|TOP|Rev. Run, also known as Joseph “Run” Simmons, recently released his book “Words of Wisdom: Daily Affirmations of Faith.”

Known for over two decades as one of the most respected pioneers of hip-hop, and a founding member of the ground-breaking group Run-DMC, Reverend Run now celebrates his faith and shares it with a newly emerging hip-hop generation.

From what started from a few emails to family members and friends, inspirational phrases that Simmons sent out had spread by word of mouth, causing him to publish the book.

Today Rev. Run is the star of his own hit TV show “Run’s House” on MTV and new author of “Words of Wisdom: Daily Affirmations of Faith.” In the midst of TV shows in which foul language and disrespect are applauded, Rev. Run brings family values to TV.
