This is a Aerosmith song from back in the 1970s, and Run DMC decided to cover it. You need to understand, back then, there was a real rivalry in the fandom, those who listened to rock on one side, those who listened to rap or hip hop on the other. This was a big "moment" in music history. It was suddenly fine to "officially" like both (people who really love music did anyway, but no rock fan would have admitted they liked rap and vice versa). Aerosmith were not doing so well at that time, and they became popular again after this. I've watched other "reaction" videos, and I realized most people who weren't born (or old enough) back then don't get many things, the context, impact and meaning at the time, and subtleties, easter eggs and the like, hints on things going on back then etc.

Walk this way is an aerosmith song. Their career was dead when one day, one of the guys in RunDMC came to the studio listening to this song and the producer was also the manager for Aerosmith and he arranged this collaboration, and it saved Aerosmith's career. To this day, Steven Tyler says he is eternally greatful for Run DMC agreeing to this

The idea that his salvaged Aerosmith's career is a false narrative. Their career was down because Joe Perry had left the band. He came back right at this time and they released the Permanent Vacation album that had several good songs that became hits. The album was a great comeback album and would have been successful without this collaboration.

Rick Rubin was producing RUN-DMC for Def Jam records, which he had founded with Run's brother Russell Simmons. He was not Aerosmith's manager. The reason he came up with the idea to cover the song was because they used to loop just the first few seconds of the drumbeat and rhyme over it. RUN-DMC had never even listened to the whole song before.

Aerosmith has been around so long and have many great songs. I do like this video have seen before. Thanks for sharing. A song that comes to mind by Aerosmith is... I Dont Want to Miss a Thing. I still cry when I hear it. I was driving and it came on the radio the first time I heard it. Just found out 10 minutes earlier someone that ment the world to me had terminal cancer. Still a beautiful song. Thanks for you reactions!!!

I'm also someone who was born in the '60s. I absolutely loved to Run DMC when we heard that kind of music for the first time! But you're so cute that's an at that time a classic Aerosmith hit! He's allowing them to cover it because he is part of their exposure and our acceptance to the real talent of rap stars by that time. You know when you wrap was getting started? This is why Aerosmith is a legend and still going strong today and probably damn near 70 maybe? And actually he sang that song so fast literally I guess we didn't call it wrapped that that was one of those songs that you continually listen to because it was difficult to get every word right when you were cruising and singing in the car to it! ✌️✌️✌️✌️♥️♥️♥️♥️. I I'm so thrilled that so many young people are really getting into this music. And believe me that was a time when music was censored. Run DMC probably broke one of the biggest barriers with their biggest hit that blew up and introduced us to them. One great Rock show can change the world. It has in the past. It can now. Which means it can again in the future! ✌️♥️😎🤘
