Скачать или смотреть DMC’s Metal Roots — Sabbath, Priest, and the Rock DNA Behind “She Gets Me High”

DMC sits down with Metal Walt for a deep dive into his heavy metal and hard rock origins — from the music he heard growing up to discovering the power of Black Sabbath and Judas Priest.
In this wide-ranging conversation, DMC explains how rock music was already embedded in early hip-hop culture, why songs like “Rock Box” proved that rock was part of Run-DMC’s DNA from the start, and how that foundation eventually led him to create metal and hard rock music in his own lane.
The interview also touches on DMC’s 2026 solo metal single “She Gets Me High,” his connection to NYC hardcore, playing with Agnostic Front, performing with Sammy Hagar, and opening for Lou Reed — reinforcing a lifelong relationship with rock, metal, and underground culture.
