Rediscover the groundbreaking sound of Run-D.M.C. with their classic album, Tougher Than Leather. This vinyl release captures the trio’s unparalleled influence on hip hop and music as a whole. Before their rise from Hollis, Queens, hip hop was yet to prove itself as a dominant commercial genre. Run-D.M.C. shattered records, becoming the first hip hop artists to achieve various milestones, including Gold and Platinum album certifications.
In the liner notes, Chuck D of Public Enemy fondly recalls the electric atmosphere of touring with the group after this album’s release. He highlights the innovative use of funk and rock samples in tracks like the title song and praises the creativity behind the remix of their classic tracks into “Soul To Rock And Roll.” This album is more than just a collection of songs; it’s a celebration of hip hop culture that defined a generation.
