DJ Jubilee (born Jerome Temple) is an American rapper from New Orleans, Louisiana.
Temple grew up in the St. Thomas Housing Development in New Orleans. He graduated from Grambling State University and is a football coach and a special education teacher.
DJ Jubilee began DJing at parties in the 1980s and achieved significant recognition for his 1993 cassette single Do The Jubilee All. This song contains the first recorded use of the word 'twerk'.
DJ Jubilee's 1998 album Take It To the St. Thomas debuted at #61 on Billboard’s Top R&B albums chart for the week of May 9, 1998.
In November 2013, DJ Jubilee headlined the first bounce show to be performed at New Orleans' Preservation Hall with the Big Easy Bounce Band.
The 2000 504 Boyz hit single "Wobble Wobble" was inspired by a DJ Jubilee lyric.
Take Fo' Records unsuccessfully sued Cash Money Records alleging that Juvenile's "Back That Azz Up" infringed the copyright of DJ Jubilee's "Back That A$$ Up".
