Über diesen Titel

 What happens when a "washed-up" 70s rock band and a trio of hip-hop pioneers are forced into a room with an $8,000 check and a sledgehammer? In this high-energy episode of Accidental Legends, hosts Matt and Dirk dive into the 1986 remake of "Walk This Way"—a track they call the "cultural defibrillator" of the 80s. Explore the unlikely collision between Aerosmith, then struggling with a $20 million drug habit and fading relevance, and Run-DMC, the "Kings of Queens" who were ready to bust through more than just physical walls.Why You Can’t Miss This Episode:
