the entire video is fire, but from 1:28 to 1:58 might've been the greatest 30 seconds of DJing history, The level of difficulty is SO next level, AND to basically be in perfect timing for that entire sequence is nothing short of astonishing. And then 2:40 and beyond, Jazzy just showing off. true mastery
I'mma old school hip hop head and I've been behind DJ Jazzy Jeff from the beginning and will always continue to be a supporter. This is why I fell in love with hip hop!
A Clip of 2 bad ass DJ's....Jazzy Jeff will always be my favorite DJ....His sets are legendary and DJ A.M. was a beast (R.I.P.). Wish I was in the crowd when they was playing
His name is Jazzy Jeff aka Jeff Townes. Commanding the cut he;s always on track. The Magnificent Jazzy Jeff. Even D.J. Am knew he was on stage with a legend and icon. R.I.P. D.J. AM
DJ Jazzy Jeff is the reason I'm still into turntablism and percussive electronic music 20 years after his first albums with Fresh Prince. He's an incredibly dextrous and talented.
NO one ..i mean no one is as clean and innovative with their cuts than Jazzy Jeff....his credibility in this industry is undeniable and that's why he travels the world and others don't. He's technically superior, has brand recognition, and credibility to make him one of the most profitable DJ's on this planet!
Look at DJ AM from 1:50 to 1:54 mark. That's the body language of someone that just witnessed one of his idols do something extraordinary. My man was excited! Mad props to Jazzy Jeff, and rest in peace DJ AM....2 dope DJs.
DJ Jazzy Jeff the dopest DJ of all time!!!! Philly's finest. He truly is the magnificent and the best to have ever done it!! Many a DJ have followed him but none have been able to duplicate it.
This is my all time favorite DJ video, I miss Dj AM because he was way ahead of his time, but to see him watch you always gives me chills because he was also a Fan. This when Serato just came out to.
His juggles are so perfectly timed. I remember watching this 13yrs ago. After that, all other beat juggles i watched from other djs doesnt come close. Its like jazzy jeff trains with a metronome like a musician.
jazz and prince make an excellent duo, but i believe jeff wouldve been more respected as a dj, if he would have did his own thing more..ive seen Jeff battle, but most think of him as will's funny friend from phily, going to bel-air.. the show didnt showcase jeff often, and the albums did, but wild wild west,amd men in black, type songs didnt make the dj culture check for jeff's work..i bought those albums to hear jeff scratch, not will rap
+C28817 i watched $hit, with qbert , and aladdin, and xmen, and skratch piklz, when dj's were original, and J.J. was always known and his biggest accomplishment will always be the sidekick of fresh prince., ..although i dont remember him winning any DMC's , he always was in my top 10, maybe top 5 turntablists ever, so i dont need to check his resume, i was around to watch him making it.. peace
Wow.. you said Qbert, Aladdin, & Xmen and Skratch pilklz... DJ's that were inspired by Jazzy and came into the game more than a decade after Jazzy showed the world how to Transform cleanly with the fader not the switch.. Jazzy was always... always known and respected as a DJ!! - Not a side kick. Only the sheep saw him as a side kick.= - most of which don't even know Will was called "Fresh Prince".
glad to see jeff still has fans watching almost 8 years later, but skills are always respected.. i put jeff up there with the greatest..but i also remember him being the dj in the 80's for JJ and the fresh p..so dont act like he made his name before will, cuz i got, hes the dj..im the rapper, and i got it for the dj, i heard on the radio.. i also remember eric b trying to transform his own way in the 80's with rakim... eric b for president, i was done with the philly cats.. ...and marley marl, with juice crew..i was playing new york, and LA dj's that were winning battles..at shows..not 2 philly cats, with one being a corny rapper... oh, i forgot dj CRAZE..he's cool... peace
Wooord THATS THE DEAL ONE OF THE HOTTEST perfomences on you tube!!! As said before vinyl or die! All them digital djs might release some real nice mixes but THIS is what its all about! this is old school state of the art turntablelism ;-) !!! Loving it bad we wont see more of A.M. RIP Man
Do you see smoke coming off those needles, too? DJ Jazzy Jeff just killed it, for real! Rest easy, DJ AM. Ok, back to the lab. I gotta do some more practice. Peace!
I showed my 15yo son this video, he knows I am a big fan of Jeff and he asked me: "Dad, why didn't Jazzy Jeff ever compete in a DMC contest?" I told him (besides telling him Jeff must have been too busy since he exploded as a DJ together with Will): "Son, these regular freestyles are basically complete DMC sets and probably even winning sets... Jazzy Jeff just gives these performances all the time on a regular basis, unprepared... He doesn't need no contest environment... He proves himself as the master during every show. Even while he's 50 years old..."
I never get tired of watching this RIP DJ AM Dj Jazzy Jeff's selection at the end is priceless ! Timing is everything like Prof said thats how he made such a great HighSchool band !!!
Who all came back in 2019 almost 2020 to see this fresh cut again ! I know i did !!!
2020
2021 and and I’m back. Seen it 20 times. Classic
2021 this is still a banger! Getting pumped to clean the house haha! Rest easy DJ AM
I’m here and it’s 2022!!

Rip Dj AM...
Dirty Randy really?
@@ch-ih3ws yeah he passed of an apparent overdose...
Hollis Queens Thank you for telling me.
be very sad
watching dj am sit there in awe like a regular fan was cool to see. two legends. rest in peace, dj am
In all my years I've never seen someone break a groove down that hard. This is fucking ridiculous. All respect due!
in my opinion Jeff is the dopest dj alive
+GAMMA RAY I stand corrected
Agrred
Oops. Agreed. Lol
Illest of all time
Dead or alive imo
I watch this whenever I’m in a bad mood and need inspiration 🙌🏾 Give Thanks 🙏🏾

Dj am was lyfe, how humble how he just sat and learned from his legend 🙌 miss dj am so much imagine the mixes we'd have today if he didn't OD
check out A-trak
I'm speechless. All I could do was give a thumbs up and favorite it.
Two Legends, one gone, one still here, we appreciate!
I've listen to about 10 different DJ's this morning who are labeled "the best" and NO ONE made me feel it like "The Magnificent Jazzy Jeff"!!
Nov. 22nd 2018. Still brings a tear to my eye to see DJ AM and Jazzy Jeff together on this video clip. ❤❤❤❤
DJ AUDIO1 crazy how I always reference this video every so often wishing I could have been there. Philly legends
@@TheMuveTube Yeah man. 🙏🙏🙏
2023 check in.
@@jayhernandez9395 yessir
I'mma old school hip hop head and I've been behind DJ Jazzy Jeff from the beginning and will always continue to be a supporter. This is why I fell in love with hip hop!
Two amazing talents, such a shame to lose a special talent, imagine the videos that could have been 😔
A Clip of 2 bad ass DJ's....Jazzy Jeff will always be my favorite DJ....His sets are legendary and DJ A.M. was a beast (R.I.P.). Wish I was in the crowd when they was playing
y'all better know..lol THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME! PHILLY IN DA HOUSE!!!!!
I love the fact that jazzy jeff drops summer madness to finish, what a legend
jeff is the sickest ever , THATS MY WORD!!! IM FROM NYC , AND I CAN HONESTLY GIVE IT UP TO ALL THE PHILLIE DJ'S!!!!! ALL OF THEM !!!!
Jazzy Jeff is fraggin' phenomenal & has been forever...
Mannnnnnn! Don't even speak to me if he isn't your #1 DJ of all time. Seriously..lol
a set cant get much more perfect than that...absolutely flawless
notice his cuts are quick and really clean, he dont mess up at all, I think he's better than any hip hop dj out there
He is good, but he ain't no kid Capri or the one and only dj premier. Jazz is good don't get me wrong. He is a crowd mover.
@@user-js6ch1mf8g Please explain..
Never get tired of this. I've listened to this dozens of times. Some people play instruments. This dude plays records.
His name is Jazzy Jeff aka Jeff Townes. Commanding the cut he;s always on track.
The Magnificent Jazzy Jeff. Even D.J. Am knew he was on stage with a legend and icon. R.I.P. D.J. AM
DJ Jazzy Jeff is the reason I'm still into turntablism and percussive electronic music 20 years after his first albums with Fresh Prince. He's an incredibly dextrous and talented.

Jeff, you have always been my #1 DJ. Your music with Will is something that will live on 4 eva in my house. To the man, I, and my ears, thank you.
How the fuck did ANYONE give this A THUMBS DOWN!?!
In-N-Out your lying right?? you've NEVER heard of Beat Juggling? The dj getting off is whats happening!! lol
In some fuckers minds they can do it better , nobody can do that better ffs
Oh shit, love how Jeff dropped Summertime! That's such a fucking sick song!
That is SICK!!!! If you think that there has been a better DJ then you're CRAZY!!!!
he cant mess with jeff
A true legend showing what being a DJ is really all about.
Look at DJ AM from 1:50 to 1:54 mark. That's the body language of someone that just witnessed one of his idols do something extraordinary. My man was excited! Mad props to Jazzy Jeff, and rest in peace DJ AM....2 dope DJs.
man Dj jazzy jeff is a genius...I saw him once at ministry of sound with mark ronson and Dj Premier --- UNBELIEVEABLE
Jeff is my alltime favorite, since he did the transformer in the early 80's
I watch this video like 5 times a year lol never gets old. RIP
AM was like like fuck it, let me let him do is thing. lol
This man is one of the pioneering DJs from the golden age of hip-hop. He's already a master.
Song that Jazzy is cutting is Peter Piper by Run-DMC, song at the end is Summer Madness by Kool & The Gang...
C'mon folks this ain't rocket science
DJ Jazzy Jeff the dopest DJ of all time!!!! Philly's finest. He truly is the magnificent and the best to have ever done it!! Many a DJ have followed him but none have been able to duplicate it.
The "hip hop dancer's theme" is my favorite scratch record from jazzy jeff.
DJ Jezzy Jeff, one of my favorites in end of the 80's, the 90's and today. I love her scratch technics!°
This is my all time favorite DJ video, I miss Dj AM because he was way ahead of his time, but to see him watch you always gives me chills because he was also a Fan. This when Serato just came out to.
jazzy jeff THE KING.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i will never get tired of watching this video
Check out DJ Jazzy Jeff on Rhythm Trax. Think about when that was. Jeff can do that in his sleep all day.
The best DJ on this planet, hands down. I remember the house parties Jeff did...flawless and a lot of fun. Keeep spinnin' strong Jazzy!
1:28 and on...pure gold
His juggles are so perfectly timed. I remember watching this 13yrs ago. After that, all other beat juggles i watched from other djs doesnt come close. Its like jazzy jeff trains with a metronome like a musician.
The fact that this was caught on video
best video in the world and two of the best DJ's to ever touch a pair of turntables
salute and R.I.P DJ AM.
RIP DJ AM We miss you brother!
He fucking cuts peter piper so fucking nice !
The Greatest of all time. Period.WEST PHILLY STAND UP! R.I.P. DJ AM....
Jeff doing tha "Damn Thang on AM!!! wow and he knows it!!!😥
ive been Djing 20 years and this is the best at its bestiss..
Philly Dj's !! POW!!!!
DJ AM will forever be the sickest dj to ever live...... RIP
Now Peter piper picked peppers and run rocked rhymes, the best line ever, also love ya Jeff!!👍
Well put. Jazzy Jeff & J Rocc are the best alive!
I think Jeff switched to white wax after AM's passing as tribute to his younger protege... just an assumption. but cool if so... RIP
Poppinparties I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO NOTICED THAT LOL
Seen Jazzy Jeff twice in London and would see him again...this man is too good, loving it.
He fired up the wheels of steel...then cooled us off to Kool and The Gang...man that was masterful...
It's sad how you can't find Dj's like this anymore.
The real deejaying, even Am had to cool himself off hahaha. RIP Am
Jeff is the greatest, most articulate, melodic, percussive DJ of all time IMO.
dope !!!
he is so precise and can groove. pure funk groove at 2:23. classic jeff. nobody else is that funky on the turntables.
Kickin it
I saw this years ago. Still come back to it
off the scale
Wow!!!! I wish I coulda seen that! 1988, my sophomore year in HS.......what a GREAT time for HIP HOP back then!!!!
Time to practice!
Love this! Old School is always the best!!
jazz and prince make an excellent duo, but i believe jeff wouldve been more respected as a dj, if he would have did his own thing more..ive seen Jeff battle, but most think of him as will's funny friend from phily, going to bel-air.. the show didnt showcase jeff often, and the albums did, but wild wild west,amd men in black, type songs didnt make the dj culture check for jeff's work..i bought those albums to hear jeff scratch, not will rap
yep
+joe long
LMFAO...you said more respected as a DJ...lol..you must be 15...Check his Resume First before you speak on such things.
+C28817 i watched $hit, with qbert , and aladdin, and xmen, and skratch piklz, when dj's were original, and J.J. was always known and his biggest accomplishment will always be the sidekick of fresh prince., ..although i dont remember him winning any DMC's , he always was in my top 10, maybe top 5 turntablists ever,
so i dont need to check his resume, i was around to watch him making it..
peace
Wow.. you said Qbert, Aladdin, & Xmen and Skratch pilklz... DJ's that were inspired by Jazzy and came into the game more than a decade after Jazzy showed the world how to Transform cleanly with the fader not the switch..

i put jeff up there with the greatest..but i also remember him being the dj in the 80's for JJ and the fresh p..so dont act like he made his name before will, cuz i got, hes the dj..im the rapper, and i got it for the dj, i heard on the radio..
i also remember eric b trying to transform his own way in the 80's with rakim... eric b for president, i was done with the philly cats.. ...and marley marl, with juice crew..i was playing new york, and LA dj's that were winning battles..at shows..not 2 philly cats, with one being a corny rapper...
oh, i forgot dj CRAZE..he's cool...
peace
wonderful. Jazzy is THE man. R.I.P. DJ AM & R.I.P. Roc Raida. I miss you both so much.
1:30 - fucking crazy
2:38
I thought I knew how to turntable, Jazzy Jeff is a monster! That's what years of DJ'ing will do for someone.
can somebody explains to me what the heck of the 79 dislikes for?
Claire Etienne Oh those 79 dislikes of from the people who hates hip hop and in contrast is jealous.
this literally made me cry tears of joy
Jeff Killed him...
Jazz got soul, he got funk, he got flavor.. thats genetic, but talent, that's a god given gift...
Jazzy & AM.. its a historical event..
Actually, DJ AM died in this video.
Wooord THATS THE DEAL ONE OF THE HOTTEST perfomences on you tube!!!
As said before vinyl or die! All them digital djs might release some real nice mixes but THIS is what its all about! this is old school state of the art turntablelism ;-) !!!
Loving it bad we wont see more of A.M. RIP Man
JAZZY JEFF IS CRAZY, HE'S ONE OF THE BEST DJ'S IN THE WORLD.
dj jazzyjeff is my most favorite old-school dj
I remember july 22 2009 i was one of the view to watch this video.... weeks later Am Passed away i then downloaded this video and studied it....
HOW HAS THIS NOT HIT 1,000,000 hits yet!?!?!?!
Do you see smoke coming off those needles, too? DJ Jazzy Jeff just killed it, for real! Rest easy, DJ AM. Ok, back to the lab. I gotta do some more practice. Peace!
The grind never ends, Jeff STILL practicing every weekend on RUclips, and more I'm sure.
How can people dislike this? Two of the best together, tearing it up. Haters...
I've watched this video a dozen time and it still gives me chills...
Jazzy jeff is a MASTER ! all day all night skills.Untouchable.
I showed my 15yo son this video, he knows I am a big fan of Jeff and he asked me: "Dad, why didn't Jazzy Jeff ever compete in a DMC contest?" I told him (besides telling him Jeff must have been too busy since he exploded as a DJ together with Will): "Son, these regular freestyles are basically complete DMC sets and probably even winning sets...

two legends. 1 life cut short. RIP dj AM
God dam that dj made my day!!!
Dj Jezzy Jeff und Dj AM einfach nur GEIL !! unübertroffen, habe selten sone gute arbeit gesehen !!! :D
Needed to start 2021 with some good vibes and came straight to this video!
Before there were producers, you had DJs. They were the real heros behind every MC.
jazzy jeff one of the greatest of all time
I never get tired of watching this RIP DJ AM Dj Jazzy Jeff's selection at the end is priceless ! Timing is everything like Prof said thats how he made such a great HighSchool band !!!
Jazzy Jeff got me hooked to the vinyls thanks Jeff, I hope for one day to be mixing along side Mr. Jazz
