DJ Jazzy Jeff Says DJ Hero Feature ‘Dream Come True'

Posted Thu Jul 30, 2009 6:37pm PDT by Billy Johnson, Jr. in Hip-Hop Media Training

I'm not really into video games, but I need to get DJ Hero. I'm sure I'm not the only one who wishes he could mix and scratch on a set of turntables.

The legendary DJ Jazzy Jeff is featured in DJ Hero and he describes the experience as the ultimate honor. "To have a song in DJ Hero is like a dream come true," Jeff says in a DJ Hero promo video. "To be a character that someone can pick up and select you and play is probably the biggest thing to ever happen to me."

That's saying a lot, considering he is half of the legendary, multiplatinum hip-hop duo DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince that also featured Will Smith. They were the first hip-hop group to win a Grammy, and he popularized the transformer scratching style.
