Jam Master Jay’s turntablist son, TJ Mizell, has uploaded a tribute to Jay Z to YouTube.
Titled ‘J Train to Marcy’, the video revolves around a short DJ set by Mizell on the New York Subway, starting from Mizell and his team trying to get electricity from a car battery, and concluding with a routine of Jay Z remixes as the train pulls into Marcy Avenue. It’s really cool – especially the reaction from the bemused commuters – and can be watched above.
Last year, FACT’s Mr. Beatnick sat down with Run DMC’s DMC – you can watch that interview here.
