  2. Spin Doctor Q & A

    Nicole that is a hilarious story! I still get star-struck too like I just want to ait and talk about so many things with him but only have a quick minute or two at a show so I'm speechless or its a few rapid-fire questions hahah.

    He definitely has the perfect level of fame. 2-time Grammy award winner, millions of albums/records sold worldwide, on the TV show and yet he can still go shop at the mall and be left alone...lol. On top of all the fame, he is genuinely one of the nicest people I ever met.

  7. JJFP.COM INTERVIEW WITH DJ JAZZY JEFF

    :clap::clap:

    Great stuff guys! Love this interview. He talks about a lot of stuff that I hadn't heard before. To think that he didn't like "Parents Just Don't Understand" and " A Touch Of Jazz". Crazy!

    The way he talks about working with Will gives me hope that we will hear a new song/album in the future.

    This is dope stuff! Great work Kev!

    Crazy he didn't like those records right?! I was stunned by that too. I'm not sure if anyone remembers but Will did an interview with Big Boy in LA back in 2001/2002-ish and he was asked what was the worst song he ever did. He said "Boom! Shake the Room" was really wack. That's also a surprise too.

    All I can say is.....wow! :clap:

    I've been nagging Kev on facebook and twitter the last few days because I was so excited for this and couldn't wait to hear it. Kev - you uploaded it at the perfect time. You last tweeted me at 4:45pm my time and as soon as 5 o'clock came, I sprinted out of work and quickly hooked this up to my car so I could listen to it/watch it (eyes on the road, of course lol) on my commute home. This was very enjoyable.

    I love how Jeff knows exactly how we feel from a fan's perspective. He was talking about the 1-on-1 relationship and interaction with the fans and its still surreal that he knows some of us here on a first name basis and goes out of his way to do these things for us (hookups at shows, facebook comments, music...etc). I'm so appreciative of it..

    Thanks for asking about Code Red. That was probably the one question I asked that I hoped would make it on the interview. I'm with Tim on this one, I love Code Red. I love all the albums but Code Red is really a masterpiece. It's so fascinating to hear that they thought they were losing Jive's support. I'm almost baffled by it because at the time, it was only a few months after Homebase hit with Summertime and the duo was on TV every Monday night. Also, no one on hip-hop blogs/media/reviews ever mention Code Red. Jeff mentioned the clashes they had between the artistry and commercial music and it kinda makes me wonder at the end of Scream, how Will is sort of rapping like Dr. Dre/Snoop Dogg. It's pretty funny if he's subliminally mocking Jive and the commercial sound at the time.

    AJ - hell of a question man. That was really thought-provoking.

    Also, big thanks to everyone involved in orchestrating this. I lived vicariously through you guys and I hope there's more fan Q&A's to come. Literally - the best JJ interview ever. :clap:

  13. JJFP.com Questions for Jeff

    in Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince

    Posted

    Nicole - I'm so glad you and Jeff are on board for this. For years, we've always had these questions but never the opportunity to ask them., I know personally, whenever I see Jeff, I just want to talk about so much with him but never really the chance since the clubs do get hectic with everything going on.

    I'm so excited for this - I can't wait!!

    A couple other questions..

    1. How many songs would Jeff and Will do on average for an album?

    2. Did JJFP get to choose what songs would be singles or was that Jive?

    3. Aside from When to Stand Up, are there other songs Jeff did with Eminem or if both JJFP recorded a track with Eminem?

    4. Why is Will often reluctant to talk about rapping nowadays? He seems to be very tight-lipped about making music whenever it's mentioned in interviews. Any reason behind it?

    This is gonna be EXCELLENT!

    Ahh Kev - this is something I've always wanted to do! You're so lucky...I'm glad you're doing this!

    Ok here's my questions..tell him Jim from New Jersey asks lol so he knows hah

    1.) Jeff recently tweeted that he's going to be posting an unreleased track every week. What's the possibility of some JJ+FP unreleased tracks? Is there a lot of unreleased tracks?

    2.) It's the 20th Anniversary of the Code Red album - in my opinion, the greatest JJFP album. What does Jeff remember most about making that classic album?

    3.) Speaking of JJFP albums, is there any chance they could be remastered?
