Run-D.M.C. is the self titled debut studio album by American hip hop group Run-D.M.C., originally released on March 27, 1984, by Profile Records.

With Run-D.M.C., Run-D.M.C. came to be regarded by music critics as pioneering the movement of new school hip hop of the mid-1980s. Run-D.M.C. was considered groundbreaking for its time, presenting a tougher, more hardcore form of hip-hop. The album's sparse beats and aggressive rhymes were in sharp contrast with the light sound that was popular in hip hop at the time.
