DJ Jazzy Jeff is used to being around royalty. He manned the turntables for the Fresh Prince in the late ’80s before becoming Will Smith’s TV sidekick. Now, the Philadelphia native is set to release his latest mixtape, I’m the DJ, He’s the King, dedicated to the late King of Pop, Michael Jackson.

Tracklist + Download link after the jump…

“After Mike passed, I really started digging, and I found a bunch of stuff that I didn’t know Mike had, especially with the Jackson 5,” Jeff told MTV News. “He had a whole bunch of albums that go completely past people. I think people just go for [popular songs like] ‘I Want You Back,’ ‘Never Can Say Goodbye’ — and there was a bunch of obscure albums that all had really good stuff on them. Then it was hard, because I wanted to keep it one CD and not make it a Mike anthology. I wanted to just make it something that was entertaining, that you could just play from the beginning to end.”

The 49-song mixtape is sponsored by Undcrwrn apparel and will be available for free download on their site starting Monday (October 26), on the eve of premiere of the concert documentary, “Michael Jackson’s This Is It.” The mixtape cover, featuring an illustrated take on Jeff and Smith’s album He’s the DJ, I’m the Rapper, is also printed on a T-shirt from Udrcrwn, retailing for $32.

Jeff said he was inspired to do the mixtape after fellow DJ Mick Boogie suggested putting his playlist together as a proper release.

“I did it exactly as I would play it out live,” Jeff explained. “I kind of wanted to give a feel like you heard it in a club. I didn’t necessarily want to go in a certain order, ’cause everybody in the world plays certain Michael Jackson songs. And I wanted to play songs that not everyone plays, play some obscure album cuts. And if you listen to it, I have some a capella and versions of songs that not everyone had heard. So, I kind of wanted to mix it up and keep people off guard. Just give them an example of all that Michael was like.”

The set features a range of MJ music, from classics like “Human Nature” and “Billie Jean” to not-so-familiar remixes, including a Pete Rock take on the Jackson 5’s “2-4-6-8,” featuring CL Smooth, and mix of “Rock With You,” featuring Fela Kuti.

“He just has a lot of good songs,” Jeff said. “That’s what I really wanted to focus on. You can go to any club in the world and hear ‘Billie Jean,’ you can hear ‘Beat It,’ you can hear ‘Wanna Be Starting Something’ — those are his main staples that an Eskimo in Alaska knows.”

Here it is folks. The much anticipated single from the upcoming MJ music documentary (which opens October 28th for a two week limited run). Equipped with backup vocals from The Jacksons, the single will be featured on a two-disc companion set that features original album masters of some of Jackson’s biggest hits.

… will happen this Sunday at the MTV VMA ceremony as the show’s opener. Hm… I don’t know anybody who’s “nominated,” but this may seem like something I should watch. Props to Aura.

Crooked I’s band of brothers decide to end their August series by rockin’ over Michael Jackson’s Dirty Diana. And when I say rockin’ I really meant to say they tear it to shreds. And just because the series is over, it doesn’t mean you’ll stop hearing from the gang as they are planning to drop some actual songs in the near future. Get ready… COB!

Fresh off their Off the Wall project, ESSO & Woody wanted to shed some solo light on ES’ favorite joint…

This is one of my favorite songs from Off The Wall because it speaks to just how ambitious I really am. The first line by itself should tell you everything you need to know about my attitude: “Why aim and not aim for Greatness?” Woody laced the track incredibly as always and being that its the last song on the project I thought it was a great way to end it off.

We’re shooting the video for this today as well, so look out for that coming real soon! Shouts to Puma behind the lens as always!

The Milkman’s Way Off the Wall Wednesdays series begins with an interview with SAB Radio (above) as well as the first leak off his Michael Jackson inspired project; which will feature the likes of 6th Sense, Fresh Daily, Black ELement, Jelani, Print and more.

This is a track off the Way Off The Wall project I have been working on for the past few months. Creating this song just showed me what a MONSTER 6th Sense is when it comes to work ethic. I was at home in NY right before I started my job in February, and 6th sent me a message that he was going to start writing to the beat. An hour later, he sent me a few lines, at which point I knew it was going to be crazy. A few hours later he sent me the finished track. WHAT? I know this track goes hard and hopefully you’ll all enjoy it; watch the video and be on the lookout for more. Shout outs to Black Element who convinced me to not just drop the instrumentals, but to forget about self-imposed deadlines and finish the project out consistent with my original vision.

For those following my every word (or those that check my Twitter every now and then) should know I’ve been traveling around like a madman and have been battling for internet connections. Anyways… there’s a few things I gotta get up before I lose connection (again). Anyways, here goes the first installment of Motown’s Michael Jackson: Remix Suite; in which Universal Motown grabbed some producers to remix 20 MJ/5 Jackson 5 cuts. All praise Splash Jackson for the links…
