Don Johnson Big Band - Jah Jah Blow Job

Review by Jason Doggett

Jah Jah Blow Job by Don Johnson Big Band: A Finnish Hip-Hop Oddity That Actually Slaps Alright, let’s get one thing straight—naming an album Jah Jah Blow Job is either genius or someone was having a really weird day. Either way, it sticks in your brain like gum on a hot sidewalk. Released back in 2003 under Beat Back and Universal, this Finnish hip-hop gem (yes, Finland, land of saunas and metal, also does rap) feels like the musical equivalent of finding a hidden comic book in a library full of encyclopedias. It’s quirky, bold, and doesn’t take itself too seriously. The album kicks off with “One MC, One Delay,” which is exactly what it sounds like—a stripped-down banger where clever wordplay meets trippy echo effects. You can tell DJBB had fun messing around with this track because it's got that loose, freestyle vibe that makes you wanna nod along while pretending you’re deep in thought. The live version from Provinssirock 2003 adds some sweaty festival energy to the mix, but honestly, I prefer the studio cut for its raw charm. It’s not trying to reinvent the wheel; it just wants to make sure the wheel spins real smooth. Then there’s the title track, “Jah Jah Blow Job.” Yeah, yeah, we all chuckled at the name, but stick with me here. This song is wild. With multiple remixes scattered across the album, it’s clear they were going for maximum impact. The original version hits hard with its bass-heavy groove, but the "Weapons Of Bass Destruction Remix" takes things up a notch—or five. Imagine being at a rave inside a submarine during an earthquake. That’s this remix. JS666’s feature adds extra spice, turning what could’ve been a gimmicky track into something unexpectedly memorable. Quintessence’s riot remix? Equally bonkers, equally brilliant. Now, credit where it’s due: mastering wizard Pauli Saastamoinen deserves props for keeping the chaos sounding crisp. And kudos to the band themselves for handling photography and design—because who better to capture their own chaotic brilliance than the creators themselves? So why does this album stick out? Maybe it’s the sheer audacity of naming a track after both Rastafarian vibes and… well, you know. Or maybe it’s how unapologetically Finnish it feels—like someone took American hip-hop, threw it into a sauna, and let it marinate in local eccentricity. Whatever it is, Jah Jah Blow Job proves that sometimes the best art comes from tossing rules out the window and embracing the absurd. Final thought? If aliens ever invade Earth and demand proof that humans have a sense of humor, I’m handing them this album. They’ll either leave us alone or start headbopping to the beat. Either way, win-win.
