• 1:42
  Speaker 1: for me number two. You know, you had your B
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: boys stance ready, but they were a movement, and I
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: think for me Run DMC the importance of what they
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: were doing. It wasn't just about them rapping. It wasn't
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: just about the MC. They showed how important the DJ was,
