Legendary DJ and GRAMMY award-winning producer releases the long-awaited final installment of his "Magnificent" series; celebrates first studio album as an independent artist
DJ Jazzy Jeff releases M3, the finale of his Magnificent series. More than a decade after the earlier installments (The Magnificent, 2002 and The Return of the Magnificent, 2007), M3 is Jeff's first studio album to be released as an independent artist.
With M3, DJ Jazzy Jeff celebrates unhindered creativity. He enlists world-class musicians from his PLAYLIST artist network, Daniel Crawford, Kaidi Tatham, and Philadelphia collective Killiam Shakespeare, to set the tone from this highly anticipated project. Other notable M3 contributors include James Poyser (Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Mariah Carey), Andre Harris (Jill Scott, Usher, Justin Beiber), Stro Elliot (The Roots, The Procussions) and Jeff Bradshaw (acclaimed Trombonist). While staying true to his b-boy roots with classic boom bap drums, Jeff infuses a myriad of sounds that have influenced his production over the years. The result is a cohesive mix of hip-hop, R&B, funk, jazz and house.
DJ Jazzy Jeff brings extraordinary artists together to present a multigenerational perspective on life, love, the current state of society, and the music industry. The Trinity, comprised of Grammy and Oscar award-winning MC Rhymefest, Philadelphia MC Dayne Jordan and multitalented artist Uhmeer, serves as M3's primary storytellers. With three distinct styles, the trio is a recipe for an unprecedented flow and a magical delivery. The Trinity lays the foundation of real hip-hop with tracks including The Beginning, Scars, and Where You At. Things lighten up with feel good tune Skater's Paradise, and a tribute to the ladies, Stronger Than Me. And M3 wouldn't be complete without a few soulful voices. Singer/Songwriter Aaron Camper provides his sultry sound to Midnight Escapade and The Way We Cool. Maimouna Youssef lends her soulful harmony to Child of God, and Masego adds his signature trap-jazz flair to 2Step.
M3 is a memoir, love story, how-to manual and manifesto all in one. As a renowned DJ and producer, DJ Jazzy Jeff's career spans decades, genres and generations. M3 is a reflection of that existence and his declaration of independence.
"For me, M3 represents freedom as an artist and in business," said DJ Jazzy Jeff. "After all these years in the business, it's liberating to finally be totally independent. Hopefully, I inspire others to take charge of their own destiny."
