened to The Way I Am the other day, and damn I wish Em still wrote and flowed like that. But I guess all that fucking money he got after awhile done did it
Of course I haven't listened to those songs.... but that Run line remains one of the most retarded lines out of any rap song... buying a fucking Kangaroo for a girl that you are trying to romance? I love Run DMC but that doesn't let me be unbiased.
As far as songwriting skills go, "Encore" is the best hiphop album ever.
I think kangaroos are cute
