 This is their second best album............
He's the DJ is the best album by them. Homebase is definitely one of the best clean pop rap albums in history.

Top Joints:
I'm All That

You Saw My Blinker

 Homebase is a excellent album.........
DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince's Homebase is another excellent album by this duo. This album contains the duo's most remembered hit Summertime (I said that Parent's Just don't understand was their biggest hit, but Summertime is their mist remembered hit). This album is also very good, but as the tracks go on the album does seem to lose its touch. I do like most of the tracks, but some songs like You Saw My Blinker just doesn't seem to fit with the feeling of the rest of the album. All in all this is a very good album to buy, but only if you have purchased another album first. Of all their albums, this one seems to be an "acquired taste". February 21, 2006

 Homebase
Word that describes this: Smooth.

Summertime, This Boy Is Smooth, The Things That U Do, Ring My Bell, Caught In the MIddle, etc.. This is a feel-good album that you can just play over and over again, especially in the summertime. "A Dog Is A Dog" and "You Saw My Blinker" are just plain hilarious.

I'd put this just below "He's the DJ, I'm the Rapper", which is Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince's best album. "Code Red" is also a really underrated album. JJFP also manage to keep to their style during the ever changing times of hip hop, and they just keep putting out dope albums. August 19, 2005

 Will Smith the King of Crap Rap
You may want to brush your teeth twice after suffering through this bubblegum, sugar coated load of junk that passed as music. Will SMith has the talent of an ingrown toenail, but the sheep of America kept buying it up. I wish he had disappeared like Jazzy, but maybe we can watch Ali II someday and realize that as an actor and a rapper, Will can thank God everyday he was born in the USA where any idiot can milk fifteen minutes of fame into a lifetime.

 It's All That.
I hadn't listened to this CD in awhile prior to writing this review. So I went back and listened to it, and I don't know why I hadn't listed to it. It is such a good CD. Almost flawless.

The opening track, I'm All That, is one of the top tracks on the disc, and you can tell by this track that this is going to be a great CD. He raps about, well, being all that. And I believe that this disc is all that because he is all that.

If you're reading this carefully, you saw I wrote "Almost flawless." The flaw: Track six "A dog is a dog." It pretty much .... I can't listen to it for more than thirty seconds. The chorus to me is like nails down a chalkboard.

The other tracks make up for it though. They're all really good. And here's the top five in no particular order.

1. I'm All That
2. You Saw My Blinker
3. Trapped on the Dance Floor
4. Caught in the Middle (Love & Life)
5. The Things You Do

If you noticed too, I didn't include Summertime because it simply isn't one of the top tracks despite what the Grammy's say.

Okey-Dokey, wrap-up. This is Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince's best record. It's funny, it has good tracks, and it's worth your money. This is the last funny record they released because Code Red wasn't a funny CD, good, but not funny. So buy this.

(In case your curious, there's a hidden track on this CD. At least on the newer copies because I got mine a year or two ago, and I'm not sure about the old copies. It's right after track twelve, it's the version of Ring My Bell that can be heard on their Greatest Hits disc.) March 12, 2003
