Dee Dee King

Rapper Dee Dee King is actually rocker <a href="spotify:artist:1GhAsqSOsQVkFtJZ4XriSC">Dee Dee Ramone</a> going through a whopping identity crisis in the late '80s. As <a href="spotify:artist:1co4F2pPNH8JjTutZkmgSm">Ramones</a> drummer Marky Ramone put it, "<a href="spotify:artist:3xHrpvVml7z3dOphgKFWwg">Dee Dee</a> isn't a rap artist, he's a rock artist. I thought it was sort of unusual. One day he started wearing Mercedes Benz chains around his neck and gold rings. It was crazy. You know, I really think he lost his mind."

After leaving <a href="spotify:artist:1co4F2pPNH8JjTutZkmgSm">the Ramones</a> in 1989, <a href="spotify:artist:3xHrpvVml7z3dOphgKFWwg">Dee Dee</a> also spent the '90s writing <a href="spotify:artist:1co4F2pPNH8JjTutZkmgSm">Ramones</a> songs (including six tracks on <a href="spotify:artist:1co4F2pPNH8JjTutZkmgSm">the Ramones</a>' 1995 Adios Amigos), doing some production work, recording a solo rock 45 with a new band called the Chinese Dragons, and releasing a pair of solo rock LPs. ~ Matt Carlson, Rovi
