What’s old to you may be NEW to me. What’s new to me may be old to you. But it’s all good! As I was doing my Sunday apartment cleaning I stopped to look at my iTunes music collection and discovered Dj Jazzy Jeff had come out with a new album. And YES if you’re thinking is she talking about about DJ Jazzy Jeff of the fresh prince. Yup you right! Wills best friend Jeff He was always thrown out of Uncle Phil’s house.
Here’s his mini bio….
Jeffrey Allen Townes was born on January 22, 1965 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.[3] Early on, he developed a reputation and a following as a school and Block party DJ.
He was ten years old when he first became interested in being a DJ. He told author Paul Stenning, “At summer time block parties I wouldn’t be the one dancing, I was sat where the DJ was set up, watching him. Even when I would go to other block parties in other neighborhoods I was still infatuated with the DJ. He was the guy that played music that everyone in the neighborhood loved. You might not have known his face, you might not have known his name but he was the guy that made everyone move.”
He took the stage name DJ Jazzy Jeff and was one half of the duo DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince along with Will Smith. The group received the first Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance in 1989 for “Parents Just Don’t Understand”, though their most successful single was “Summertime” which earned the group their second Grammy and peaked at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100.
When Smith branched out into television with the sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Jazzy Jeff played a recurring character named Jazz, Smith’s best friend on the show. In the early seasons, the two characters always greeted each other with their signature handshake (swinging mid-five, point-back, snap with both characters saying “Pssh!”). A recurring joke throughout the show’s run involved the character being physically ejected from the house by Uncle Phil (James Avery), using the same footage for comedic effect.

Elfen’s TBT TOP 40 R&B of 1985 Loose Ends Hangin’ On A String
The year was 1985. This is pre internet, smartphones, Twitter, Black Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. Black folks of 1985 was listening to the radio or on the move with their Walkman. The R&B radio station I was bumpin’ to in my home city and state of Tacoma WA was 1250 Kfox am and one of the songs topping the 1# spot in the U.S R&B top 40 for 1 week was Hangin’ On A String by a British R&B Band called Loose Ends. Notice you can understand EVERY word. And the lead singers aren’t cussing and no one is saying nigga every few verses. The message is simple and to the point. Back in 1985 the radio personalities choose the song being played. They got to play what they liked and thought their listening audience might like it too. This song was on the niddle every time this song was requested. I even remember calling in to request this jam!

According to the Associated Press, T.I. (born Clifford Harris) was hit with disorderly conduct, public drunkenness and simple assault charges. Before his arrest, T.I. attempted to contact a friend, who came out to assist, who also ended up being arrested because of an outstanding warrant.

Jada Pinkett-Smith Opens Up About Her Friendship With Tupac, Says She’s Angry Because She Thought He’d Still Be Here
“I’ve had a lot of loss. So many of my close friends gone. They didn’t make it to 30. They didn’t make it past 25. A lot of people talk about my relationship with Pac and figure that out. That was a huge loss in my life,” Pinkett-Smith said.
She continued, “Because he was one of those people I expected to be here. My upset is more anger because I feel like he left me. And I know that’s not true and it’s a very selfish way to think about it… I really did believe he’d be here for the long run. And when I think about it I still get really mad.”

Spike Lee’s BlacKkKansman gets standing Ovation at Cannes
Filmmaker Spike Lee’s latest offering, BlacKkKlansman, is set to be released on Aug. 10, the one-year anniversary of the deadly Charlottesville, Va., white nationalist rally. At its world premiere in Cannes, the film received 10 minutes of applause and standing ovation.
As the Hollywood Reporter notes, Lee was previously overlooked for the Palme d’Or in 1989 for Do the Right Thing. During the Cannes screening of BlacKkKlansman, the audience broke into applause a half-dozen times. At the end of the film, they clapped for four minutes during the credits and gave the film a six-minute standing ovation.
John David Washington (yes, son of Denzel and Pauletta) stars in the film as a black police officer who infiltrated the Ku Klux Klan in the 1970s. Adam Driver, Topher Grace and Laura Harrier also star in it.
The film’s trailer was released Monday
