Run-DMC Taps Paid, Inc. to Create Online Home, Support Brand Online


WORCESTER, MA--(Marketwire - September 17, 2007) - Run-DMC, the band widely recognized as the kings of hip-hop and the template for rap music for more than two decades now, has chosen Paid, Inc. (OTCBB: PAYD) to create and maintain the online home for Run-DMC's global community of fans and support the Run-DMC brand online through initiatives such as online merchandise sales, downloadable multi-media content, and interactive marketing programs. The new web site will give Run-DMC the opportunity to interact directly with their fans, as well as offer official collectible merchandise and programs that fans know are authentic and the best quality.

Although Run-DMC disbanded after the tragic murder of Jam Master Jay in 2002, the band continues to attract legions of fans, including artists such as Kid Rock, Ice-T and Eminem, who revere Run-DMC for setting the stage for much of today's music. Literally thousands of fans continue to follow the astoundingly successful careers of the band's remaining members, Rev Run (aka Joseph Simmons) and Darryl "DMC" McDaniels.

Run-DMC band members are continually in the spotlight and keeping Run-DMC visible through Emmy nominations (for DMC's VH1 special "DMC: My Adoption Journey"), hit TV shows ("Run's House" on MTV), authoring books, sponsoring philanthropic events and their live musical performances. Although they have extremely divergent and active careers today, Run-DMC members wanted to provide a central destination for their fans.

The totally revamped web site, www.RunDMC.com, which is expected to launch within the next month, will feature up-to-the minute news on band members' current projects; an interactive forum for fans; a multi-media forum where fans can access music, photos and videos -- both old and new; a store with Run-DMC trademark items; discography and a multitude of interactive fan activities.

Keith Garde, Paid celebrity services president, said, "The members of Run-DMC continue as a dynamic force in hip-hop and rap, with their musical influence in the DNA of nearly every group today. Both DMC and Rev Run have given so much to the music industry and have used their fame to help others and make the world a better place. This online community gives them the opportunity to communicate with their fans and keep the spirit of Run-DMC as a vital force in the lives of music fans of all ages. Having worked with DMC for several years, Paid celebrity services is excited to expand its role and assist Run-DMC in supporting its brand online in new and creative ways in keeping with the group's reputation for setting new standards."
