Joplin is credited with the invention of "classic rag", which refined and elevated the ragtime genre above its honky-tonk and "cheap bordello" origins resulting in work that the opera historian Elise Kirk described as "more tuneful, contrapuntal, infectious, and harmonically colorful than any others of his era."

Alongside DJ Jason "Jam Master Jay" Mizell, Run and DMC achieved the first multi-platinum hip hop record with 1986's "Raising Hell". Hits including "Christmas In Hollis", "Tricky" and the sportswear endorsed "My Adidas" helped ensure their entry into Cleveland, Ohio's Rock 'N' Roll Hall Of Fame - the second hip hop artists to do so behind Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five.
