Happy 56th Birthday To the Late, Great DJ Jam Master Jay!
January 21, 2021
Born on this day in 1965, “the best DJ in the U.S. of A.”, Jason William Mizell, also known as Jam Master Jay was born.

JMJ brought many into the fold of Hip Hop royalty, including DJ Scratch of EPMD, Onyx, 50 Cent, and a host of others who owe their livelihoods to Jam Master Jay.
