When i heard the news of JAM MASTER JAYS murder today, i almost fainted! RUN DMC were not about gangster this, and bitch that. Why this has happened, no-one (at time of writting) knows? What i do know, is that the music biz has lost a good musician (yes...MUSICIAN) and the fans have lost a hero, and a nice guy.
Well it's heavens turn to have JAY now, and he'll be up there rocking the decks, and making sure that the beat continues.
As for the person that took this young life, you don't want to know what i'm wishing them.
Peace to RUN and D, and to their families, you are all in my prayers.
peace
