This documentary is actually done and produced by one of jam jays family members Estavan which jay jam taught him how to mix his R&B with hip hop way back. What they dont tell you which is important besides all the rappers. Jam jays auntie and nieces are going to be in this documantary which is arden scotts mom and sister and they know exactly who did it and why noones talking about it.
