    If anyone doesnt like Alladins cuts, then they dont understand how absolutely funky they were for the time, in DMC. he is a Compton boy doin Philly style cuts, and if you listen to it without watching him, and dont automatically bop your head, I dont think you understand what funky cuts really are. They were never done like this before Alladin, and never done after. Qbert or Dstyles dont even have this level of funk. Skill yes, funk no. Its a philly thing. I almost wish I was from there.

      I feel that. I tend to lose interest in what DJs are doing, when they aren't funky, regardless of how technically advanced they are. Not being funky, or at least musical, is a deal-breaker for me.

    His deadly transformer cuts alone immediately smoked anything cut mister swift did that night. Nobody was touching that in 89…maybe the Philly cats but if you peep his work on the low profile lp you can really clearly how next level his cutting/transforms were…on the line switch too. Even though they switch had that added click sound he makes it work with his flow. The art of repurposing the tools taken to a high place.

    @defcreator Cash had some super fast and swing groove transforms, his scratching to the funk was incredible for 1985, the two of them had a completely different style which was great just like the uk style including dj mink (uk). I just think in terms of tighness, accuracy, speed and ability to entertain, jeff is my fav. His transfom on Magnificent and union square is so refined for the time that it sounds funny like a cartoon character would do it. Everything he does has humour.

    Hey utahsaint365. That's only half right. The record that Aladdin is cutting there isn't the Grandmaster Flash record. He's cutting "Get Up And Dance" by Freedom which was released on TK Records in 1978. Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five took the music from that song and rapped over it for their hit "Freedom" two years later in 1980. The original cut by Freedom has been a B-boy anthem since the late 70's.
