Dayne Jordan – “Memoirs Of Dayne Jordan” (Prod. By DJ Jazzy Jeff) [Album]
July 23, 2015
“Prior to this album, there was a lot of confusion in reference to who I am, where I come from, and what I am about. Jeff provided the perfect sonic canvas for me to paint on.â€
– Dayne Jordan
DJ Jazzy Jeff as mentor and beatmaker for this entire “Memoirs” LP really cannot be anything but set us up to expect greatness, but doesn’t that put a lot of pressure on Dayne Jordan to deliver on the expectation? Yes. And does he deliver? Solid YES! Jordan is going hard nowadays, touring the world as Jeff’s – helping rock the parties [you’ve been seeing on here] on Vinyl Destination… and yet he still gives birth to this full-length banger… AND check out the words of praise from Jeff.
“It’s rare when you work with someone who is as pure and focused as Dayne… this was hands down the most enjoyable project I’ve ever done.â€
– DJ Jazzy Jeff
‘Nuff said. Well one more thing… you get the whole sha-banga-bang for the FREE.99… stream AND download. Go. Go now! You’re welcome.

Dayne Jordan – “In Progress…†(Prod. By DJ Jazzy Jeff) [Video]

Visuals for Dayne Jordan’s single “In Progress…†(produced by DJ Jazzy Jeff) – which we posted on recently here. Timeline in the life of Jordan perfectly conveyed in this video beautifully.

Dayne Jordan – “In Progress…” (Prod. By DJ Jazzy Jeff)
June 19, 2015
Experiencing the on-the-rise moments. Really soaking them in. You get the feeling that Jordan is taking NONE of them for granted. Matter of fact you feel it in the audio for his latest Jazzy Jeff-produced single – “In Progress.” Maaan, being produced by the legendary DJ Jazzy Jeff… That’s something unbelievable to soak in (and document in song) right there!
Vinyl Destination | “DJ’s In Paris†With The Magnificent DJ Jazzy Jeff (Video)
June 16, 2015
DJ Jazzy Jeff with another Vinyl Destination episode, DJ’s In Paris going hard all across Europe. Top highlights? Number one’s GOTTA be DJ Ferno taking in the first-time-in-Paris experience with childlike wonder. Follow that IMMEDIATELY with Rich Medina talking with the crew right after the Paris leg, just before catching a train to Amsterdam for a break. That’s two. Round out the top three with Jeff’s closing comments about his back-to-nature themed room. Hilarious!
DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Vinyl Destination crew end a 10 show, 10 day run in Paris. It’s DJ Ferno’s first time in the City of Lights, so he explores the city and takes in some sights. After a few verses of “Mama I Made It,†it’s off to the gig. Jeff has a show with a dear friend, Rich Medina. The next stop is Amsterdam. With Rich joining the fun, the guys share some valuable information that makes him rethink his phone service. Feeling refreshed after some much-needed time off, the crew gets back in full gear with shows in Dresden, Germany, Warington, England and Oslo, Norway. Along the way, “Tickle me Ferno†emerges and Jeff finds out a tree grows in his hotel room.
Work hard. Party hard. Sure. But when you DJ, the party’s where you are – the Vinyl Destination (boom)!
Check out the latest Vinyl Destination "DJs in Paris!! 10 shows in 10 days! I'm CRAZY! https://t.co/cW0C2BhIqS pic.twitter.com/eHhNSdz54b

DJ Jazzy Jeff x Dayne Jordan – “Harderâ€
May 15, 2015
To the artists on the grind (and those who love them): In this life, things won’t always go the way you want ’em to go; but if you quit, they will go NOWHERE. You’ve got to hang in there and keep going if you ever hope to have a chance of getting there. Truth. To affirm this truth, and encourage, DJ Jazzy Jeff and Dayne Jordan drop a previously unreleased gem on the matter – “Harder.â€
A treat we did and never put out…
– DJ Jazzy Jeff
Good word right on time. Feel that.
Dayne Jordan – “Fellow” (Produced By DJ Jazzy Jeff) [Video]
December 10, 2014
Oh yessir! “Fellow” is the new dopeness. From the track (produced by The Magnificent DJ Jazzy Jeff)… to the lyricism… all the way to this visual that starts with Dayne Jordan making his younger self promise to leave home and travel the world at the first opportunity.
We got the audio linked up below for you, too (via earlier post). You’re welcome!
Vinyl Destination | Ep. 24 “Do Over – NZ” On Season 2 With The Magnificent DJ Jazzy Jeff (Video)
December 6, 2014
DJ Jazzy Jeff spins at one of his favorite events, The Do Over in Auckland, New Zealand, in this episode of Vinyl Destination. After a great party at the Do Over, the following day, the guys catch a ferry to Waiheke Island for a day out with the folks from Serato. While on the island, Cristopher and DJ Ferno air a disclaimer that potentially could have made for great TV. After some well deserved time off, the guys get back into the swing of things by making their way to Vietnam and no luggage.

Vinyl Destination | Ep. 22 “Man Vs. Bug†On Season 2 With The Magnificent DJ Jazzy Jeff (Video)
November 8, 2014
Another leg on the Asian tour. Macau is beautiful! Keep it moving… Thailand. Keep it moving… Bangkok, Thailand, in the midst of massive political protest marches; still Jeff and the rest bring the party. Still, keep it moving. This leg, though, is another somethin’ altogether… like a BUG’S leg – a “Man vs. Bug†challenge (um… interesting?). Yeah. Just watch above.

October 29, 2014
Had three days off… I gotta play somewhere!
– DJ Jazzy Jeff
Hip-Hop and martial arts – there’s a connection. Some real talk where the real work begins again (Manilla, Philippines). Then Jeff the crew is off and running again to Singapore, after getting some KFC. Then Tokyo, Japan. Good times on the rip-and-run-and-fun tour underway. Oh… and there’s barbecue… Korean barbeque!

October 14, 2014
I’mo eat me a scorpion… a fried scorpion… it’s gone be good…
– DJ Ferno
That’s how we’re starting? Okay, this is Vinyl Destination. This is the start of the Asian Tour. On the way to Seoul, Korea, to get it popping… like fried bugs… but nah, even though the fellas went hard with the travel (off to the Philippines in a flash), the grub, and the club work. It was a pretty chill episode overall. Enjoy it.
(Bet you want one of those doughnuts though. Bet that up!)

Vinyl Destination | Ep. 19 “Delirious” On Season 2 With The Magnificent DJ Jazzy Jeff (Video)
September 25, 2014
Guard your nuts.
– DJ Jazzy Jeff
Whew! Can we call the last leg of the European tour a wrap already? The guys are worn out – delirious with hunger and fatigue. Almost there though fellas. Three days. But… three days is time enough to get in some serious club jams, traffic jams, airport jams… all starting with the crew jammed into tiny cabs to make their way through Manchester UK the to the first gig in the ep. Real 90s Hip-Hop party in store for the locals. Just for starters. Hit play above for the rest. Hit the jump for some snaps from the clip. Go!
(Heard that Dayne Jordan jawn “All About The Art” in there, didn’t you? Yeaaah ya did. Got that for you here.)

Dayne Jordan – ‘LOST’ featuring Ebony Joi (Prod. By DJ Jazzy Jeff x James Poyser) [Video]
September 17, 2014
Can’t noooobody say Dayne don’t keep it Philly! He lassoed the fellow Philadelphans DJ Jazzy Jeff and James Poyser (of The Roots) for the production AND R&B singer Ebony Joi to do the honors on this beautiful track. I got wind of this from Dayne Jordan himself. He let me know he released a new song…“LOST.” I checked for it on his site. Boom. Doooope!
Shot the video (above) in Azerbaijan? Yeah, Dayne does world travel. Keeping it Philly doesn’t mean not getting your passport stamped.
Time ain’t money, and money ain’t time.
Truth. When money is lost, it ain’t hard to find.
– Dayne Jordan
Message! Folks listen. This is the time. This is your life. Make it the time of your life. Now, the grind is the grind; and it will wear you down. And money is a LOUSY way to keep score in the game of life. Instead living to make millions (stay out the trap!), just live! Live your passion (not for your pockets), and win! When Ebony sings ‘there’s no place there for you…get away from there soon…’ it is real! Poverty had Dayne this close to choosing to chase cash instead of his dreams. Then where would he have ended up? Likely where broken people go to die; NOWHERE (the hell where broken spirits spend eternity)! Nah. Dayne had to go. Philly emcee turned world traveler (hitting all those ‘Vinyl Destinations’ with DJ Jazzy Jeff best believe)!

DJ Jazzy Jeff – “Play Dat” feat. Dayne Jordan (Video)
September 15, 2014
Jeff is the DJ. Dayne is the rapper. Yeah. Went there with it. The man is that good! Dayne Jordan in the video with an homage to DJ Jazzy Jeff as the ultimate party rocker. Serving as Jeff’s ombudsman, Dayne shares the rebuttal every DJ wants to say when suckaz run up to the booth on some “Play Dat” ish… NO REQUESTS… Paid professional DJ at work! Similarly, Dayne’s serving notice: He will make dope music…period. And that’s that! No hit-chasing; no requests for anything else needed.
Great live performance footage presented music video style. Enjoy.

Vinyl Destination | Ep. 18 “Lessons With Jazz” On Season 2 With The Magnificent DJ Jazzy Jeff (Video)
September 11, 2014
Can I ask you a question… Was it a good fade?
– DJ Ferno
DJ Ferno gets called onto the carpet (er… couch) for a DJ Jazzy Jeff post-show reprimand. Evaluations are evaluations, wherever you work, right? Nah. You probably don’t get a camera shoved in your face the whole time your boss is giving you the talkin’ to… and you don’t likely get a real opportunity to land a ‘counter’ like Ferno did. Haa! Even getting ‘dressed down’ on these Vinyl Destination eps is classic.
It’s all about IMPACT people. Remember that ya young’ns!
Keep watching though: The crew did a double in Manchester, then get over to Preston, UK. Jeff giving love to fans and they mans’n’em, meeting and greeting and signing stuff along the way. Skillz with his commentary added in. Prepare to chuckle.
(Notice how Jeff wouldn’t make the hand gesture he did not understand for the one fan’s pic. That’s not “being rude”… actually, it’s being smart… never know who you may offend, or if you are misrepresenting yourself in some way doing things like that just because someone asks. Careful people! Lots of laughs AND lessons in this episode. Enjoy!)

Vinyl Destination | Ep. 17 “Oooh Kille’m” On Season 2 With The Magnificent DJ Jazzy Jeff (Video)
September 1, 2014
Good rest-up over the time off. Good van ride over to the hotel in England. Good sound check. Good chill time before the night’s show. Oh, speaking of chill… damn it got cold, right Steve? Bwaahahaa. All in all, no tripping just good times before, up to, and through the party set for this episode of Vinyl Solution. Until the crew gets stuck in the elevator…
We gotta draw straws to see who we gone eat…
– DJ Jazzy Jeff
Uh oh. Drama begins. The fellas get out, but it don’t stop. After the party it the after party NO! It’s a mad dash back to pack and load into the van, to dash over to another show in Ireland (Cork; where Jeff and Skillz kille’m every time with that “Jump Around” apparently), then catch a flight, to do back-shows after that (Bristol, then Manchester).
You probably recognize the work of one Dayne Jordan on the episode’s soundtrack; some of the cuts posted here on the site. Dope,
Enjoy the ep.
