Today in Hip Hop History – King of Rock Was Released

King of Rock Was Released

I’m the king of rock, there is none higher
Sucker MC’s should call me sire
To burn my kingdom, you must use fire
I won’t stop rockin’ till I retire…

That song is theĀ King of Rock from the album King of Rock which was released 23 years ago today, January 23rd, 1985. Here’s the “King of Rock” video. Enjoy.
