I can't believe people in the comments call this gibberish?!?! It is not, they are lyrically taking bits and pieces of Pop culture from the 70s and 80s and making it into a song about themselves, taking bits of shows and commercials like Sampling but with words from old TV. GENIUS
Yeah. If people read the lyrics that they provide here, you can tell they're not speaking gibberish. I'm picking up on stuff now that I didn't get when this was first released. A lot of it goes over people's heads.
@Molly M. when they came out I was only 14 years old. Many of the references you may understand, but there are some that, as you grow older, there are other you pick up on. Most people hear the pop culture references, but in the middle of that they're throwing bars, left and right. That's why having the lyrics on hand are useful, especially regarding their style of rap. It's similar to Twista.
Yes they were their lyrics was fire there bars was crazy and there flow was unique nobody had that kind of flow they were killing that rap game with that flow fire

Das Efx was a genius. He changed hip hop forever. when this came out it sounded like somethng from space. he shook up hip hop and with other great rappers laid the foundation lot of later rappers .
Whoever calls this gibberish, was born in the 2000. They have no idea. You had to be born between 1900 & 60 and 1900 & late 80 to understand the true history and meaning of this craft & history of hip hop!!!

This is real hip-hop. This is what I listen to In the summer of 1994 1:19 1995. This younger generation today they don't know what hip-hop is. Today's music is straight garbage. This is hip hop, real lyrics, real lyricist🎤🎙💪🔥🔥🔥💯
Eastcoast went so hard, the way they energetically flow with the echo and crazy beat,the shoutout and beat change and back.E-dub,KrsOne,Ra.,BroJ.samps and a figgedy fuggin explosion in the end!
This record dropped my senior year of high school, this went hard af back in '93. A true banger without any real cursing and references to violence. The word play of these brothers are second to none!
Not only their rapping style, but they really changed the game with what they were wearing. The Tims, along with the baggy pants, and the Locs hairstyle. They were definitely trend setters and folks still wear that now.

I’m only 19 years old and yet I still decided to purchase the three of Das EFX’s best selling albums, “Dead Serious”, “Straight Up Sewaside”, and “Hold It Down”.

2 of the most original, iconic, and unrecognized MC's to ever touch the microphone 🎤 🧐🙏🏽
I miss early 90s hip-hop music videos. So much of what I still listen to came from countless hours of watching YO! MTV Raps.
This is when hip-hop was incredible original and innovative!!!
Played this in my tape deck until it broke!
One of the DOPEST hip hop artists from my day. Still good after all these years and as always got me bouncin'
No doubt!
2 of the best that ever did it much respect
Lord have mercy this WAS and STILL IS the JAM!!! I play this loudly in my car at the young age of 57yrs. This stuff out today is noooooo comparison!
I'm 47 and doing the same. Everything these days is garbage. Never saw a world where old people listen to rap. But here we are
This whole album was fire
If you were there then there is no question how hard these dudes rocked and their impact!!
This gave birth to the "shizzle my nizzle" wordplay.
Flow and Cadence in this song alone is INSANE !
Das EFX is on another level,to be honest. The bases,the rhymes...everything. My favorite 90’s rap by far.👌🏻
Back in my teens 💯💪🏼
The adlibs…..the screaming, neck cracking….amd that “OOOOO!….WEEEEE!”….i remember this man…..
This was fresh at the time and still holds its own today.
When hip hop wasn't scared to be experimental
Eastcoast went so hard, the way they energetically flow with the echo and crazy beat,the shoutout and beat change and back.E-dub,KrsOne,Ra.,BroJ.samps and a figgedy fuggin explosion in the end!
