    Do they really qualify for this description in Strut's opinion?

    How viable do folks think a "hip hop oldies" circuit would be for these 90s dudes? Evidently, Young MC can get paid for corporate gigs (or, uh, Juggalo festivals) but will aging backpackers pay money to go see Das Efx get their tongue-twiggity-twist on?

    This ones gold: http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/sfo/19552203.html

    Highlights:

    the highschool reunion was a Booming success with a multimedia nostalgia presentation and a bouncing dancefloor.

    I'm equipped with lots of asian rhythms, african and Caribbean beats, and latin grooves

    I master smooth transitions between songs...but am limited on my music collection (although it is growing, I buy new CDs for each party, including yours). I have also recently done a few 12,13, & 14 year birthday parties (so I now have a lot of up to date hip hop and pop).

    I spin CDs. I don't have much experience spinning records. If you want vinyl, I understand and have recommendations.

    As far as the Das Efx post, I know they haven't been completely "well off" the past few years. Drayzie was living around the corner from my man in Columbia, MD a few years back. He was living with his girl in, I think, a condo. They were still doing gigs and you could tell it wasn't really worth talking about. Pretty humble dude though. He gave me & my man a lot industry pointers, info & advice. Also, he would take the time to listen to anything you gave him.

    I was about to say. I can't believe people are still getting hype out here over A Tribe Called Quest coming out. Don't get me wrong, ATCQ are one of the most influential rap groups of our time. But it's about 10-12 years too late... I'm a grumpy old man. I have not been to a rap show in years. Nor do I plan to ever go again if I can help it!

    Yes. You can not like them, or think they're washed up all you want, but their style switched up hip hop lyrically to a certain extent.

    that lady aint 26, as much to contrary as shopping in the juniors section might lead one to beleive.

    Haha really??

    Dudes were doing the tongue twisting shit prior to them, and the whole "iggidy wiggidy" style got dissed hard in subsequent years.

    File under "bad rap fads"

    Son, how dare you downplay the iggity! I'll knock your tophat back!

    as much as the iggity-wiggity style got played out, it was dope as hell when it dropped and you heard Das Efx rock shit for the first time....

    cant front most were all over it...just like cats were wearing their clothes backwards when KrisKross dropped....lol

    As much as dudes single out Das for their rhyme delivery "gimmick", I think their cartoon/free association/commercial & jingles/ rhymes were unique compared to what other mcs were doin.

  • dj_cityboydj_cityboy 1,484 Posts
    Das Efx and Home Team had that same kinda flow going on..anyone heard any of the earlier (before dead serious) stuff?

  • The only real response to this ad should be to call and quote Das lyrics.

    "hello, is this the boogidy woogidy brooklyn boy?"

    "I've got an anatomical question... what exactly is connected to the hip bone?"

    "turkey sausages vs. pork sausages. Discuss."

    "should we grab the train, or walk?"

    "why *is* everybody always picking on me?"
