6 years ago today Jam Master Jay was gunned down in a Queens recording studio. Some say Kenneth McGriff ordered the hit on JMJ because he defied a blacklist of 50 Cent after 50 made a song called”Ghetto Qu’ran” in which the lyrics mention McGriff. This was never proven.
Nevertheless, Jam Master Jay is one of the pioneers of hip hop and one of the greatest DJ’s that ever lived.
May he rest in peace.
