@@paulkersey9553 I agree I was not saying they started it I was saying these kinds of groups started it, these are classics and should never be forgotten.

I remember my Dad playing this song on his giant speakers when I was little every Christmas. He STILL does this and I am 24. This song is a tradition in my family. lol
Guessing you've never heard the song that they sampled this one from? It's called Backdoor Santa by Clarence Carter. Major props to Run-DMC for having such good taste!
I remember getting the album "a very special Christmas" when it came out and me and my brother would get so hype when this song came on. We were little skinny white kids(me 7, him 11) jumping around. And we would have to wait for it, cuz of course it was a tape and my parents didn't want us "wearing out the buttons" by rewinding too much lol
B Diddy I’m torn about which Christmas movie I like more, Die Hard or Lethal Weapon but hell I sure do enjoy both of them as much as I did when they came out
December 24th 2023! I’m 48 years old! Love this song the same today like I did when I heard it on my Boy Bruce Willis Movie Die Hard ❤ Happy Holiday Everyone RiP Jam Master Jay ❤
*When we were kids. "Our parents just* *don't understand this music"* *Now as parents. "Kids just don't* *understand this music" ☺️* *It has come full circle ⭕*
hell yeah. and watching Die Hard, where at the beginning of the movie, the limo driver puts in the cassette tape and jams this song, and says This Is Christmas Music!!
@@reginasquicciariniIf that’s true, please tell him a middle-aged white girl in nowhere PA loves this song because her dad was born in Brooklyn and lived in Hollis when he was little.
I am proud to have lived through & experienced the 80's and I wear that badge with Honor. The 80's was a pivotal time in History, hit that like button if you were there.
@@BugOnAChip Sorry, can't imagine such a thing... imagine being such a colossal douch-tool and being so unhappy with your own life that you have go troll other people's comments in a miserable attempt to bring them down to your miserable level of existence.
Favorite holiday song ever, for the past 32 years. Watching DMC's Mom in the video brings happy tears of joy. Thank you, Run-DMC, for sharing this gift of amazing holiday jam!
Ah YES...............back in the 80's when Rap consisted of an actual RAP.........and some Funky-ass beats to go with it........nothing MORE!!! DMC rocked it!!!
Spectre Jordan it's 2017 and me and my dad remembered run dmc so, as me knowing this when I was 9/ 3, years ago. I put this on because I knew this song so we'll, so when it was Christmas, I didn't put it on, till I went to my dad's house.I agree on it being Christmas music :)
When this song first came on the radio I jumped up quick and popped a cassette in my Panasonic Boom Box and started recording at “moms cooking chicken and collard greens”. Those were the days. I still have that tape.
And on this Christmas Day 2023...Stay safe and be nice to one another.Even those you do not know....Now for my holiday Movie Fest.....Starting off with that Timeless Classic.....DIE HARD 1....Have a Great day....
You young people don't realize what a hit this was in 1987. Back then, at this time of year, all you could hear on the radio, over and over, was garbage like The Little Drummer Boy or "Gramma Got Run Over by a Reindeer." Then suddenly "It's Christmastime in Hollis, Queens! Mom's cookin' chicken and collard greens!" It was like a blast of fresh air.
Who listening to this in 2024

2025 😊
I am

In the dead of summer at that😅
This song is proof that Die Hard is a Christmas classic!
What does this song have to do with Die Hard?
@@TayDaley Argyll, down in the limo, raiding the mini-bar, having his own party.
@@SlideRulePirateI’ll have to check it out
@@SlideRulePiratedefinitely one of the best comic relief characters ever 👌
1988, argyle & mclaine rolling up to nagataki tower plaza in a '80's limo playing this. Once you hear & see it, never goes away😝
The Christmas season doesn't officially begin until I hear this classic.
Next is Hans falling from Nakatomi Tower.
Absolutely
Facts🤣🤣
Amen to that!!!
Don't forget the Christmas Rap
THIS IS CHRISTMAS MUSIC!
And Die Hard is a christmas movie!
Yes it is@!
Coming from Jacob Sherlock Peralta as well?
Damn right!
The greatest Christmas movie.
No way 😱😱😱😱😱
R.I.P. Jam Master Jay
he is so missed
Notice the difference in messaging here!!!
Don't steal and do the right thing, it pays off!!!
Not the same music as today.
Props to Run DMC!
Props to DIE HARD for making me love this Christmas classic. 🎄
I found this from 'The Office'.
@@Musicienne-DAB1995there's always a millennial to ruin this fine Gen-X moment
rewatching Die Hard for the x time, never realized this classic was in there until today, may this is EPIC
It was fire. Homie said. This is a Christmas carol.

I have to hear this song every Christmas. I wish more stations would add this song to their Christmas song list.
Play's in orlando. Shout out star 94.5 fm.
Try the app.
“THIS IS CHRISTMAS MUSIC!”
But it’s always that stupid Mariah Carey song, I wish this and Father Christmas played more
Me too, I'm blowing it up now!!!! Every Christmas I have to have some Run DMC
this is how rap started, fun and happy. I play this every year during the holidays and I laugh every time.1987 I was 15 and still love these guys.
Was 16 back then - Christmas without it just won’t do.
Same here! Born in "72 and this song gets the Christmas fun started.
I was 14. Decades go by fast.
Rap started a decade before this with the Sugar Hill Gang and Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five.

John Mclane "Don't you have any Christmas music?"
Argile "This IS Christmas music!"
Just watched that today
ua-cam.com/video/OR07r0ZMFb8/v-deo.html
Just got done with die hard right now … a movie as old as me 🤣
I saw it on ultrahd 4k today and
Looks fantastic in 4k and been one of my favorite Christmas movies since I saw it in theaters at age six
Don't you have any Christmas movie?
This IS a Christmas movie (Die Hard).
RUN DMC are 100% Rap Royalty. They produced one of the Greatest modern Christmas songs ever. Huge love for them.
Shout-out to my man Argyle. Best limo driver in L.A. who introduced this song to me back in 1988.
Just saw Die Hard for the first time, and that's what brought me here!
@@sarahb.7175 That part catches you by surprise but it fits ...
Not one rapper today has the guts and heart to do a song like this.
Edit holy crap how did I get so many likes?! TYSM!
Sad facts
I will watch and see.😉👌🏾
Every other rapper is way more self serious - either gangsta gritty or sociopolitically conscious.
Well Tyler, The Creator did the soundtrack to the grinch so kinda
Stop comparing old and new its annoying
The illest Christmas song of all times
And still loved by many , myself included .
Guessing you've never heard the song that they sampled this one from? It's called Backdoor Santa by Clarence Carter. Major props to Run-DMC for having such good taste!
UA-cam search. "Crisis - Christmas In The Ghetto"
Michael Giovinazzi yeah heard about it years ago when I was younger and that song is so awesome. Now that I’m an adult I get what it’s saying lol 😂
The best damn Christmas song ever, my parents hated when song would come on because I would reenact the video!!!!!
Brings back memories. My grandma loved this song. Rip grandma
Sorry for your loss. My grandma made x-mas but sees gone to me it's another day
My grandmum was anti rap oh p.s may she requesiat in pace.
I remember getting the album "a very special Christmas" when it came out and me and my brother would get so hype when this song came on. We were little skinny white kids(me 7, him 11) jumping around. And we would have to wait for it, cuz of course it was a tape and my parents didn't want us "wearing out the buttons" by rewinding too much lol
That’s so cool. Cool Grandma.
Your grandma had great music taste. This is a hip-hop holiday classic. May she rest in power.
If you don't like this song, you got problems. Cause this song was the shit back in the day and still is today.......
Don't forget the past!
Sooo true man!
Word my brother
Yes! It still is....
If you don't like this song, you are a scrooge ass; big time.
Back when rappers had a sense of humor.
Yeah none of that Hadadabadada crap
@@GSmashGaming I Know Right?
listen to tom macdonald his joke is that he says he can rap
@@GSmashGaming may i ask what song you’re referencing here😭
Back when everybody had a sense of humor.
greatest Christmas song ever featured in the greatest Christmas movie ever, Die Hard
B Diddy I’m torn about which Christmas movie I like more, Die Hard or Lethal Weapon but hell I sure do enjoy both of them as much as I did when they came out
Finally! An intelligent person who agrees that Lethal Weapon and Die Hard are Christmas movies!!
On Her Majesty’s Secret Service is the first Christmas action movie.
R.i.p. Jam Master Jay. 😢
Merry Christmas
🙌
This is SUCH a great song! I'm not a hip hop fan, but Run DMC has ALWAYS been in a class of their own.
On Santa bro
ADDIAS BEFORE KANYE TOOK OVER
Yes, it's interesting that Run DMC in particular had such appeal outside of hip hop.
John: “Don’t you have any Christmas music?”
Limo driver: “This is Christmas music!”
With the cassette deck...1987
I was listening to this on a cassette deck in my 1978 Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon that I had to start with a screwdriver😆!
Thanks Argyle!
These are my Christmas Carol's
Yep. ☃️🎊🎄👍
So glad I grew up in the 80's and got to see them in concert.
Dead maye
Were they good?

Happy Holiday Everyone

"Don't you have any Christmas music?"
....."..Maaaan! This IS Christmas music!"
lol good movie
Luis Fernando Argyle had some JAMS in his limo!
country christmas
Why do Christmas music have to be the same??? Why can't this song be considered a Christmas song
Just like how Die Hard is an actual Christmas movie.
Best hip hop Christmas song ever recorded
What does it have to contest it?
100% completely agree. Love this tune.
@@Hellwyck The only other song I can think is Christmas Rapping by Kurtis Blow
Is the santa bill cosby?
Apathy
Wonderful xmas time
I couldn't tell you what I had for dinner last night, but almost 30 years later I can still rap the lyrics!
hell yeah!!!
As I would have said in the day...WORD!
Yes..🤣👍
That's what happens with age it's amazing what we remember lol
❤
It's not the winter holiday season until I see this video! This has always been one of my favorite Christmas songs regardless of genre.
I could've written this comment yesterday, the first time I heard it for the season!
This song is now part of our holiday tradition. See y'all next year ✌🏻❤
Hope you’re having a great holiday!
2024…Coming soon

This song is way harder to karaoke than you would think
Especially after a drink or seven

@@williammetcalf7239 Amazing, wow!
For most white kids growing up in the 80s in the burbs or rural areas, Run DMC was our first introduction to rap. Then LL Cool J. Still my two favs.
I grew up in Rosedale, Queens in the 80s - I had both. 40 years later, Darryl McDaniels is my North NJ neighbor

***** aww come on man...it's a modern classic 😆
John Conti
i think you'll find it difficult to jam a single ice pick in both your ears
Lazer Ramon it takes a little determination but I think it can be done lol
John Conti Yes, an engineer could probably calculate the required initial force.
There are 2 kinds of people: those who say Die Hard is a Christmas Movie and those who are wrong.
One of the freshest Christmas raps of all times hands down
I’m listening to it ny ret ny👍🏿
Christmas doesn’t begin until this song gets played!! Merry Christmas to you all!!
Run DMC still has the sound that cant be topped
