DMC Shuts Down Belief He’s Running for President

Darryl “DMC” McDaniels recently wrapped one leg of his career at the Hip-Hop 50 Live event when he concluded his performing run as a member of Run-DMC. What’s next? Not a bid for the Oval Office.

DMC was at an Inter Miami game and rightwinged website Outkick flipped his “running for president starting today” as a fact. Speaking with AllHipHop, DMC shut down any talks of his presidency.

“That’s why media today is a joke,” DMC said. “They just run with anything before even confirming it. I would never run for president. I get more done as a representative of all people. The point I was trying to make is the arts succeed where politics and religion fails.”
