Adidas Pays Tribute to Run DMC

Adidas Honors Run DMC’s Legacy.

It was back in the 1980s that the iconic rap group Run DMC made Adidas Sneaks a household name.

The rap group was influential in making Adidas sneakers much more popular.

Many young American teens were seen wearing Adidas sneakers and sweatsuits.

According to B.E.T., Run DMC profoundly influenced music and fashion.

Run DMC, consisting of Joseph “Run” Simmons, Darryl “DMC” McDaniels, and the late Jason “Jam Master Jay” Mizell, emerged in the 1980s.

With their groundbreaking fusion of rap and rock.

They revolutionized the music scene and became cultural icons.

Run DMC created a signature song, “My Adidas.”

This was one of the songs on their hit album, “Raising Hell, ” released in 1986.

For us, Run DMC set the blueprint for hip-hop culture.

For this reason, Run DMC entered into a monumental contract with the sneaker giant.

As stated by Complex, Adidas formed a lasting relationship with the iconic group.

Perhaps, Run DMC’s influence caused significant brands to partner with rappers.

Which was almost unheard of in the early eighties.

As you can see, many rappers now have big endorsements, which include sneakers, clothing, and cars.
