RAP AMBASSADOR'S REPUTATION SOILED

Newspaper says JMJ was trying to purchase cocaine

in deal gone bad.



*Many important figures in the Hip-Hop community

have banded together to celebrate the life and times of

Jam Master Jay. They call upon his nonviolent stance

and his positive activism, but a recent report in the New

York Post paints a different picture. The article, published

on Sunday, states that Curtis Scoon, the NYPD's main

suspect, and Jay went into a deal to purchase drugs from

a Los Angeles based supplier and were ripped off. This

allegedly, is what caused a rift between the two.

According to the Post, the police have a theory that

claims Scoon and Jay each paid $15,000 to buy 2 kilos of

cocaine. After the money was raised, the dealers are said

to have split with the money. The sources said that Jay had

never dabbled in drug dealing before and that his inexperience

led to the two being scammed out of the drugs and the money.

According to Allhiphop.com, the men in the studio

knew Jay was about to be killed that evening and that the

lookout, a man named Tenard, alerted the shooter to Jay's

arrival. The men in the studio have refused to submit to

police questioning and will not reveal what information

they know, according to reports.
