    aint that a bitch?


    the sad part is, we'll probably never know what really went down in that studio. everyone is saying he was not the kind of person to get involved with gang shit, drugs or anything like that. of course the music reflects that...so you are left to wonder, what the fuck happened? who shot him? why were they there.

    I get a feeling we'll never know the truth

    I don't like rap, I never listened to run dmc, but from what I understand, he was the best. It was indeed a loss to the music industry

    coincidentally, last weekend nico scored this book for free at the bookshop in the fashion mart.."Vibe's History of Rap". A big thick colorful book with the chronology of rap. I started thumbing through it the night he was shot while listening to the free CD that came with it, which indeed has a Run DMC tune on it.

    Coincidence.


    i was thinking about this.

    He was shot in the head, seemingly at close range, another shot in the leg. Two peeps that had just buzzed in the studio. There were other people in the studio who went unharmed. They havent reported any other gun fire. Just two shots. Once clearly accurate, the other entirely off. Where's the sense in this? Information is being withheld, no? Do you think the family is hiding something? Thats certainly their right, but god damn if it isnt sad and curious at the same time.

    they shot him in the leg to stun and frighten him, and then shot him in the chest to kill him. that would be my guess.

    as i understand it, Jay was shot point blank in the head and another guy in the studio was shot in the leg.

    It sounds like perhaps they came in, shot Jay and as they made their way out shot the other guy.
