This was the crossover which introduced to separate groups of ppl to each other's music each group benefited and so did all of us
A lot of people think that, but it began with " Rock Box" by Run DMC.
Bring the noise w/ Anthrax is a good crossover too..!
This sing brought Aerosmith back from the dead. I was a Aerosmith fan before this, but they were done by this time. I personally am not a fan of the Aerosmith music when they made the comeback, but they would not have had the comeback if not for Run DMC.
Yeah Aerosmith was broken up at the time that this was made and it kind of helped them with their reuniting
@@fredtello It didn't kill anything. Stop being so dramatic.
This was the first "notable" big collaboration that was big on MTV at the time. By doing an old Aerosmith song it not only brought hip-hop and Run-DMC to the mainstream but it also revived Aerosmith's career being that they were in a [almost] decade long dry spell.
Truth
@@fredtello how do you figure
Lol.. revived their career? Lol this collaboration is a joke!
@@richardlacey4923 Aerosmith was nowhere before this video/song was released. After this there was renewed interest in them and they went on to become more famous than they were in the 70's.
That’s because they were busy partying and blowing money...not because they couldn’t produce any music, they could go into the studio at anytime and get high on the charts!
"Walk This Way" is a song by Aerosmith. Written by Steven Tyler and Joe Perry, the song was originally released as the second single from the album, Toys In The Attic (1975).
Toys in the addict, love that album. Came out 1975 I was a junior in high school, 63 now still listen to Aerosmith
@@lancevaughn432 Attic not Addict! You are thinking of Alice in Chains.
@@barrycohen311 In the hospital recovering from surgery a little foggy sorry about that I’ll try to do better later
@@lancevaughn432 No worries man. Could have been a grunge album. I like it- "Songs From the Addict"
real story is,,, RUN DMC was "rappin" on walk this way 70's version , they were rappin on the musical part from the begginning and the never heard the vocal ....
they wanted to make their OWN version of the song , but some manager asked DMC to try something with aerosmiths, at start they never wanted to make a DUO with aerosmiths ,,,
well ..... LISTEN DMC gives full informations about that 80's version ,,, czcams.com/video/YkxP5GsWkAk/video.html&ab_channel=boom97.3
Thanks to Jam Master Jay for push the two others into this and thanks to Joey and Stephen for allowing it and joining in. This song saved Aerosmith and launched Run DMC into mainstream. It might also have lead to Run DMC's demise, but hey they all got paid. R.I.P. Jam Master Jay
I remember growing up in the 80's and hearing this song. It blew everyone's minds. No one heard anything like this. The way it just flowed was mesmerizing. It blew up so big everybody knew this song back then.
Lifted Run-DMC to the masses and helped restart Aerosmith from their years of working on their sobriety.
Somebody sounding like, have no clue
Exactly!! I saw Aerosmith back in the 80's and Guns and Roses opened for them and they blew Aerosmith of the stage!! Steven sounded horrible! But then again they were both hooked on MR. BROWNSTONE at the time. There managers ended up separating the two bands while on the road.
Sugarhill Gang to me was the first Rap band on the scene to me!! Rapper's Delight check it out!
@@tomh5006 Yeah, part of the reason for seperation was that Izzy Stradlin (Rhythm guitar, backing vocalsused & co-lyricist) used to be Aerosmith's drugdealer before Guns made it big. They suspected he was still selling to them.
Truly a thing of beauty, brought a lot of rock fans and rap fans together. What a time.
Back in the day this broke down musical walls, just like in the video. 😎
@@fredtello So, your saying there hasn’t been a notable Rock n Roll song or group since 1986 because of this video?🤦♂️
@@fredtello this brought more to rock and roll, introduced many to it also so it actually had a positive impact
This was a ground breaking song in history to bring these two opposites together and make one of my favorites. This was the first collaboration and it was brilliantly done! The video was amazing and the appearance at the concert was crazy. They're unique sounds together was perfect
This may not have been the first rock/rap collaboration ever, but it was the first one to go big and get everybody's attention, making a lot of rockers take another look at rap, and rappers take another look at rock.
I remember watching this on MTV for the 1st time in the 80s it was huge the 1st time rap and rock came together and that started it all. There is a documentary of the making of this very good.
This a old school classic right here hip hop legends and rock legends together on one track. the original was aerosmith song before the collab.
Run-DMC was one of the first groups I remember growing up when rap started I was always a big rock and roller and when Aerosmith and Run-DMC got together it blew my mind this was also a big cultural move back in the day for them to to get together and I loved every damn minute of it
Opened me up to rap. I'd loved the song back in the 70s, but this was sooooo much better
This was 1986. First real colab of rock and hip hop. Great to see 2 legendary groups. Beastie Boys had a rock sound on alot...but this was a true mash up. Nice ya noticed the shell tops. Lol.. Great reaction. Stay safe
In 1986
Run-DMC were rap superstars while Aerosmith was a '70s rock band on its
last legs. But when the two groups teamed up to record a mashup of
Aerosmith's "Walk This Way," they changed the course of music history.
to me.. one of the best collaborations ever... One thing ppl don't notice...It's all Joe Perry on the guitar... just amazing. Even though this is an original song from Aerosmith in the 70's ... the remake with Run DMC... put Aerosmith back one the map in the 90's.
This was a game changer right here. I mean Areosmith with Run - DMC. It doesn't get any better than this 🔥🔥🔥🎸🎸🎸 This was the first of its kind. Rock-N-Rap and it sounded great. One of my favorite videos of all time.
As a high schooler at the time this was the first collab with rock/rap and it gave us as children a doorway to our parents groups and say "see dad, aerosmith is playing with run d mc"
It helped the rap industry solidify its genre and brought it more mainstream. It just plain opened doors for so many people and groups to come in the future.
Big MOMENT in the rap industry.
Fun Fact: the "hip hop vibe" wasn't introduced in the song by Run-DMC, Stephen Tyler already sang it like that in the original.
And he did it in the 70's
This takes me back to my childhood! lol Great reaction guys!!
Absolutely Run DMC is part of the beginning of hip hop. This song is actually Aerosmith’s original song
Sugar hill gang would like to debate that with you.
Walk this way was originally an Aerosmith song. They're just rapping the lyrics. OG rock/rap. Produced some great things. Then some horrific trends. Lol. When when it worked it was great
Even in white middle class suburbia when RunDMC came out with their first tape everyone wanted it. It was like top priority on your christmas list. The only problem was that this was one of the first tapes to ever come out that you had to be a certain age to buy it because it contained explicit lyrics. So if you were a kid and you're parents didn't approve...you were gonna be shit out of luck.
those sneakers coast 50 dollars in HS.. 1982 That was alot of money back then.. We all had them
This was the first collab I had ever heard. Actually, it was the first rap I had ever heard. It was odd to me. To suddenly hear "Walk This Way" being done by someone I did not recognize with a sound I did not recognize was quite unique. And then to hear Aerosmith coming in for the chorus? What a treat it was. Loved it from day one. When I finally saw the music video, (Dad wouldn't let us have cable or MTV), I was officially hooked on this song.
Boy this really brought back good memories. I remember when this came out. Love Aerosmith and Run DMC!
Great reaction, you're having fun, getting into the beat, sharing your thoughts from your perspective. Props and much continued success Asia and BJ. Keep doing what you're doing.
Aerosmith had already had a long career, with many hits, before the hook-up with Run-DMC. They had also been through a split, intervention rehab and reunion, and their career needed a reboot. A-smith soared after this, and Run-DMC was okay for a while, until Jay had his very bad night at the studio, RIP. The End.
The impact of this song is beyond words.
This is where rap rock started.. Right here.. Like this
The Judgement Night sound track is a complete collaboration of rock and rap
EPIC album, I still own a physical copy.
In the 70's, there was an article written about foul lyrics in rock n roll. They quoted Walk This Way as being how music should be. Nice and wholesome...
Steven Tyler said obviously they didn't get the meaning of "You ain't seen nothin till you're down on a muffin." and yes Asia, hey diddle diddle with a Kittie in the middle is exactly what you thought it was. Aerosmith was my first concert \m/
Also was my first concert. Houston, 1976, with Angel and Nazareth.
Tyler also recognised it took more creativity to use metaphors than just explicit language.
Great reaction I love this version of this song I saw them do it live a few years ago it brings back great memories for me thanks
Greatest concert I ever attended, June 1988 - Run DMC, Public Enemy, Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince and EPMD.
This song was released in 1986 (it's 35 YEARS OLD!) and is probably the oldest rap/rock collaboration featuring artists that were this well known.
You need to follow this up with the next big metal/rap collab that came out. Gotta check our Anthrax with Public Enemy doing "Bring the Noise"
The whole "Attack of the Killer B's" album was a life changer❤
😈👍
Yes love that song!!!!!!
Remember Wipeout....the Fatboys and BeachBoys.
This is one of Aerosmith's big hits. Run DMC is covering THEIR song.
Now... imagine this...a lil rocker kid... living three blocks from the Jets in 1981... feeling like I was dropped behind enemy lines... meeting a friend who had cable (because in 1981... bootlegging cable (MTV) in the jets was as simple as splicing a cable) and seeing this video...Hmmm...Got BLESSED... the 80's was fun.
Yes this was evolutionary the first of its kind. two separate genres at the top of their game collaborating . Its Aerosmith's song and lyrics and to have Run DMC spit their lyrics was/is tight.
Yes this was the introduction of rock and rap, Aerosmith was the original to do Walk This Way.The next to do it was anthrax doing "bring the noize"
Run DMC "It's Tricky" features Kerry King from Slayer on Guitar. It's a great track.
I am 50 years old. I was a teenager when they did this collaboration and I remember the next day… EVERYONE was talkin about it. It was the first collaboration and it set forth a great relationship between blacks and whites from where I was from. I’m from South Louisiana. It was the best thing we had all seen in a long time. Brought blacks and whites together significantly. I’ll never forget the day I witnessed the together on MTV.
😎 ***************ONE OF THE BEST COLLABORATIONS IN MUSIC HISTORY*************** 😎 Introduced Rock fans to Hip Hop, & Hip Hop to Rock!!!
It was certainly the first big-time rap-rock collaboration but Run DMC put out some rock-influenced stuff on their own in the very early days of rap - most notably their song Rock Box.
First time ever cross over between rock and rap..
This blew everybodys mind in the world.
No one had ever even thought that this was possible..
And EVERYBODY and they mama had on Adidas when Rebock and Nikes was the sneakers to wear back then.
Run DMC did "My Adidas " so you know that they got big bank on that song from everybody..including Adidas...
As far as I know it was the first collaboration, Anthrax and Public Enemy was a few years later. Thier song "Bring the noise" was lit also. 🔥
For your question. It was the first big rap/rock collab. Two years before this Chaka Kahn did a collab with Melle Mel for the song "I Feel For You".
This one lit everyone up when it dropped……love it ! ❤️🎼🤘😎 music is the universal language……❤️
run dmc trendsetters indeed ```i had them bumpin on my home radio , car cassette and all that
good bass in a lot of their songs
top 10 all time ,any genre, Favorite of mine
RUN-DMC mixed rap and rock two years earlier with a track called Rock Box on their first LP.
The 1st ever commercialized Rap Metal ever produce they paved the way to a lot of rap and rock artists and unite 2 different genres
This song brought hip hop out of the city to the suburbs and beyond. It was really a genius idea by Run DMC.
Walk this way was the 3rd track off Toys in the Attic. DJs used the intro as a loop without getting to the lyrics. Their producer come up with this idea and Jam Master Jay loved it.
This song was a number one hit for Aerosmith 10 years before they used it with Run DMC Def Jam records at this time was selling records but not a lot so Rick Rubin, who you probably know the name he’s a famous producer. He was their producer at the time they needed to get some kind of to push them out into the mainstream so they got together with Aerosmith and Aerosmith brought run DMC and hip-hop into the mainstream with this song right here. At this time, the Beastie Boys were riding a lot of run DMC’s lyrics and then Run DMC took it upon themselves to write their own lyrics and here we are. and yes, this is the first collaboration between a hip-hop or rap group and a rock ‘n’ roll group like I said before it in my comment, the Aerosmith brought run DMC into the mainstream, and therefore hip-hop went into the mainstream, so it all boils back to run DMC and Aerosmith pushing it out into the main stream.
Classic Steven Tyler lyrics. This was the song that saved the band and probably saved their lives it brought them to the forefront again. I was fortunate enough to see them tour together and it was amazing
Run DMC were the OGs of hip hop and Aerosmith is of course,rock royalty. The humor they both showed was great.
A bunch of people have mentioned that this song was an Aerosmith song already. I'd also suggest listening to Run-DMC's earlier song, "Rock Box", where they integrated some heavy rock guitar into their own rap song. (I believe the guitar was played by studio guitar wizard Eddie Martinez).
Great Reaction this is the one of the most revolutionary moments in music history paved the way.. that's why the wall is between them in the beginning of the video... how much larger world
Yes this is the first collaboration of rock and hip hop !
this song was the first song on history, where rock and hip hop came the first time together
I remember watching this on MTV back when they played Music Videos.. Good Times!!
This is the first crossover hit I can remember. The only one other than this was with Public Enemy and Anthrax…”Bring the Noise”
Yep!! This was a remake of an Aerosmith clssic Rock and this vid revolutionized and opened up airwaves open to hip hop!!
I believe it was the first rock/rap collaboration, but not the only to mix rock and rap. The Beastie Boys were the first to group to mix the two sounds regularly. Their songs No Sleep til Brooklyn and Fight for Your Right came out the same year as this song did.
If you love rock n rap mixed you will love the Judgement Night soundtrack, lots of hip hop and rap artists paired with metal, grunge bands etc. Run-DMC do a track called Me, Myself and My microphone with Living Colour. Pairings like Slayer and Ice-t, Cypress Hill and Sonic Youth the whole album is fire!
My fave being 'Another Body Murdered' - Faith No More and Boo-Yaa T.R.I.B.E.
@@Rockaria23 Yea love that one. Also love De La Soul and Teenage Fanclub - Fallin' as it's a nice chill track. Every track on that album is a winner.
There was also Onyx with Biohazard.
This "music meld" was HUGE. It was music changing for all genre's.
This whole song was originally an Aerosmith song from the 1975 album Toys in the Attic. Run DMC took it and added hip hop flavor to it and made it a slightly better song.
Proof that rock and rap should collaborate more often.
Sooooo crazy to me so many younger folks havent heard this. It was the first time rock and rap ever hooked up. Some of Steven Tyler (Aerosmith) is the closets things we had to rap. ha.....and honestly back then, a LOT of folks was NOT happy that Aerosmith did this. Good for both of em. This was originally an Aerosmith song from the 70's that they remade with Run DMC in 86'.
This song paved the way for multi genre collabs
Yes it was first collaboration between the two genres. When Steven heard that there was a hip hop group sampling “ this way” he was pissed. Then when the managers and executives got them to meet at the studio and bam it was Magic. My brother was in college and he said that when this version was released that it made it okay for blacks and whites to jam together and listen to music in different genres. Blacks didn’t think they’d enjoy rock and whites hip hip/rap but they did. Both group members have gave interviews and they all said the same.
"Rockbox" is the first time I heard the mix. Besides "30 Days" that was my favorite song off their first album.
Yep, first colab.....Originally an Aerosmith classic....You guys should react the original....
^^THIS! So they can see that Stephen Tyler also rapped the lyrics in the original.
RUN D.M.C. and LL Cool J were among the biggest trend setters in fashion in the 80s. Kango hats and Adidas were 2 of the biggest. Reminds me. Since you are on this old school trip you should watch some LL Cool J
Remembered this on MTV back in the day.
Aerosmith started the end of Rock/metal on MTV with this collaboration...rap exploded onto the scene.
Love it!!! I remember this, everyone thought it was so cool. One of the best rock bands & one of the first best hip hop doing a song together unbelievable!! So awesome!! Thank you for playing this video, made my day!! 😘
Apparently, RUN-DMC were working with this particular Aerosmith song. When Aerosmith found out, they were P!$$3D. After some Talking they agreed to do a remix with RUN-DMC. It really was magic.
See-saw swingin'
With the boys in school
And her feet was flyin' up in the air
Singin', "Hey diddle diddle with a kitty in the middle"
Yep, the first BIG collaboration
Great that you watched the video not just the words. Ground breaking at the time.
This is what got run DMC into the rock n roll hall of fame one of only 6 rappers and the first in......so yeah they were Trend setters.
At the time rappers would sample rock without paying royalties especially if they were part of the same record label, so this was a big deal because run DMC gave the rock group the recognition and it got Aerosmith back in the public light after a few really bad years. So showed that both could Benefit.
Run DMC were the first to incorporate rock guitar into rap music. They appealed to both rap and rock fans and their success was due to that crossover. Beastie Boys had a similar sound, toured with Run DMC and were also on the same label (Def Jam). If you want to react to more original old school hip hop I'd recommend "Planet rock" by Afrika Bambaata.
I know Anthrax did a colab with Public Enemy back in 89 and this song came out in 86 so you maybe right about who was first, as I don't recall anyone else doing this until these bands did it, great reaction guys 👌👍
This is the first collab of a rock/rap group and I believe the first time a rap song charted. This song also revived Aerosmith's career
The rumor I heard was, in the 70's Aerpsmith was a hit. Then they fell into a drug addiction hole for a while and popularity went down. Then in the early 80s they were working on coming back. Run DMC were fans, having listened to Aerosmith growing up. Run was popular and reached out to Aerosmith offering to do a collaboration to help make them hip with a younger audience, I guess it worked :)
This was a song by Areosmith then at Areosmith got up with RDMC and played it at the Grammy awards together and it became a hit again.
I've always thought that Hip Hop blew up when Break Dancin did, because that dance craze was a phenomenon across racial lines and all these movies about it started poppin up and those movies had soundtracks featuring these great artists like Run DMC, Cool Mo Dee, Ice T, etc. Suddenly that music was everywhere. Keep in mind, I lived in a small New England city known for it Rockwellian influence, and it wasn't until breakin hit that Hip Hop really permeated even my neck of the woods.
This is one of the most influential tracks ever released. LL Cool J credited Run DMC with cracking open the door of rap to white kids. Shortly after the Beastie Boys hit who LL said kicked the door down. Definitely should check out the Beastie Boys. Most of the world thinks EM was the first white rapper.
As others said, definitely check out Anthrax and Public Enemy - Bring the Noise.
@@fredtello Killed rock and roll? No way. Rock and roll spent most of the 80’s killing itself by becoming commercialized pre packaged bs for the masses. All looking and sounding the same. Much like what hip hop is becoming today.
Been lucky enough to see both groups live .
#AsiiaandBJ This song is why the album RUN DMC - Raising Hell was my forth cassette and my first rap one. This was around 1987 cause I was 11. In 1983 Rap music and Thrash metal music were both getting little to know airplay, so the artists could barely afford to eat. Rap and Thrash were both bithed in NYC. Scott Ian the guitar player from thrash band ANTHRAX liked Rap music, he and the band wrote and recorded A rap song called "I'm The Man" in 1983. It was a cheasy attempt at a comedy song but the music and lyrics were rap. I think this song was the first rock ? rap track. In the 90s, Anthrax did a song with Public Enemy called "Bring The Noise" and Anthraax redid "I'm the man" with the Beastie Boys.
Run DMC were the biggest main steam Rap artist in the early '80s. Good songs to hear are "My Addis" and "It's Like That".
This vid is just so much fun. You all are taking me back with this one. Thanks for the memories.
walk this way was a song by aerosmith and run dmc used it, and they approached aerosmith to work together for MTVand it brought RAP and Rock come together this took RAP to the masses then
Timeless classic that’s 💯 🔥 and omg that beat is everything! THX’s amazing reaction & 🎯insights & commentary! ♥️ yawl
This song is what really made rap mainstream. Prove me wrong
Pioneers of hip hop, couldn’t agree more!
This song was the first of its kind. Still rock this song
The crossover was so good one of the first I can remember and at the time Run DMC was hot
it was the mtv era,,,,mtv was mostly pop rock and rock,,aerosmith and run dmc doing this song together helped give non rockers a video to watch,,,introduce rap lovers to rock,,and rock lovers to rap,,no such thing as hip hop back then,,,
walk this way may have a rock version only to it also?????i'm happy to see that nowdays many people are learning about rap and rock and metal music,,,,and all music with these reaction video's,,,,
i hope that all us music lovers will join together in heaven someday and just chill together,,and enjoy.
This is an Aerosmith song from the 70's. The band had a lot of drug problems & broke up for awhile. MTV was huge worldwide & there was Yo Mtv raps & Aerosmith took a chance on a onetime collaboration it worked & the band got huge again with the release of Permanent Vacation.,
