I have just heard the news of "J's" death, as I was listening to the news of the incident in New York, tears were running down my cheek. As a white boy growing up in the 80's listening to Run DMC, I learned alot about black culture through friends that I met because of the music that we shared and going to rap concerts with mynew friends. I was then able to open up the narrow minds of whites around me thus causing a better world for me and my friends to grow up in. I am truly saddened by this tragedy andreally wish that DMC had played in Raleigh, NC at the recent Aerosmith and Kid Rock concert because I would have been able to see them one more time.

With heavy heart, I give my blessings to all those in Jay's family and to all DMC fans out there!

I send my deepest condolences to jay's family and to the group. It's such a tradgedy that we have these crazy people in the world with all that's going on I feel so hurt. I'm a big fan of run dmc and for this to happen really hitss home there like family I grew up listening to there music and now we have another fallen angel.

Run DMC and Jam Master Jay have been the soundtrack to my life. I'm too destroyed to say anything else. This is my worst nightmare.

My heart goes out to the entire Run-DMC family: Run, DMC, their respective families, etc. Jason will be VERY missed!

The very first live show I ever attended was the Together Forever tour featuring Run-DMC and the Beastie Boys (Madison Square Garden, NYC 1985). After hearing "Sucker MC's", I never looked back.

R.I.P., JMJ!

I have no real idea what to say right now but I want to get some of my feelings out about this. I have been listening to RUN D.M.C. as long as I can remember. "Walk This Way" was my first favorite song. I still listen to it every time its on the air. I feel privileged that I have seen Run D.M.C. in concert. The world is a darker place tonight.

R.I.P. Jam Master Jay

My heart goes out to Run, D.M.C., and all of their family and friends. This was such a senseless act of violence perpetrated upon a great talent and a great man.
