It is the first day of summer and after 5 p.m., it is 84 degrees right now. So what better time to have “Summertime” by DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince as the song for #FlashbackFriday!

The song reached number #1 on the Billboard R&B charts but only #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 when it was released on June 20th, 1991

The song contains a loop of “Summertime Madness” by Kool & The Gang released in 1794.

The song did win Jeff & Will a Grammy for best rap performance by a duo or group in 1992.-DocFB

Diagnosis: Time to blast this along with “Blurred Lines” this weekend…
