Just saw it on the news and apparently confirmed by someone I know listening to NYPD radio. Jason Mizell, aka Jam Master Jay of Run-DMC was shot in the head and killed in Queens earlier tonight. Run DMC was one of the first rap groups to hit mainstream successs back in the 80's.
This sucks....one of the founding fathers of rap gone like that.

:disappointed:
Hard times is nothing new on me,
I'm gonna use my strong mentality
Like the cream of the crop, like the crop of the cream
Beating hard times, that is my theme
Hard times in life, hard times in death,
I'm gonna keep on fighting till my very last breath

Jam Master Jay shot to death at recording studio in Queens
By Michael E. Ross
MSNBC
Oct. 30 — Jam Master Jay, one of the stars of the groundbreaking rap group Run-DMC, was shot to death Wednesday night at a recording studio in New York City. The 37-year-old rapper, whose real name was Jason Mizell, was one of two men who were shot.
NEW YORK CITY police confirmed to MSNBC that two victims were shot inside the studio at 9010 Merrick Blvd., Queens, at about 7:30 p.m. The rapper was pronounced dead at the scene. No arrests have been made at this time, and the investigation is ongoing, police said.
The other victim survived and was transported to an area hospital, according to information from NBC affiliate WNBC.
Run-DMC, formed in 1982, was one of the pioneer groups of rap music. After signing with a small label, Profile Records, for an advance of $2,500, they immediately scored an underground hit with “It’s Like That.” That song and the B-side track, “Sucker MCs,” marked the group as one to watch, single-handedly giving rise to one of rap’s most prevalent terms, and almost becoming a genre in its own right. Many critics consider the single — with its spare, stripped-down sound and the attendant “B-boy” streetwise fashion sense — as the sound that gave rise to modern hip hop.
Arista Records, Run-DMC’s label, had released a new compilation of the group’s greatest hits in September.

Growing up, I can remember buying RUN-DMC. IT was my first ever rap album. I bought it on tape, and I wore that thing out. I thought they were fresh, and innovative. Buying that album way back in 1984 changed me and the way I listened to music.
I'll miss you Jay. Rest in peace brother.
Jam Master Jay
Kick off shoes, jump on the jock
Listen to the Jam Master as he starts to rock
His name is Jay and he's on his way
To be the best DJ in the US of A
J-A-Y are the letters of his name
Cutting and scratching are the aspects of his game
So check out the master as he cuts these jams
And look at us with the mics in our hands
Then take a count, 1-2-3
Jam Master Jay, Run-D.M.C
He's Jam Master Jay, the big beat blaster
He gets better cause he know he has to
In '84 he'll be a little faster
And only practice makes a real Jam Master
We're live as can be, not singing the blues
We got to tell you all the good news
The good news is there is a crew
Not 5, not 4, not 3, just 2
Two MC's who are claim the fame
And all other things won't be the same
Because it's about time for a brand new group
Run-D.M.C to put you up on the scoop
We make the fly girls scream in ecstacy
We rock the freshest rhymes at a party
We put all the fellas in a daze
It's everyone that we amaze
And we got the master of a disco scratch
There's not a break that he can't catch
Jam Master Jay that is his name
And all wild DJ's he will tame
Behind the turntables is where he stands
Then there is the movement of his hands
So when asked who's the best, y'all should say:
Run-D.M.C and Jam Master Jay
Jam Master Jay is the one in charge
It's up to him to rock beats that are truly large
He is the master of the scratch and cut
So move your arms, so move your legs
So won't you move your butt
We're not talking ground, we're not talking sky
We're not talking low, we're not talking high
We're not talking big, we're not talking small
We want all of the people on off the wall
We're not talking night, we're not talking day
But we're talking 'bout Jam Master Jay

:disappointed: Damn..... that sucks.... RIP JMJ
<div align="center"><span style='font-size:15pt;line-height:100%'>Jam Master Jammin' </span>
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
He's a one man band, in his own right
Jam-Master jams to the broad daylight
No instruments needed, just two record players
A stage, a crowd and two rhyme-sayers
The creed is to hear, so have no fear
Definition defined, the position is clear
You couldn't be late, hesitate to debate
Jam-Master is here, and you could not wait
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
Now he's the Jam-Master, and we're the MCs
Like lightning and thunder, we're knocking down trees
While sucker DJs are busting out seeds
My man Jam-Master scratching hard crossings
So why don't you listen, or you'll be missin
The cuts and the scratches, bass, treble and the mission
The force and the power, coming hour after hour
So get up off the wall, don't you be a wall flower
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
The alert is red, this is what we said
The meaning of Master means he's our head
The meaning of Jam is a big party
The records that he plays for the crowds of plenty
And when he comes on, the crowds go off
It's all hard rock, there's nothing soft
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
He has a little soul, to rock n' roll
Every record that he touches turns to gold
He's well conducted, self-instructed
His styles were plied, heavily constructed
Mechanically inclined, and if you don't mind
We add spice to your life, time after time
And think about times, where he's a long laster
We rock our rhymes for the Jam-Master
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
His name's Jam-Master, call him Jay
The crowd goes wild when he starts to play
Everything is correct, and A-OK
Jam-Master's on a move, but his sounds will stay
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
From end to start, start to end
Not only does he scratch, but he's our friend
We could not wait to let you see
The things that he does for D and me
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam
Couldn't wait to see Jam-Master Jammin'
Couldn't wait to see the Master Jam

This does suck but what the Hell does Run Dmc have to do with East Coast vs West Coast as I heard on channel 4 news this morning. I know they just did a tour with Aerosmith and Kid Rock but Wasn't there career basically over in the 80's.
From the album "Down With The King"
"Do or die!" (2X)
[Run]
Come on stand up, still-a, a nigga that's gettin iller
If you're weak and/or you're sleepin
(then what?) you get the cap I peel up
And til-I, I kill a sucker duck dope dealer
Sold to my brother but the ghetto stands stiller
Still-a, standin, commandin and demandin
from the get-go got the ghetto get a medal cause it's standin
I'm makin a buck, they takin a buck, the tax that attacks the world
A system built to diss em (who?) the boys (who) and the girls
They starvin, we're starvin, keepin a nine to five an'
try to hold us down, keep us out but we be risin
Risin, risin, risin like the cream
Stiggidy stiggidy stiggidy still, stiggidy standin for the team
Chorus One: Run-D.M.C. (repeat 2X)
We put three in the head
and the little one said roll over, roll over
"Do or die!"
[D.M.C.]
I run amuk upon the sucker duck punks that I'm steppin on
The one you're bettin on you're lucky like a leprechaun
I turn my weapon on my record ?? ??
Mic checkin and I'm wreckin and I'm checkin on
So check it check it out, I'm gonna rock the house
Without a doubta I'ma shout about to turn it out
So take a step BACK, I gotta wreck TRACK
I got a rep for breakin necks, I get respect black
(Damn Damn!) Darryl Mack, you're all of that
They pray they can save the crazy rat
They attack to mack to move him off the map
could never tell I fell, to Hell and back
It's beautiful -- the mic makes hits
to the dirty, stinkin, son of a.... (auuuuuuhh)
I'm mad and glad and sad and highly upset
So don't do nothin that you might regret
Cause I'll stomp that ass, like a little insect (c'mon)
clean off my kicks (c'mon) clean off my kicks (c'mon)
clean off my kicks and then STEP!
(stiggidy-stick, step!)
Chorus One
Chorus Two: Run-D.M.C.
So they all rolled over and one fell out
We put two in the head
and the little one said, roll over, roll over!
"Do or die!"
We put two in the head
and the little one said..
[Run]
Now c'mon step to me do me pursue me you never knew me
You'll be sleepin and you slept on the step
And now your crew be sweatin me like you're sweatin the sweat
Another groupie dissin D, now you're back on the set
I'm makin em takin em breakin em all
Diss em one by one
You make the mistake of thinkin I'm soft
Thinkin Run ain't the one
From eighty-three and they be seein me and D and they front
?? the suckers from the ruckus that's about to become
Reel it back, come REWIND it's about that time
Feelin wack, ate the swine it's about that swine
in your body couldn't keep up at the end of the set
Bet ya beat ya that I teach ya and you're stuck until death
(That's what I'm sayin)
Chorus One
Chorus Three: Run-D.M.C.
We put two in the head
and the little one said
We put one in the head
and the little one said, roll over, roll over!
"Do or die!"
{*Jam Master Jay cuts*}
"Do or die!"
"Do or die!"
"Do.. or die!"
"Do or die!" "Do.."
"Do or die!"
"Do or die!"
"Do or die!"
"Do or die!" ..

I was a huge fan back in the days of Raising Hell and Tougher Than Leather. They were pioneers, brought rap into the mainstream along with the Beastie Boys. JMJ will be missed. He was never down with the whole east coast vs. west coast feuds, but the media is so clueless they will run with that angle. If a rapper dies, they automatically attribute it to how violent rap music is and basically use something like this to further perpetuate sterotypes.

:disappointed: Your terrible expertise in sports doesn't end there.
This is sudden, I didn't know till I just read it here, this is really sad. My 1st Rap Album was also a Run DMC album. Tougher Than Leather is where it all started for me.
