- 'Summertime' is a song by American hip-hop duo DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince. It was released in May 1991 as the lead single from their fourth studio album, Homebase. The song was produced by Chicago-based producers Hula and K. Fingers, and it won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group at the 1992 Grammy Awards.
The song's instrumentation samples 'Summer Madness' by Kool & the Gang, particularly the rising F# octaves played on an ARP 2600 synthesizer.
Steve Huey from AllMusic said that 'Summertime' 'was a warm, breezy reminiscence about growing up in Philadelphia and attending barbecues where the whole community showed up to see and be seen.' He added, 'It had all the good vibes of a typical Fresh Prince number, but it was clearly a more mature effort, and that's Homebase in a nutshell.'[3]Larry Flick from Billboard magazine wrote, 'Pop/rap duo returns with this steamy hip-hop jam that is sure to quickly heat up radio airwaves thanks to its catchy chorus and clever wordplay.'[4] James Bernard from Entertainment Weekly described the song as 'absolutely uplifting'.[5]People stated that 'the musical backing is more sophisticated', describing it as 'a smooth Gershwin via Kool & the Gang version'.[6]Rolling Stone magazine placed it at number 9 in its 2013 'Best Summer Songs of All Time', saying, 'Over a funky laid back beat, a young Will Smith does a fantastic Rakim impression over a sample of Kool & the Gang's 'Summer Madness' and drops a sweet ode to hanging out and driving around his native Philly: 'Honking at the honey in front of you with the light eyes/ She turn around to see what you beeping at/ It's like the summer's a natural aphrodisiac.' It's still hip-hop's finest summer celebration.'[7]

- Lyrics of this song at MetroLyrics
2017 marks eight years since DJ Jazzy Jeff and MICK (fka Mick Boogie) started their Summertime series. From jump, these became some of the best things to look forward to in 2010s Hip-Hop. True to the sets of each acclaimed DJ, these mixes flex Hip-Hop, R&B, Rock, Funk, Jazz, and some Rare Groove. Both mixmasters are accomplished producers, also leading the remixes within to extend well past basic blends or rare alternates. Of course, it all begins with a new mix of the title cut.
This year, the two OGs deliver again. Hip-Hop Heads can look forward to lots of Native Tongues, Nas, Beanie Sigel, and M-O-B-B. However, there are key cuts by Kenny Loggins, Chaka Khan, Quincy Jones, and Barry White too. On the deeper side, look forward to InI, DJ Spinna, and an unlikely pick from Toto. As barbecue season is just igniting, this is another sure-shot party-starter playlist.
