Being a kid who grew up in New York City, thought we had everything on lock. But when I heard jazzy, Jeff do the transformer on the Mr. Magic 😊show. It changed the entire game of DJing. Salute to Philly.
@@alexmack2014 All amazing DJ's, I think it comes down to memorable trademark scratches, Scratch had that on So Watcha Sayin but Cash and Jeff had memorable scraches and routines in droves and were always inventing new ones and still are, plus both amazing producers. Out of the two I say Cash has the edge but I think Jeff had the most precise and rhythmic transformer I've heard.
@@alexmack2014You can’t go wrong with any of those guys. With that being said, Cash is my favorite. But honestly, you need to look at guys like DJ Q-Bert and D-styles. Those guys are insane.
Cash is from my neighborhood so I ride wit him as the best Dj to ever do it.. He has multpile supremacy belts and was incredible on the 1200s. I remember cheating using this alt switch on the cross fader that made it sound like a transformer. Point is, Philly had the best Djs and NY had the rappers.
What Cash is trying to show calling it "rythim scratching" is what is known today as "chirp scratch". Proving that also the chirp was pioneered in Philly before the 1986 NMS. Check "scratching to the funk" out, it was first printed in 1985, in this recording you can also ear what would be know after 1987 NMS as the "joe cooley scratch" (fast babies/tears combined with chirps).
Thank you Germantown H.S finest I’ll just say I was around for some of the ride if not we were Riding the Aero 80 Scooter heading to Mickey D’s or in his Sisters basement on Champlost Ave
2:54 "Ain't nobody inventin' nothin'." Jeff's fucking mother: Apparently a goddamned prophet. I honestly can't think of a more profound thing I've heard in a long time. Legit, this is going to stick with me.
Cash Money & Jazzy Jeff were years ahead of KD using what they'd already mastered long before Bring the Beat Back. Philly's got a lot of great next level DJ's but if you listen to Jeff & Cash Money's Twins of Spin tape you'll know that it was years ahead of anything GDK was doing.
First dj i heard do it was cosmic kev at new Brunswick high school in new Jersey the following week fresh prince and jazzy jeff were on the radio in ny introducing the world to the transformer scratch it blew my mind cosmic kev was scratching rock the bells by ll cool j crazy shit i witness in new Jersey dj scene mix master caz and the twins from Asbury Park dj cheese from Plainfield dj row from freehold these guys are legends in early hiphop and no one doesn't even know these guys❤❤❤.
The way Jazzy Jeff did it was unique, it was like he was using a switch it was so sharp and had that swing which i've not really heard since, it was almost like it was talking.
@@maccagrabme Not only a better scratcher than you thought but Jazzy was also the 1986 World Seminar DJ Champ. Also the first to introduce the transformer scratch was Philly's Grand Dragon KD on Steady B's song Bring The Beat Back.
He perfected it from other cats in philly and introduced it to the world just like Scholly d started gangsta rap in 3:23 philly and the godfather and kings Ice T and NWA perfected it made it a pop heavy to the world

Jazzy and cash are the greatest…… period
Perhaps you're right. However Joe Cooley,DJ Miz,DJ Scratch,Rich Nice may beg to differ.

I agree 100%. Would love to see a video of both of them sitting down together talking about stuff like this.

Early chirp scratch there too and they dont even know it. Sick.

It's good to hear that someone gave the original DJ Spinbad from Philly his overdue props. 💪💪💪

Props to Jeff for keeping it 100. I still say he perfected it. Cash money's version was crisper but Jeff's rhythm is superb .
Dj Spinbad aka Master D from the Group Force 5 . Philly Dj revolutionized the Game.

Damn....what happened to GRAND DRAGON KD ???? He was the 1st...BRING THE BEAT BACK

I know them
the most underrated scratch ever.
Underrated by who?? The transformer is the most famous scratch ever.
The first to introduce the transformer scratch was Philly's Grand Dragon KD on Steady B's song Bring The Beat Back.
All these years I always gave credit to Jazzy Jeff for inventing it because I heard him do it first!!!
Right he introduced it to the world at union Square but cats like Cash money and Sinbadd doing it way before him in philly
The way Jazzy Jeff did it was unique, it was like he was using a switch it was so sharp and had that swing which i've not really heard since, it was almost like it was talking.
@@defcreator187 Also some basic tazers in there too? He was a lot better scratcher than I thought he was and had advanced quite a lot since 85.

Jeffrey and Jerome
Class of '88 brought me here
Cash is the funkiest
Yes and Jeff did the transformer the fastest and gave it a melody.
I know both of them watched them spin around each other on the wheels much love to Yeadon,Philly, Chester Pa.
PHILADELPHIA stand up. We was there from the beginning!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👊🏾👊🏾
Exactly!
WTF did Jeff EVER Invent?? The Peter Piper Routine?? LMAO!! Cash Money is a True Inventor a True Creator and He Wouldnt Lie about ANYTHING..,.
Cash is a douchebag.
Jazz is the truth.
Cash is by far the better Hip Hop and King of Scratch DJ. Jeff is just the prince of fresh air
Cash is tight, but Jeff’s cuts have always been cleaner.
No Disrespect to Mr. Jeff but he knows himself he can’t touch Cash $!
@@jrkeemo Cash is more sloppy.
Jeff is on point.
The dj for bring the beat back
Im actually a more fan of the joe kooly scratch "AKA" THE LA WILD STYLE SCRATCH 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽i use to burn records up with that scratch
Well it was rumored that Hit Man Howie T invented that...
Are we forgetting about Marley Marl and Hitman Howie Tee
I can't believe you'd disrespect Mixmaster Ice by not even having the decency
to mention him. SHAME ON YOU.
@@RickyVanderslice I agree. chevvy is acting like Mixmaster Ice never even existed.
I totally forgot about him @@RickyVanderslice
I guess I heard it from the horse’s mouth……. No more debates.
Q-bert & Mixmaster Ice FAR surpass Cash Money's skills.
💯
I thought Jeff invented it lol
He perfected it from other cats in philly and introduced it to the world just like Scholly d started gangsta rap in 3:23 philly and the godfather and kings Ice T and NWA perfected it made it a pop heavy to the world
@@charlieg4732 Jeff had the most precise and cleanest transformer I've ever heard, even to this date but I think Cash has the edge as a performer.
The crab scratch to me is one of the weakest scratches ever created, its too much of a off beat scratch
Love it
