In recognition of todays anniversary of JMJ’s death, MTV News got an exclusive visit to his former studio (24/7 Studio in Queens, New York).
The Queens native William “The Mayor” Pittman bought the studio with his partners Erik Jewel and female rapper Vein in January this year.
Pittman told MTV News in what bad condition he found JMJ’s studio when he got the keys earlier this year.

was the beat off of rock box sampled? if so, from what?
Afaik, the beat is not sampled. It was programmed by Jay. Also the guitar is not sampled, but played live by Eddie Martinez.
