Influential DJ, Producer, Davy DMX is the man behind many classic hip hop artists such as Run DMC, the Fearless Four, Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde and many others. A talented musician, he was also a member of Orange Krush (the band for Run DMC, Sweet G, Lovebug Starski et. al). His album Davey’s Ride was underrated, and heavily slept on, so if you can find it — cop it. Remember – “Have you seen Davy???!”
