Honestly, I have not checked them out. "Down with the King" is the last album I bought from Run-DMC. Skipped "Crown Royal" due to bad reviews. Too scared to check out the solos in fear of wackness.

The solos aren't really wack. You just have to go into them with an open mind and realize that it's no longer Run DMC as a group, but rather each individual exploring thier own creativity. Run's solo is closer to the Run DMC style then anything.

Good call on not picking up Crown Royal as it's not a true Run DMC album, but more of a collab with Run and a bunch of other acts. DMC only appears on two or three tracks with relatively simple verses (less then 16 bars).

I checked both of them. From what I remember -- since both are forgettable -- Rev Run had the better album. Production gives Run the edge because both flows are pretty much stone age.

I agree. I'm not too sure about DMC's new rapping voice either. Or I should say his true rapping voice.
