 DMC of the legendary group Run-DMC was recently a guest on the Drink Champs podcast hosted by N.O.R.E., DJ EFN, and company. During the podcast, DMC spoke about the history of the rap pioneers, early career beginnings, and how they went on to shape the genre. As one of the foundational artists in hip-hop lore, he had a lot to say about his experiences and what he can look back and be proud of. The conversation also touched on lighter topics, jokes, and debates.



DMC also spoke about the loss of Jam Master Jay, and how his murder went on to irrevocably shape Run-DMC's career post-2002. He reflected on how Jay impacted music as a whole, as he is just as integral to the rap group's indelible cultural contributions. It's something that N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN deeply recognize, too, so it was a cathartic space to further process these tragedies.


In addition to that, DMC also reflected on his own struggles with alcoholism and depression, a topic he's been very vocal about in the past. "They didn’t listen," he told HipHopDX in May of 2022 about the glorification of substances and violence in rap. "The big problem is nobody in this current generation of rappers is constantly making records about the issues. Think about it. Out of all the rappers that are out there, who’s making records about the issues?"²²: [source](https://www.hiphopdx.com/news/id.71422/title.dmc-reflects-on-alcoholism-depression-in-rap-nobody-is-making-records-about-the-issues)
