The Slim Shady rapper was on hand to induct Run-DMC members Joseph “DJ Run” Simmons, Darryl “D.M.C.” McDaniels and the late Jason “Jam Master Jay” Mizell into the 24-year-old elite club.
Rocking the trio’s signature black fedora and black leather jacket, Em said on stage: “They broke away from the pack by being the pack. They were the baddest of the bad and the coolest of the cool. Run-DMC changed my life.”
He added: “There’s three of them and if you grew up with hip hop like I did, they were the Beatles.”
The 24th Annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony aired live on Fuse TV.

I’m the KING OF ROCK, there is none higher
Sucker MC’s should call me sire
To burn my kingdom, you must use fire
I won’t stop rockin’ till I retire!
It’s never been my style of music really but Eminem is an awesome rapper and a lot of his raps are very clever so I have respect for that. It’s funny you never see anything of him anymore, there were all those rumors that he had got super fat wasn’t there? I think honestly he had to get out of the whole rap world before he got popped off. He was protecting himself and his daughter no doubt. He probably got in a little too deep so it was a wise move for him to just get out of it.
The Greatest!! Much respect to RUN DMC
