--------
Associates of the late hip-hop legend Jam Master Jay were recently found guilty of his 2002 murder, including one who was his godson. Tony Yayo, a Queens native and close friend of 50 Cent, who was originally signed by Jam Master Jay, knew the killers personally. The shocking crime was a result of the harsh reality of the streets and the desperation for money, said Tony Yayo, who highlighted the dangers of dealing drugs. The decline of Jam Master Jay's career meant he returned to selling drugs, which resulted in his murder. Yayo criticized the lack of support from industry figures, questioning where they were when Jay was struggling financially. He contrasted this to his relationship with 50 Cent, who would lend him money if needed, saving him from having to resort to crime. In a dark comment on the fickle nature of fame and the dangers of the street, Yayo warned aspiring artists and high-profile individuals about the risks they run in dealing drugs.
