Today marks the 22nd anniversary of O.J. Simpson's white Bronco police chase. O.J. is locked up now at Lovelock Correctional Center in Nevada for committing armed robbery. Even from behind bars, O.J. is still able to capture America's imagination's like few else. He was recently the subject of the FX show, "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story"; he is currently the subject of ESPN's stunning 5-part documentary "O.J. Simpson: Made in America."
Rappers frequently mention O.J.'s murder trial in their lyrics. O.J. himself couldn't resist hopping in the booth in in 2008 to rap about himself in a song called "Get Juiced" for MTV's "Punk'd":
"Don't you know there's no stopping the Juice
When I'm on the floor I'm like a lion on the loose
Better shoot me with a tranquilizer dart
Don't be stupid, I'm not a Simpson named Bart"
