Run-D.M.C.’s Raising Hell remains the turning point at which hiphop crashed through mainstream barriers and never left. Anchored by the crossover smash “Walk This Way,” the 1986 blockbuster still sounds like a revolution unfolding in real time. It has everything — hard-rock riffs, turntable scratching, itchy rhythms, hit singles — not the least of which are the trio’s invigorating raps and inseparable chemistry. Ranked the 209th Greatest Album of All Time by Rolling Stone, 43rd on Pitchfork’s Greatest Albums of the 1980s, one of the Top 100 Albums of All Time by TIME — and included on “Best of” lists by Spin, XXL, Entertainment Weekly, and basically every other significant media outlet – the triple-platinum effort rocks the house. And now it sounds fresh as hell.
