- DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince Live Union Square 1986 (Hiphop / Hip Hop / Rap)
Live recordings taken from an old live tape showcasing the talents of DJ Jazzy Jeff on the wheels of steel and 17 year old emcee The Fresh Prince (Will Smith).
I remember when I first heard this “Live at Union Square “. Lost my mind!!!!!! The transformer scratch was SICK!!!!
I want to give everyone a history lesson there is a tape with dh cash mo ney in 85 doing that same transformer live remember him and Jeff were a dj group at the time called twins of spin and jeff copied his style from cash so dj cash money has always been overshadowed by jeff but jazzy learned his style from cash he even taught jeff the rock the bells breakdown on one turntable which jeff does at a lot of his shows but credit to jeff for introducing to the world what philly djs were doing
I bought this tape in 87 and been amazed by this track ever since!!! Dj Jazzy Jeff absolutely MURDERS this set!! He goes the hardest from 3:17-4:23 the transformer scratch he does @ 3:40 then again @ 4:04 was unheard of in 1986!!
It sounds like he is scratching both decks at same time from 4:45-4:54...Crazy!
All this with 2 turntables and a mixer NO technology 100% skills!
👍
Actual Facts
It was incredible
@@k.a.williams9290 They rocked it. I saw them perform live. Dope.
Facts! This set still holds its own in 2023.
Will sounded like he was really having fun!
He was masterful at MC’ing… Crowd control was on point!
See, THIS is why Jazzy Jeff is my favorite DJ/Turntablist.
DJ Jazzy Jeff was ahead of his time in his craft, 25 plus years later he still is the man at venues all over the world. and musicians and rappers come to him for beats.
The transformer scratch is a life changer!
3:40 and the world was never the same again.
What he does with 'Just Buggin" is UNBELIEVABLE. And to be doing this in 1986 when scratching had only been around for a few years makes it even more incredible! Jazzy and Cash Money - the greatest!
+khmer wolf Don't forget about dj Cheese, 1986 DMC World Dj Champ too...
word up!
Dj scratch
DJ Jazzy Jeff, the best to ever do it.
And DJ Lighting Rich! RIP Rich...
I can still remember hearing the transformer scratch. I must have rewinded that like 100 times!! One of the best creative and innovative djs ever.
I have this on vinyl and it sounds amazing. I can't help but feel like I'm apart of the crowd when I play this.
First heard this Track in 87 and the transformer scratch blew me away. Still sounds dope In 2020.
Then imagine having actually *been* there - that day in 1986 at the Union Square.
Holy mother of mackerels...!
@ 0:30 that Brooklyn crowd had NO IDEA what they were in for. Fresh Prince rocked that routine perfectly and Jazzy Jeff absolutely DeSTroYeD the wheels. This routine changed the DJ game forever.
+DJ GaFFLe I remember recording this on cassette tape while listening to it live on WBLS, it's still as mind blowing today for me at 42 as it was that night when I heard it as a kid...
This was actually at a club in Manhattan called “Union Square” , it’s just Brooklyn was deep that night. That night was amazing and unforgettable.
Talk that shit man!!!
This record gets me open, Jeff's skills are sick.
IMO this is one of the best hip hop albums ever
This is when the MC would big up his DJ. U had to rock the party. There was so much respect of the DJ element of the culture that you would give your DJ a segment to get busy during the concert or on your album.
Nothing gets more hiphop than this.
What?!?
🤣
@@Khultan NOTHING GETS MORE HIP HOP THAN THIS.
@@JeppeSeverin I can't take you seriously. DJAFP are mad dope but they're not the be all end all.
@@Khultani Just answered to your "what".
It's not my problem that you can't take me serious/don't agree.
@@JeppeSeverin I'm having no problems it's you and your idea.
This is by far!!!! the best scratching you will ever here, even nowadays! respect to The Scratch Pickelz and all of them DJ's and crews today but Jazzy is just one of those Dj's the put the needle in the right groove every single time :)
Everybody remembers this session who grew up with Hip Hop in the 80's. So like Princy said ''Be Quiet!''.
Jazzy Jeff was way ahead of the competition mixing and spinning. Here in 2020 he is still one of the best beat master rappers go to.
I love hearing the recorded radio versions of this with the static over it. Gives it that authentic dirty hip hop sound from that era. Salute.
The way he pays his respects to the people that inspired him.Jeff is second to none.
WOW!!! I NEVER heard this whole thing till just now! On the CD,tape & or LP it cuts off.
PDOG313 I just seen a 21 minute version posted... I'm 'bout to check it out in a bit.
same here
Lost my mind hearing Jeff kill it with the transform scratch
This was the first time Uncle Phil didn't throw Jeff out the house.
Jazzy Jeff is a damn good DJ,Fresh Prince best be glad he had him put out hits in their time
These kids today dont know what great music and talent is
In the film 'I am Legend' there's a quick flash of a derelict 'Union Square' street sign
MagicRising good eye
word?!
Pretty much all of side II of the "He's the Dj I'm the Rapper" tape Jeff goes HAMPTON!
this B side made me fall in love with Jazzy Jeff, been searching for it for ages.... cheers dude. reminds me of KRS1, mantronix, goldtop, stetsasonic, red alert, eric b and rakim. pure old school class
Never heard this long version.....classic upload!!
This is when DJ Jazzy Jeff the first DJ to introduced to Transformer stratch to the world, I forgot which DJ Jazzy Jeff battled but he won that DJ Contest I remember it like it was yesterday he had everybody hyped everybody was feeling DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince from Philly to New York to Washington DC, Boston, to LA
New Music Seminar battle in ‘86. He beat Barry B. (Doug Fresh’s DJ).
False... DJ Spinbad DID IT FIRST. Him & DJ Cash Money "unveiled it" to the public Feb. 14th 1986 @ Central High #IWasThere ✊🏾💯
breaks and the transformer scratch .. hell dope ... i was starting on the tables this was a real lesson . 54 now and still doing .... cheryll lynne to be real rocks it and apache etc
man theres so many legendary ppl at this show just from listening to this bit. I was born in 1987 and wow. 2 young cats from Philly performing in NYC w/ some of the originators!
#classic i was there
Really?? Tell me about it.
Hey that’s dope. Do you remember their outfits that night?
I had this on a casette tape. Damn, I miss those things. Bigass walkman hanging on your belt with your grafitti name buckle. Spraycan art on your pants, rinding your no-nose Powell Peralta deck, hanging out in the park smoking weed while we listened to this album on a boombox.
17歳のウイルスミス。
このMCがフレッシュプリンスかどうかはわからないんですが、やはりすごいエンターテイナー。
それにも勝るジャジージェフのテクニック！このアルバム何回聴いたか分からないくらい聴きましたよ。
Now you know, this is Will "The fresh Prince" Smith rockin the house back in "86"
This was a double vinyl album and I bought it when it cam out. Jeff and the Prince in their prime. I was a huge fan of the first and 2nd albums. Shout out Ready Rock C
Damn i aint never heard this versiob either HOT LIKE FIRE!!!!!!!!!!
i was 12 listening to this on the radio when he did that transformer i thought a spaceship landed. i ran in the basement with a flashlight terrorized, the shit was from the future for real
this is the proper fresh prince and jazzy jeff,
え！長いのってあったのか！
(what? Didn’t know the long version existed!)
昔のDJとラッパーの関係っていいよね！こうあるべき。
(I really like the way they respect each other, Most of the Rap group MC&DJ were like this back then.)
Thaks for uploading✊from Japan.
Was really incredible,with the mixers they had then,these new mixers make all the scratches easier.
I remember that, DJs of today is good, Old Sckool DJs like DJ Jazzy Jeff ,DJ Steve Dee,DJ Cash Money,DJ Aladin, DJ Scratch, DJ Cheese, Grandmaster Flash,Grandwizard Theodore, DXT, Kool DJ Red Alert,Chuck Chill out, Marly Marl, Mr Magic (R.I.P), Cut Master Swift, DJ Diamond J
Robert Chapman Kool Herc, the Grand Daddy of them all? Jam Master Jay one of the best that ever did it? I'll also add Cutmaster DC, DJ AJ Scratch(Kurtis Blow), Mixmaster Ice and my personal fav DJ Code Money (Schoolly D).
+Fantasy Guru I never knew the name of Schoolly D's dj until now after all these years...weird.
+mysterymediacorp
Me neither!
also: dj easy lee from the treacherous three, dj charlie chase from the cold crush brothers, dj kid capri from grandmaster melle mel and the furious five, king shameek from twin hype, the butcher from the kmc kru, dj miz(ery) from freshko & miz, etc.
This is pretty awesome. The cleaned up version on He's the DJ ends in what is the 4:30 mark here, this gives you a lot more.
One of my homeboys was at this show and recorded this on his boombox. I had this playing in Portland,Ore in 86-87. Nice to see it here.
Hey fresh Prince and DJ you guys are awesome DJ jazzy Jeff is so awesome on the transformer scratch I like him to post a new one where he does it entirely backwards and then forwards and then backwards again then do some Christmas scratching and the New Year scratch as bring in the new year with the awesome scratch
This one and Rock the house are my favourit JJ &FP tracks.
I was 14 when this came out
To end the controversy in the comments once and for all, both DJ Jazzy Jeff and DJ Cash Money confirmed that DJ Spinbad invented the transformer scratch. Jazzy Jeff introduced it to the world. End of story.
Legendary piece of Hip Hop history.

60th St. West Philly Sound was the best in the 80's
Go jazz!!!
RIP Mr. Magic this sure in hell was and still is a rap attack exclusive.
All the normal ppl be quite 2023. Still one of the best scratches from the 80s.
the worlds first ever chirp scratch at 7:08
Philly always had the coldest deejays.
Ow damn, best set ever man. Word.
Ty for the upload!!!
Paul RandallThe transforming was wicked and all this back in 86 .. I have this double pack lp on Jive label
BACK IN THE DAY THIS WAS THE SHIT.
People with aids be quiet????????????
Yeah, I just had the same question pop up in my mind.
theneedledrop at the time aids was a big thing and people shunned or made fun of it. but i hear you lol
he hyping the crowd up so if you dont have aids you supposed to shout!! its 86 so ppl weren't all butt hurt over stuff like that then.
*"butt hurt"*
Unfortunate choice of words given the context :-D
repo136 lmao you stupid for that one 😂😂😂😂
4:53
I got the opportunity to see him do this live in concert. He murdered it.
Guess who had to follow him on stage.
Yep, Whistle.
😂😂😂😂
Yeah… that’s not good DJ etiquette though. What such a dope routine though, I would have had to do it too!
Where/when did you see him perform this?
@@RomSpaceKnight
Why?
@@bakhembrutalknowledge I was wondering where else he performed it unless you meant you were there that night
@@RomSpaceKnight
I seen them on tour back in '86 with Whistle and Whoudini.
It wasn't at Union Square in NY.
Everyone knows that part at the start from the album.. It's nice to hear it in full :)
Respect!
im in love
Hip Hop at it's finest!! No Doubt!!
I'm still trippen when I hear the transformer scratch in 2022.
all hail jazzy jeff!!!!
chills..
中学生の時に初めて聴いて鳥肌が出たトランスフォーマースクラッチ‼️当時はレコードレンタルがあったなー
Jazzy Jeff!
The man is a legend, crazy, crazy skills on the decks.
And to think...1986? ... and he was using 3 turntables aswell.
RIP Mr. Magic
I think me and mates spent 2 years trying to be jazzy jeff on the decks. Perhaps some of the best DJ'ing on the planet, Perhaps not the most popular. lol
I first heard this on the pirate radio here in the U.K 87/88. Have it recorded on tape somewhere. I was 15 and this is just pure Hip hop gold!!!
G O L D
🔥🔥🔥
ahead of there time
Not to mention Jeff was 21-22
Thank you for the clarification.
Legendary
Jeff destroyed them turntables that night !
Best!
classic shit right here!
Will Kilt it!! Jeff Went CRAZY!!!! 6.21.19 #MyEra
sounds crazy
“All the homeboys who got AIDS be quiet”
😂
I feel like he wouldn’t say that today.
It’s funny you commented this a month ago before the Da baby situation 😂
@@johnwayne3566 HILARIOUS!! Lmao
2:24 “All the homeboys that got aids be quiet!” And now he’s America’s sweetheart. Maybe there’s still hope for Da Baby.
Philly showed New York the style of Djing with Jeff and Cash Money'.but shout out to the birthplace of Hip Hop
My top 5 DJ ..
D.O.A
remember his mixer.. more good of 2020
Had this album loooooonnnggg time ago, and it was clear even then where the REAL talent was. And I dont mean 'The Rapper'...
Respect to all Burroughs
@ Schweddski - Cash Money gets credit for inventing the transformer scratch..Jazzy Jeff PERFECTED IT!
#Classic
we had to the best dj in philly but ny had the best rappers
eugene miller ... Philly got spitters now too don't get it twisted lol
Correction philly had good rappers but was overshadowed by the djs because the dj culture was real strong in philly back then
Imagine if it was Dj Jazzy Jeff and Rakim that were the duo..Paid In Full would've been even more insane. The best DJ and best rapper at the time..would've been dope.
yo that One Love is such a jump off omg
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👊🏾👊🏾
@Thetan1974 thanks bro ive been telling these dudes that for the pass few years thanks again!!!!!
There is truth on every side
