Signed 1989 Vinyl Will Smith Jazzy Jeff Ice Cube Too Short Kid Play Jj Fad

  

This is a one of a kind and rare piece of old school hip hop history. All autographs were obtained in person at two concert events in 1989 at the Wachovia Spectrum in Philadelphia PA (which has since been demolished) by a local D. Who attended two shows there: the Eazy E and NWA Eazy Duz It tour and another Hip Hop concert. It is an unknown vinyl record that was painted yellow and blue with the Batman logo and subsequently signed by many hip-hop legends, but is in amazing condition to be 34 years old! I believe that it was likely hung up/displayed in some fashion, as there are two holes punched in it to suggest this.

This has been autographed/signed by Will Smith and DJ Jazzy Jeff in 1989 at the height of their music career; the same year they won the first Grammy award (though they infamously boycotted the event) for Hip-Hop (89 was the year that the category was created). What's unique about Smith's signature is that he signed it "Fresh Prince", which he abandoned signing very shortly after (and began signing as "Will Smith" the next year when he made his acting debut in The Fresh Prince of Bel Air).

Also, Ice Cube of N. Signed it ("ICE CUBE NWA") RIGHT before he left the group the next year to begin a solo career; so this is a rare signature as well for him to sign prominently with NWA under his name. ; EST (ESTIZINIZM) from rap group THREE TIMES DOPE who later a Grammy nominated songwriter for Beyonce; Britney Spears; Destiny's Child; rapper Eve; Meek Mill; and others. DJ B FLAT and A SHARP have signed as well. Some of the signatures are personalized to "Eric", the DJ who obtained all of them.

MELODIE, who was Krs-One's wife for years and unfortunately passed in 2012 at the age of 43. She was a prominent member of BDP and part of the classic Self-Destruction hit song.

Again, this is a one of a kind with signatures from over 30 years ago from a pivotal year in hip hop! BECKETT QUICK SIGNATURE REVIEW INCLUDED (see screenshot): "LIKELY TO PASS FULL AUTHENTICATION", so you will have peace of mind if you decide to go through the full authentication process!
