DJ Jazzy Jeff on Tour
A pioneer whose crate-digging and beat-making skills remain unparalleled, West Philadelphia's DJ Jazzy Jeff has been one of hip-hop's most celebrated DJs for more than three decades. When Jeffrey Allen Townes was only 10 years old, he embarked on his DJ career, spinning records in his family's basement. His appreciation of the job of a DJ ran so deep, he'd use his time at neighborhood block parties to study how others worked:
In 1985, Jeff paired up with fellow Philadelphian Will Smith to form DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, and together the two hit it big with crossover smashes in the 1980s and ā90s. Earlier singles like "Parents Just Don't Understand" and "Nightmare on My Street" cruised to the top with their combination of slapstick humor and boom-bap beats, with the former song winning the inaugural Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance in 1989. The duo's 1991 jam "Summertime" took a more chilled-out approach, and it became a cookout staple and earned the pair their second Grammy.
DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince split up in the early ā90s, although Townes has reunited with Smith for a handful of reunion shows and collaborations on record. He's also struck out on his own as an in-demand DJ and music mogul, helping nurture his hometown's fertile neo-soul scene and collaborating with fellow hip-hop titans like Big Daddy Kane and Method Man.
Jeff has also taken fans along with him on the road in the online video series Vinyl Destination, which follows him on his travels as he seeks out the best examples of culture around the world. His shrewd study of what makes an entertainer successful has paid off in a slew of ways ā for him and for anyone attending his shows.

From the music to the performers to the people, it all came together very nicely for an epic evening to celebrate 50 years of hip hop with some of its legendary pioneers.
It was an amazing show but many were left out and couldn't get in real hip hop royalty it was a shame but overall it was a great event and the after party was awesome a little crazy at the entrance but once you got in it was very nice. 4 party rooms with special side rooms and a water front balcony view it was so nice.
The energy was live šÆ, so glad I made this iconic event ā¦. Performanceās on all levels were incredibleā¦. No complaints ā¦. Absolutely great night for Hip Hop !!! šŖš¾
