Jam Master Jay: 1965-2002

elSicomoro · 10-31-2002, 10:21 AM

Jason Mizell (aka Jam Master Jay), DJ for hip-hop pioneers Run-DMC, died after being shot in the head at a New York City recording studio. He was 37.

The NY Times paints a picture of a loyal neighborhood guy. Bummer.

Ja. It's pretty fucking retarded, 'cause Run DMC is about as far from gangsta rap as you can get. I grew up listening to "It's Tricky". I hadn't followed his personal life real closely, but everything I've read since Wednesday has been pretty much what I'd assume it to be. Run is a minister if I recall correctly. That's the sort of rappers Run DMC were. Just un-fucking-real that someone would assassinate him.

It seems to me that this was the first rap group to ever break the color barrier on a national scale in the genre of rap music anyway. They shortly thereafter teamed up with Steven Tyler to do a remix of Aerosmith's "walk this way". Run DMC was always a very upbeat sort of group to listen to, and I found out recently that out of every and all three teens I have polled so far, none of them had any idea that Jimmy Pop didn't write "Tricky". Or why he screamed "the singer for def leppard's only got one arm", so many times on the hooray for boobies cd. Run DMC was at one time a very big influence in my own creative endeavors, I surely hope that the guy is still alive under another name because the music of RUN was another very important part of an ongoing movement to open closed minds. It worked wonders for me!

And it's in the song "Why's Everybody Always Picking On Me?"... which is on the album "One Fierce Beer Coaster"...

"The drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm! The drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm! ..."

Ladies and gentlemen, we would like to present for your viewing and listening pleasure...the man who has three arms! Actually they are legs, but seriously James- I stand corrected. Very well done! And now back to our reguarly scheduled broadKast, K0RN!! Beavis said that they should have called themselves "KORNHOLIO". My life in a nutshell right now with a cartoon character, and currently are running quite low on toilet paper.

I am sure you are every bit as dissapointed I am that Jimmy Pop was running out of creative juice as he secretly planned with the producer to release "one fierce beer coaster" as a mere ploy to make more money upon their greatest CD ever, "Hooray For Boobies". Once again, it is such an awful lot to remember. In fact, I dreaded listening to "one fierce beer coaster" so much in comparison to the pleasures I felt while listening to "hooray for boobies" that I gave it away to a friend the very day I bought it! Even Coal Chamber had a better version of "fire water burn", although it was entitled "sway", which I am just about to do into my bed. Head first, my own I think.

Beer Coaster was released some 4 years before Hooray for Boobies.

Tasteless joke of the day:
What has nine arms and sucks?

Def Leppard?

What's red, white and black and gets stuck in revolving doors?

Naturally, I like mine better. Yours is still funny, though.

How do you get a nun pregnant?

Fuck her.
