Jazzy Jeff Collabs With Method Man, De La Soul, Big Daddy Kane, Rhymefest, KRS One

by JOKESTA

FRIDAY NOVEMBER 17, 2006

Dj Jazzy Jeff is getting ready to release “The Return of the Magnificent,” the follow-up to his 2002 solo debut “The Magnificent”. The album, entirely produced by Jazzy Jeff himself will feature appearances from Method Man, De La Soul, Big Daddy Kane, Rhymefest, and KRS One amongst many others.
Although the album is relatively finished, Jazzy Jeff says he still isn’t completely happy with it. “I technically could be done. I probably was done about a month-and-a-half ago and I’m just really tweaking stuff,” the DJ tells Billboard.com, “I came to the conclusion today that I’m just gonna go home, finish everything that I’ve done so far and just close it out, but I never want to say I’m done.”

Sticking to the recipe of “The Magnificent”, Jeff says he will continue to blend various genres for “The Return” with collabos from artists such as Raheem DeVaughn, Kardinal Offishall, Little Brother and CL Smooth.

“As a DJ, I like playing all kinds of different music so it’s the same thing when it comes down to making it,” says Jeff. “A lot of producers don’t really have the ability to go outside of what they’re known for [but] I’ve done a little bit of everything. So to be able to do a record that touches on R&B, soul, some hip-hop, house, and not really be confined was a treat for me because it’s not really an artist album. It’s more like a producer album. It’s almost like you’re going to your favorite restaurant and you order your favorite meal. When you go back, you’re really mad if they don’t have itm so I wanted to keep the same formula that I had with the last album but be a little bit more progressive with it. I went from every genre of music that I had something to do with.”
