DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince

DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince were an American hip hop duo from West Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, consisting of rapper Will Smith (the Fresh Prince) and disc jockey Jeff Townes (DJ Jazzy Jeff). Active full time from 1986 to 1994 and occasionally thereafter, the duo became just the third rap group in recorded history to receive platinum certification, after Run-DMC and the Beastie Boys. The group received the first Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance in 1989 for "Parents Just Don't Understand" (1988), though their most successful single was "Summertime" (1991), which earned the group their second Grammy and peaked at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100.

*chance to rock*
*Jeff waz on the beat box*

There was a party the other day
Around my way
They asked if me and Jeff would play
We said okay
We nipped out to get the hip hop apparatus
Came back with the posse in full effect status
While Jeff set up, I said "check one two y'all"
Everybody clap lets begin to ball
I was rapping a capella but I had to stop
Because chaos broke because Jeff waz on the beat box

Just cut it up Jeff
*hip-hop*
*chance to rock*
*Jeff waz on the beat box*

Did you know that parties were all the same when we came up
We had to rearrange and make a change
I remember how it was people standing still
The music was wack so they chose to get ill
People started breaking and fights would start to break out
This is the reason why some people make out
Hip-hop to be bad
Because of this behaviour
Then like a miracle two musical saviours
One with a microphone
The other with tables
Both up ready both willing and able
Burst on the scene like TNT
People said, "who can it be?"
Cant you see it's Jeff and me
We all blazed as musical scholars
Fast admiration ??? dollars
Couple of kids with a bright idea
Didn't want a 9 to 5 made rap careers
People tried to diss and make the egos shrink
But we believe in ourselves so to hell what they think
Moving like a freight train we can't be stopped
Especially when I'm on the microphone and Jeff is on the beat box

*hip-hop*
*chance to rock*
*Jeff waz on the beat box*

Yo cut it up Jeff
Scratched "hip-hop"

I know I talk about Jeff a whole hell of a lot
But straight up man you gotta give him his props
There's not many people who can do what he does
Marly Marl, Teddy Riley and herbie the luvebug
But other than that there's not many around
That can take that box and make it sound
Like anything that you could possibly want
Now heres a rhyme that sums it up
Jeff is diggy diggy d dope and
You DJ's out there keep hopin
His beat boxers will be broken
But you might as well just keep hopin
????
You think he can your mis-taken
Our records he is brizzeakin (breakin0
(Come on man you can mix)
Grammy winning musicians
His beat box is a kizz- kickin
And all my rhymes are hizz-hittin
The albums out so go get it
There ain't no way we st-stopping
We got the party rizzockin (rockin)
We got the crowd a hip hoppin
When Jeff is on the beat box

*chance to rock*
*Jeff waz on the beat box*

One more time scratch Jeff

*hip-hop*

Mmm lets see what's next on the agenda
That's right oh yeah I've got it I remember
I was discussin when Jeff's on stage
Yeah hands clap
Ya feet tap
Ya eardrums pulsate
Ya body will move
As ya flow with the groove
And you smile as he composes this new rap tune
When he's on the stage he can't be stopped
Specially when I'm on the microphone and Jeff is on the beat box
