Run DMC rapper Darryl McDaniels has been talking about his struggles with mental health and how he “relates” to Kurt Cobain.

McDaniels, aka DMC, one of the icons of old skool hip hop, was talking as part of the new MSNBC docu-series My Generation. It features interviews and archival footage from celebrity narrators and explores how life was/is for Baby Boomers (born 1946 to 1964), Generation X (1965 to 1981), Millennials (born 1981 to 1996) and Gen Z (born after 1997).
