Jam Master Jay was killed inside a Queens studio in 2002 with few witnesses and no motive to explain the fatal shooting. His legacy has lived on as the acclaimed DJ for the hip hop group Run-DMC. His studio has been converted into the Hall of Fame studio owned by a new company that has maintained Jay’s legacy via painted murals and several Run-DMC memorabilia that adorns the walls.
