50 Produces New Jam Master Jay Documentary

by LYRICALTHOUGHT

TUESDAY OCTOBER 28, 2008

Six years have passed since Jam Master Jay was  murdered. But the memory of the Hip Hop pioneer has yet to fade, and now fans will have the opportunity to get to know the famous DJ and member of Run DMC a little bit better thanks to an upcoming documentary executive produced by 50 Cent.

According to MTV, the documentary will feature interviews with people who were close to the late pioneer, sharing their memories of him. Some of the people chosen to be interviewed so far are, Onyx, Reverend Run, Russell Simmons, and of course Mr. Curtis Jackson himself.

Before 50 became a superstar in the industry, he worked with Jam Master Jay, and looked up to him as a mentor playing a major part in 50’s early career. Mystery still lingers behind the Dj’s death since no killer was ever found, 50 thinks that this documentary will make the death of Jam Master Jay a lot clearer to fans who do not know the entire story.

In other news…

  • 50 Cent hooks up with Gizmoz ,...
  • 50 Cent Files Defamation Suit ...
  • 50 Cent Speaks about new movie...

“It's not a random act of violence.  People just don't walk in your studio, shoot and kill you with several other people around, and no one knows anything, I believe the documentary sheds light on it a little bit.  It creates a clearer picture of what actually happened at that point.  People just heard, 'Jam Master Jay got shot.’  They don't understand the circumstances. The film creates some clarity.”

The title of the documentary will be, “Two Turntables and a Microphone.” A release date for the documentary has not yet been revealed.

hell yea...they can catch anybody in the world who committed a murder but all of a sudden when they kill a rapper they commit 'the perfect crime?'
who killed 2pac?
who killed biggie?
who killed JMJ?
AND im sure stack bundles case would be the same way if they didnt take the dude out before the police could get him
bullshit..

it's because of that retarded "no snitching" thing
In some cases, its bullshit to snitch, but some people think when you see someone get murdered for no real reason, you cant provide details because that counts as "snitching" apparently

True indeed. Especially the ones that were murdered in public! Pac, B.I.G. etc. I can't take a piss in the street without some type of law enforcement involvement, but these high profile people can get killed in the middle of the street and noone knows shit! But on the other hand if someone is crazy enough to kill a famous person in public in the middle of the street, than they are definately crazy enough to have whoever tells on him taken care of. As far as the documentary goes, I feel like 50 is doing this for his friend JMJ, and not for some publicity so props to him for that. PEACE Come check out The Livin' Large Morning Show Hip-Hop/N.F.L. Special w/ Bobby Livin', and Tony Large Sundays 11am-1pm EST at www.clubmegamix.com.

man some of you guys are retarded. BIG and Pac both got killed in ways that most unsolved murder cases go. some dudes shot em and bailed. people die like that every day and the case goes unsolved you just dont hear about it. obviously its easier to bust weezy or DMX for drugs than it is to solve a murder, you guys need to stop and think before you speak.

Why should they protect and help people that continue to discourage the community from advancing and making something of themselves? If I was a cop I wouldn't give 2 shits about someone who was killed who is feeding crack to people in the community nor a rapper who says fuck the police.

Rappers dig themselves holes by making this "no snitching" campaign a pop culture thing because mostly every kid doesn't actually know what its context is. To witness a murder and talk to the police is the right thing to do. It is only snitching if you were involved or have something to gain from someone else going down. The no snitching campaign means no one talks when these rappers are shot. It is their own fault.

it has been rumored in the past that 50 was involved. but that was just a rumor. as far as the documentary, maybe some info will come out about the killer. jmj's family wants his killer caught, and the have the right to want justice for jay.

It's kinda funny how much ya'll are blaming the 'no snitchin' code for murders not being caught. It really just goes 2 show how FEW of you are actually in the streets. Snitching's almost popular now. Everybodys snitchin on everybody out here & it's VERY rare that you see anybody do anything about it. That's why the FEDs have like a 97% conviction rate. No Snitching is just some shit people holla in a song & wear on a t-shirt nowadays. If they really wanted 2 find the people that killed OUR artists they could. They just don't care... Oh & to Celtics, if they're not interested in helping us because of there personal issues with our music than they need 2 stop arresting us too... Can I get a witness? Lol...

I agree I am just trying to have people look at both sides of the situation. Not all police are bad people and have vendettas against the public. There is obviously animosity between certain individuals of each side, but you have to admit the average rapper is not too smart about keeping their actions low key. If you have someone yelling out in public they have some white on them and a cop hears it, he is going to assume that the person has it and investigate. The same goes with rappers, they make it known how they roll, unfortunately it bites them in the ass because they somehow believe they aren't susceptible to the common sense of others and don't think they will test them on their claims.

I aint supporting the police im jus playin devils advocate here.

As far as snitchin is concerned,all these "gangsta" rappers saying shit like "coke money keeps pouring in" or "i pop glocks all day" are snitching on themselves in a way,they are calling the feds to investigate them,then they complain that the system is biased while they snitching on themselves...Its like me running on the streets and saying I JUST KILLED A NIGA or I JUST SOLD A KILO MOTHERFUKAZ...Niggaz need to get real and stop being hipocrites

If you believe that 50 Cent had something to do with Jam Master Jay's death or that MLK's killer was never really caught...you just might be right. Until there is solid evidence linking an individual or group to a murder, the case itself is still open...

And you can't believe everything that you hear in the media or in the bullshit "Commission Reports" because either valuable information was omitted, or it is presented in such a way where it's difficult to read between the lines...

I'll make it clear in regards to the last statement that I made: we are being told the truth, but some really important parts of a newsarticle are downplayed or just are never mentioned (think Building 7 during 9/11, a major surplus of oil in the United States as we speak and dual citizenships/expatriation discouraged).
