Description: He’s the DJ, I’m the Rapper is the groundbreaking second studio album from hip-hop duo DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince, released originally in 1988 and reissued on vinyl in 2017. This album is a landmark in hip-hop history as one of the first double albums in the genre, combining clever storytelling, humorous lyricism, and smooth beats.
Known for its playful vibe and accessible rap style, the album features iconic tracks like “Parents Just Don’t Understand” and “A Nightmare on My Street,” which helped catapult Will Smith (The Fresh Prince) and Jeff Townes (DJ Jazzy Jeff) into mainstream success.
