Run's House is an American reality television series that debuted on October 13, 2005. The series chronicles the family life of former Run–D.M.C. rapper and hip-hop music pioneer Joseph Simmons, also known as Rev Run. Its theme song and show name are from the Run-D.M.C. album Tougher Than Leather. It was filmed in the Simmons family home in Saddle River, New Jersey; the Simmons offices in Manhattan, New York; and the apartment shared by Joseph's daughters, Vanessa and Angela, in Los Angeles, California.

Joseph Ward Simmons (born (1964-11-14) November 14, 1964 (age 52) in Hollis, Queens) is one of the founding members of hip-hop group Run–D.M.C. He is known as DJ Run, Joey Simmons or Rev Run, which is a play on his religious title. He is the youngest brother of artist Daniel Simmons, Jr. and Def Jam Records co-founder Russell Simmons. He entered the hip hop scene as a DJ for Kurtis Blow. He assumed the alias "Son of Kurtis Blow", but later changed it to "Run".

He became a reverend at Zoe Ministries, a controversial church that solicits monetary pledges for spiritual enlightenment. After that he changed his name to "Rev Run". He met his second wife Justine when they were teenagers; they later reconnected. She is the mother of Diggy, Russy and Miley.

Justine is the wife of Joseph Simmons and mother of their four children, as well as stepmother to Joseph Simmons' three children from previous marriage to Vaughn. She sells a jewelry line called "Brown Sugar" that was featured on HSN in 2007.
