Two men have been arrested for the murder of hip-hop icon Jam Master Jay.
The turntablist and producer was a founder member of Run-DMC, the group who arguably defined the sound of hip-hop's Golden Age.
A groundbreaking phenomenon, the project matched Jam Master Jay against MCs Joseph 'Rev Run' Simmons and Darryl 'D.M.C.' McDaniels.
Tragically, Jam Master Jay was shot to death at a recording studio in the New York area of Queens in October 2002.
More than 15 years have passed, but the New York Post now reports that two men have been arrested and charged with the producer's murder.
Ronald Washington and Karl Jordan, Jr. have also been indicted on charges of drug trafficking, alongside murder.
Joseph 'Rev Run' Simmons and Darryl 'D.M.C.' McDaniels have not commented on the reports.
