Das EFX come through with a new album titled Real Hip-Hop. Available for download and streaming, the new music project lists 25 tracks. Now that is a listening experience you do not want to miss.
Das EFX’s wildly playful, rapid-fire stuttering — dense with rhymes and nonsense words — was one of the most distinctive and influential lyrical styles in early-’90s hip-hop. Krazy Drazyz (born Andre Weston; Teaneck, NJ) and Skoob (born Willie Hines) were both raised in Brooklyn, but didn’t begin performing together until they met at Virginia State University in 1988.
Das EFX caught their big break when they performed at a talent show judged by EPMD; though they didn’t win, EPMD was impressed enough to offer them a deal, and the duo became part of the Def Squad crew of protégés. The first single, the instantly memorable signature song “They Want EFX,” was a Top 40 pop hit and a Top Ten R&B hit, and helped push sales of Dead Serious past the platinum mark.
