DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince - Live At Union Square (November 1986) Lyrics






(Put your hands together, welcome Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff)

Mic check, yall ready to have a party out there?
I can't hear you, is Brooklyn ready to have a party out there?
Before we get started here
I'd like to pay a couple respects to the people
That made me what I am today
All the people I used to listen to while I was growing up
Put your hands together for Grand Master Caz and Mellie Mel
Let me hear it back there, for Grand Master Caz and Mellie Mel
I'd like to pay my repsects to Mr. Magic, DJ Red Alert
You know I'm a young boy, I'm just coming up, you know, starting to do this
I'm 17 years old and gonna do what I wanna do up here, right?
But before I do what I wanna do I wanna know is Brooklyn in the place?
Brooklyn's out there, Bedsty? Where's Bedsty at?
Ready, yeah? we gonna get started like this
And you know it, you know it
Everybdoy put your hands in the air
Let me see you put your hands in the air
If you came to have a party right now
Everybody let me hear you say hooooo
Say ho ho
Now all the ladies
All the ladies in the house say owwww
Say owwww
Ya don't stop
Homeboys make some noise
Let me hear you say yeaaa
Say hell ya
Say Brooklyn rocks the spot
Let me hear it
Louder, say Brooklyn rocks the spot
Let me hear it
And you know it, you know it
Are yall down with the beats
My DJ Jazzy Jeff is throwing on all the def beats
I wanna let yall know this is my DJ
That's going by the code of Jazzy Jeff
In a little while, yall gonna check out the human lyndrum
Ready Rock C, but right now, everybody out there
I want everybody out there that's ugly
All the ugly people be quiet
All the filthy, stinky, nasty people be quiet
All the homeboys that got aids be quiet
All the girls out there that don't like guys, be quiet
Hold on, wait a minute
All the girls that don't like guys be quiet
You know it
Cause see, what we like to do is we perform, right?
We like to see how much noise the people can make, right?
Are yall down with this
Let's dance
How many a yall remember that?
Yall remember that?
Yall remember that record, you know it, you know it
What my DJ is going to do on the wheels of steel
Is something yall have never experienced before
The DJ Jazzy Jeff
I want yall ta bust a move, and it goes something like this
Check him out, backward
Hey Jazzy, transform
That's DJ Jazzy Jeff on the transformer scratch
Hey Jazzy, Jazzy
Wait a minute, wait a minute
They didn't make enough noise for me
Give it up for another transformer scratch
Jazzy, one more transformer
Are yall down with that, or what?
Whoooo

DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince Live At Union Square (November 1986) Comments
  1. H.... C....

    union square on 14th street on Manhattan?

  2. T.... A....

    Damn I remember like yesterday when Lady B played the whole thing on her "Street Beat" show..Goosebumps!!!

  3. C.... ....

    That shit gives me chills I had that record at 8 years old .hip-hop never dies💯

  4. l.... ....

    This and the Rhythm Trax are the two best tracks on the album imo. The way he transformed that Dance to the Drummers beat breakdown is the best transforming I've ever heard even to this day. Its also the speed at which he did it which is very tough to do let alone in a live environment in the mid 80s when he would only have had 6 months to a year to perfect it as it was a brand new technique. The cross fader sounds super sharp like a switch.

    l.... ....

    No Doubt!!

  5. g.... h....

    I don't smile and this sh_t here makes me happy every time I hear this, a little dated, but still timeless and competitive with anything out now

  6. G.... H....

    this should be put in top 10 classic rap songs by any standard..you have a fine example of what rap really is..roots represented right here

  7. J.... ....

    This was the tune that got me into Jazz and and the Fresh Prince

  8. D.... J....

    Even in 2019, absolutely nobody can touch DJ Jazzy Jeff.

  9. I.... ....

    Will even sounds Young.

  10. P.... R....

    Jazzy Jeff changed the entire DJ game after this... He was The King after this..

  11. h.... ....

  12. Y.... W....

    Jazzy Jeff is underrated. 1 of the dopest djs gettin it.

  13. J.... L....

  23. J.... S....

    Jazzy Jeff Got Sick With It On That Transformer Cut... Nasty👍

    J.... S....

    Damn skippy. He's part of how said cut will never be played out. Point blank

  24. 2.... ....

    To date, NOBODY can touch Jazzy, Period!!!

    2.... ....

    Change The World DJ Joe Cooley is about the only one that can go toe to toe with Jeff. IMO

    2.... ....

    Damn right!!

    2.... ....

    well..mixmaster mike for example

  25. g.... d....

    he was so ahead of his time that when he throws that first Transformer he gets no crowd reaction because it's over their head they don't understand what he's doing but when he slows it down and shows them what the fuck he's doing then all of a sudden they're like oh shit that is fucking dope and I imitated emulated and try to copy that for fucking years listen I can transform my own way but he paved the way for me to be able to even understand what that is

  26. O.... H....

    The fresh prince of bel air show was kinda good and funny

    O.... H....

    It was hilarious. What's wrong with you? (Will Smith was ALL personality!)

    O.... H....

    Funny as fuck loved it

  27. A.... W....

    This is my favorite of Fresh Prince. He could really rock the house.

    A.... W....

    Same here.. their best track ...

  28. M.... H....

    I was 16 in "86. I had the biggest boombox on the block and I would go wherever BLASTING this good shit! Niggas acted like they didn't fuck with will because they thought his rap was too "clean". Look at him now; he's clean as a motherfucker lol. Will is a pioneer; love him or hate him and jeff, in my opinion, is the best ever. The transformer scratch still ain't to be fucked with

  29. J.... 1....

    Damn, this brings back some memories!

  30. m.... ....

    Grand Master Flash would be proud.

  31. S.... S....
