It might not flow off the tongue as smoothly as some of their rhymes, but Run-DMC JMJ Way is finally here. The sign is at the intersection of 205th Street and Hollis Avenue in Queens, and you can see some video of the unveiling, which took place yesterday, here. The Daily News reports back from the ceremony, where DJ Run told the gathered crowd, "I lived right down that block," and DMC thanked the neighborhood locals on hand, who he says made them who they were. The late Jam Master Jay's mother was in attendance as well, wearing a shirt with her son's picture on it; she told the crowd, "This is a proud day for my whole family." Reportedly the documentary titled Two Turntables And A Microphone, which "will dissect Jay's death and celebrate his life," will be released later this year (see a preview after the jump).




In honor of their slain band member, they could have just named it JMJ Way - would have rolled off the tongue better as well. But noooooo....
"Onxy"?
It's like that, and that's the way it is.
Cool!
Thumbs up to that. Practitioners of the true spirit of hip hop, before it was corrupted with misogyny and violence.
RIP JMJ. Glad y'all finally got tha props you deserve... but we wish you were still here. :(
"DJ Run told the gathered crowd, "I lived right down that block," and DMC thanked the neighborhood locals on hand, who he says made them who they were."
Was he using a teleprompter when he made that statement or was he ad libbing?
Why isn't it just Jam Master Jay Way? Everyone knows who he is. RUN DMC JMJ looks janky.
This will be a very popular street sign to steal.
