The 12 Jams Of Christmas: Run DMC “Christmas In Hollis”
Run DMC’s “Christmas In Hollis” was a landmark for hip-hop.
Christmas songs weren’t new to hip-hop as Kurtis Blow had “Christmas Rappin” a few years before, but “Christmas In Hollis” was the first hip-hop holiday tune to gain mainstream acceptance.
The song was featured on the 1987 charity album, A Very Special Christmas.
