In this interview, the legendary DJ Jazzy Jeff talks about working with the young Eminem before "The Slim Shady LP" even came out, recalls the infamous meeting and coversation between Will Smith & Eminem, explains why his 1998 solo album for Sony Records never came out and shares the back story to his commercial campaign with Starter in the 90's. The artist also remembers hanging out in Philly with J Dilla who used to call him "Uncle Jeff", speaks on the things he's learned from Jay Dee as a producer and defines the meaning of a "Real DJ", as well as the importance of turntablism. What's more, Jeff talks about the movie offers he got after "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" became a success on TV, the unreleased, lost video for "A Nightmare on My Street", discussions with Will Smith regarding music industry and the classic, colorful "Homebase" jackets. You'll also hear about the unreleeased LPs with Rhymefest & singer Ayah, the Vinyl Destination video series, "The Magnificent" recording process and Jeff's plans for the future!
