Jam Master Jay, DJ of Run DMC, was shot and killed yesterday (30st Oct.)in New York City.
The incident happened at a recording studio in Queens, New York, where an unidentified gunman shot Jam Master Jay in the head and wounded another person in the ankle, before escaping.
Run DMC, known for introducing hip-hop into the mainstream, and for their 1986 collaboration with Aerosmith on 'Walk This Way', and more recently a new version of 'It's Like That', released as Run-DMC Vs Jason Nevins topping the UK singles chart in 1998. They will be recalled by many of today's music fans as having contributed to the soundtrack of their past, and as such this murder will be seen as yet another musical tragedy to add to the list.

Yeah nice one, gun boy. Betcha think you've got the top cock on the block. It goes beyond just being a cunt. Some folk have worked to make something out of themselves and lead black people out of the ghetto, and then there's human waste products like you.I dearly hope you direct the next bullet through the roof of your mouth.
Re: Run DMC Rapper Murdered

it's usually written 30TH OCT not 31ST OCT. maybe DiS has it's owsn style. or maybe DiS needs to buy a dictionary cause EVERY SINGLE ARTICLE i've read until now has had bad grammar and spelling.
Re: Run DMC DJ Murdered
the second one is meant to be "its" not "it's"...type on my behalf.
it's: it is
its: belonging to

Re: Run DMC DJ Murdered
i could be wrong on this, but isn't 'it's' both an abbreviation of 'it is' and the possessive term, and 'its' is the plural?
Re: Run DMC DJ Murdered
Nope, it's is for some reason only the abbreviation and not the possessive

RIP Jam Master Jay you will always be the master in my heart and in my brain you brought hip-pop to the mainstream thank you without you i wouldn't be half the homer sexual i am now
Sorry I got the date wrong
Public apology: sorry I got the date wrong, blame my sources as I wasn't actually there at the time so I had to rely on a secondary source for the information. Unfortunately this secondary source was wrong - sorry if this caused any offence or problems.
