Biography

Das EFX is a hip-hop duo consisting of [a=Andre Weston] aka [a=Drayz] (born November 2, 1970, in Teaneck, New Jersey) and [a=Willie Hines] aka [a=Skoob] (born November 27, 1970, in Brooklyn, New York). The two met while attending Virginia State University and formed the group during their college years. Their breakthrough came after placing second in a talent show judged by [a=Parrish Smith] of [a=EPMD], who later signed them to the [a=Hit Squad (2)] collective. Das EFX gained recognition in the early 1990s for their debut album Dead Serious (1992), which introduced a distinctive lyrical style characterized by rapid delivery and playful word formations like "diggety." The album was commercially successful and went platinum. They followed up with Straight Up Sewaside (1993) and Hold It Down (1995). While initially influential, the widespread imitation of their style by other artists eventually diluted their impact in the mainstream.

LYRICS

(People people people people
people people people people)
[Verse 1: Dray, Skoob]
Shippity bop, well hot diggity, where's the iggity? The bum siggity
Niggas wanna know but check the flow my little trickity
I'm comin with the Books so kid, it looks like it's a winner
Ya better get'cha plate because I'm servin raps for dinner
See I freak it from the sewer plus I'm quick to do ya posse
I'm swoopin on the note just like I was a kamikaze
See they thought I lost my spot so they went and got real comfy
So now I gotta hit me hard and bogart like Humphrey
Ya hypocrite, I'm rippin it because I'm flyer
Ya phony, full of bologne like Oscar Meyer
See I attack a pack of rappers just for practice
I bust my tactics, I'm sharper than a f----- axe-iss

(Set it off!) One two (Set it off!)
Yeah it's the Books in reverse, the next cap sendin a big-up to my borough
I'm thorough, wetter than a ghetto from Medini-Bop
Takin lessons, swayin niggas on graffitti
Rockin other slang ranger, bring a banger ???? occasion
My nerves is achin, see I'm sick of niggas perpetratin
But can't see this, I'm screamin on they records like Beavis
or Butthead, I bust heads like Amy
Fisher isser, blisser, hit you like an accident
and if I'm in your town you might meet me at the Radisson
or splatterin, batterin crews for lip chatterin
It ain't nuttin new, that's how we do, my crew is back again

[Chorus:]

Bak 'n' affek, how's that?
(People people people people)
[x3]

[Verse 2: Dray, Skoob]

Well here I go again, so dig the flow again, try not to bite
a bigger nigga with my left and then I flick em with my right
I'm outta sight, look how I do it, ya blew it if you missed a
nigga on the microphone cos I can roll a sister
Word is bond, I'm on some nuke ----, new ---- like this
Grab a piece of steel and shoot the giff like Chris
Cringle, lost my jingle, don't it make ya shiver
Give a nigga what he needs so he can bleed when I deliver
Aah microphone check, what the heck?
I do that then because I used to catch a wreck
wit it, that's the time I hot talk, spit it
For Christ's sake I'm in to hit the brakes and you're skiddin
You ---- in, messiah did it, but y'all can keep that
Cos now I'm on some other type of flow and best believe that

And all that, small cat, my format - deranged
Honey I'm back to run things cos some things is never changed, punk!
So if you're drunk, I freak the funk until you're sober
but still be gettin chills when niggas know that winter's over
Kickin the flam yo it's the man, tick tock, I jam like gridlock
My style is fender bendin sendin rappers to the pitstop
Good lord o' mercy, hit reversy if you missed it
and busboy give the speech cos like a preacher, baby I'm twisted
Kid I swing a dome-buster light, bone crush a smith
Bust up your lips then puff up a spliff
So yo, who be dat? Dat wanna do me like this to get
booby trapped jack, cos my crew be strapped fat like dat

[Chorus]

Bust a flavor
Word up uh, yeah, uh, yeah
