Das EFX - Klap Ya Handz

Das EFX - Klap Ya Handz - Das EFX is an American hip hop duo. It consists of emcees Skoob (also known as Books, born William "Willie" Hines, November 27, 1970) and Dray (also known as Krazy Drayzy, born Andre Weston, September 9, 1970). They rose to popularity in the early 1990s due to their affiliation with EPMD's Hit Squad and the duo's stream of consciousness lyrical delivery, which became one of the most influential lyrical styles in hip hop music during the early 1990s. Their style combined nonsensical lines with a fast-paced flow (that included words that end with "-iggedy") and numerous pop culture references.

    Noticed that there wasn’t as much “iggity” in this single. This was before they recorded the dead serious album. This was the song they used when they competed for $100.00 in Virginia. EPMD was so impressed with them that they offered them a record deal.

    Your comment is beyond wack! I’m stunned by you ignorance. Das EFX had their own unique style of real hip hop. It wasn’t about storytelling. It wasn’t about bitches and hoes. It wasn’t about cars and clothes. It wasn’t about money. It was about the beats, the music, and using the rhythm of their voices and words to build good vibes. As much as people try to ignore it, their word selection, delivery, and syncopation are crucial to their style. Those elements were carefully thought out. This was good music to play at parties, parties where people just wanted to dance and have fun. Young guys and gals could hang out, hook up, and have a good time. Nobody wanted to fight. People don’t dance no more at parties. They beef and then shoot the place up! The fact that you don’t get Das EFX and say their lyrics are wack proves you don’t get them. They never had particularly profound lyrics and it wasn’t about that anyway! They made music to make people feel good.

    Music was different when this came out. This album came out in 1992. I was in high school and this album was hot! How old are you? This album is probably before your time. You needed to be there to understand.

    Pure hip hop, pristine beat, sharp memorable rhymes, and infinite replay value! One of my all time favorites, gotta play it sometimes to get my fix!
