Peacock is kicking off Black History Month with a documentary series chronicling the impact of Run DMC. Kings From Queens: The Run DMC Story premieres Thursday (Feb. 1) on Peacock.
Directed by Kirk Fraser, the three-part documentary highlights the rise of Joseph “Rev Run” Simmons, Darryl “DMC” McDaniels and “Jam Master Jay” Mizell — three friends from Queens, New York, who went on to became one of the greatest rap groups of all time.
In the series, Rev Run and DMC get candid about everything from their early days in the group to finding superstardom and the loss of Jam Master Jay, who was gunned down in his recording studio in 2002. The murder trial against Jam Master Jay’s accused killers started this week — more than 20 years after his murder and nearly four years after the men were arrested.
