DJ Jazzy Jeff - The Magnificent (2002) + One More Track


A lot of people went on about "Return of the Magnificent" without really giving this first LP a chance, or even worse, not knowing about it at all. It sounds much different from the "Return," mainly because Kev Brown produced 7 tracks (im not 100% sure, but knowing Kev's style, I'm gonna guess the bolded ones below are the ones he made) and others like ?uesto and Masters At Work get theirs in too. Jeff still gets his in every so often, using ever so familiar samples that make you reminisce on hip-hop earlier days rather than think you already heard this record before. Would I go as far as saying its better than the 2nd? ...Yes, I'll say it.

  1. "Da Ntro" (feat. Pauly Yamz & Baby Blak)
  2. "Shake It Off" (feat. Chef Word)
  3. "For Da Love of Da Game" (feat. Baby Blak & Pauly Yamz)
  4. "Break It Down" (feat. J-Live)
  5. "How I Do" (feat. Shawn Stockman & Cy Young)
  6. "Worldwide" (feat. Baby Blak & Pauly Yamz)
  7. "Musik Lounge" (feat. Oddisee)
  8. "Rock Wit U" (feat. Erro Roberson)
  9. "Travelz" (feat. Baby Blak & Crushall)
  10. "Scram" (feat. Freddie Foxxx)
  11. "My Peoples" (feat. Raheem DeVaughn)
  12. "Know Ur Hood" (feat. Chef Word & Pauly Yamz)
  13. "Love Saviour" (feat. Flo Brown & Raheem DeVaughn)
  14. "Mystery Man" (feat. The Last Emperor)
  15. "We Are" (feat. Cy Young & Raheem DeVaughn)
  16. "Charmed Life" (feat. J-Live)
  17. "We Live In Philly" (feat. Jill Scott)
  18. "In Time" (feat. V)
