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 ‘90s. 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 ‘90s, 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 — for him and for anyone attending his shows.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Rating: 5 out of 5 Very Nice Show
by Rocky on 6/20/23Boardwalk Hall - Atlantic CityThe show was very nice, and it started on time and went smoothly no interruptions. The only issue people continue to come into the floor area where the better sights are. It’s very disruptive to the persons who do pay better money for their seats. People need to sit in the seat you paid for and stop coming into the area and then challenging the security officers.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Such an Honor
by Keerah on 6/20/23Boardwalk Hall - Atlantic CitySo much history and greatness on once stage in one night. I took my mother and step-father. We're die hard hip-hop lovers. Had a great time!
Rating: 5 out of 5 Perfect for an ol hip hop head
by B at 52 on 11/3/21Buckhead Theatre - AtlantaShow started on time with Jazzy Jeff doing as he does, gets busy!!! Start time 8 pm and he was on when we got in a little after 8, nice!! Rakim’s son performed and sounded like he has skills. Rakim hit the stage- went through his masterpieces and finished at around 10:30. For the price, I didn’t feel like I was cheated and the time show ended was great for a hip hop head who didn’t need to be out all night.

DJ Jazzy Jeff and Rakim are legends. They truly represented the culture and all of the Hip Hop fans in the building were rocking to classic songs. It was a night for the record books. Without a doubt!

Rating: 4 out of 5 Great music weak crowd response
by JD on 11/2/21Buckhead Theatre - AtlantaDJ Jazzy Jeff tried to teach the crowd about the history of hip hop with his beats but the crowd wasn't feeling him. The God Rakim was on point as usual,he called on the NYC fans as the ATL people were too laid back.
