what caused the attack?

talkin **** like tupac?
 
Why coulndntve they shot some crap person like Eminiem instead?
 
Yeah, this farking sucks. So much other crap music out there, and it has to be Run-DMC that gets shot. :cry:

JMJ was from the one rap group that didn't promote violence, drugs, gangs, whorish behavior, etc. I'm glad the news reporter from CNN at least told the public that his death has nothing to do with above-mentioned crap (at least I hope not).

Jam Master was one of the best DJs ever, classic backgrounds you still hear to this day. And it's wasn't Eminem or Biggie or Tupac or Snoop Dogg that made rap popular today.

It really was Run-DMC. The Kings of Rock, there is none higher!
 
That's a shame. Run DMC rock the house. Why not N*Sync, or some other nonsense boy band (or Gareth Gates?)
 
Man, that sucks.
 
Ive never heard of the guy, and i dont think ive heard of Run DMC. But it sounds like he was an allright guy and its a shame if that happens to anyone.

They're the band that did the first "cross over" rock / rap thing. Aerosmith were the rock band "walk this way" was the song.

A sad day.......
 
Run DMC is awesome.......my brother-in-law got me hooked on them:)
 
I don't understand why he was shot. He wasn't a gangster or anything like that. Didn't he come from a suburban middle-class neighborhood? He doesn't seem like the guy that just gets shot in the head.
 
i heard of Run-DMC for the first time yesterday and thought, "i wonder if they'll be doing any concerts soon."


that sucks. HARD!
 
This is how long it takes for justice...and worth the thread bump. But when you're involved with cocaine, you can easily surround yourself with petty hoodlums.

Over time, you tend to think your heroes practice what they preach, and sometimes they just become the lesson on how not to behave.
