Peacock has shared the official trailer for ‘Kings From Queens: The RUN DMC Story,’ a documentary exploring the career and legacy of the iconic Hip-Hop group.
The three-part series is produced by Believe Entertainment Group and follows Joseph “Rev Run” Simmons, Darryl “DMC” McDaniels, and Jason “Jam Master Jay” Mizell, back to the 1980s.
“You may know the broad strokes… the Adidas hard shells, the chains, the glasses, the iconic hooks, and massive hits, but few know the whole story. The story of how three kids from Queens busted on the scene in 1983, shattered racial barriers, and changed music forever,” details the official description.
