Listening to the new Kanye West album, I caught a reference to OJ and Isotoners, and recalled that my favorite Jim White album also made such a reference.  Which got me curious to how widely this is being used as a musical theme.  Good thing I know a librarian:

Jim White - When Jesus Gets a Brand New Name
Kanye West - Stronger
Sonic Youth - O.J.'s Glove Or What?
Bruce Cockburn - When You Give It Away
La the Darkman - 4 Souls
The Boss Hog Barbarians - Bo$$ Hoggin'
DJ Envy - Grand Theft Auto
Dom Pachino - Da Score
Da Manchuz - Ain't No Woman Like the One I Got
Psychopathic Rydas - Ride Off
Brotha Lynch Hung - Mr. No Print
Hilltop Hoods - Monsters Ball
Beatnuts - I Love It
Rihanna - The One
Def Squad - The Game
Masta Ace - Something's Wrong
Jumpsteady - Ninjas In Action
 
Plus a parody variations:
Tainted Love - Ain't His Glove
Walk This Way - The OJ Simpson Trial
 
And a bunch of comedy things not even worth mentioning.

I wouldn't be surprised if there are more.  I only did a brief search.  But if I was a pop culture theorist, I would totally be writing a paper on this right now.
