Run-DMC and Jam Master Jaaaaaay

By Mark La Monica

I'm the king of blogs, there is none higher,
All you sucka bloggers should call me sire.

To burn my kingdom, you must use fire,
I won't stop blogging til I retire!

Just a little paraphrasing from "King of Rock" by Run-DMC. Why, you ask? Well, why not? But there's another reason.

Thursday night, Hammerstein Ballroom hosts the J.A.M. Awards, which will highlight the positive possibilities rap music. It also helps honor Jam Master Jay, DJ to legendary old-school rap pioneers Run-DMC.

Hyped up by hearing this news last week, I whipped up this little video tribute. Enjoy. (You'll most likely have to sit through a 15-second commercial first. Nothing I can do about that. It's how they pay the bills, one of which is my paycheck.)
