Aerosmith and Run-D.M.C. joined forces at the Grammy Awards to perform their rap-rock classic take on 'Walk This Way'
The Recording Academy is under fire after the ouster of Grammys chief Deborah Dugan. You wouldn’t know that from watching the telecast.
Aerosmith was on the agenda because the band was given the MusiCares Person of the Year at the non-profit’s annual Grammy-week charity event. The band opened with their 1993 hit “Living on the Edge,” but stopped abruptly. “You know what, let’s try something different,” Perry said, before a wall dropped to reveal Run-D.M.C. Armed with a pair of turntables and two DJs, Rev. Run and DMC amped up the proceedings, and attendees grooving in aisles to a throwback jam.
And the beat went on at Staples Center, as the rockers and the rappers combined styles to remind listeners of a time when the two genres had yet to co-mingle. Aerosmith have been nominated for 14 awards, and won four of them, most famously for “Janie’s Got a Gun” and “Crazy.” For their part, Run-D.M.C. was nominated in 1986 for “Raising Hell” in the R&B performance by a duo or group with vocal.
