Editorial Reviews

Vibe
With their fourth album, Generation EFX, Dray and Skoob seem content merely to continue the same siggity sewer-oriented mission that they began six years ago.... The duo's formula works, though, on the tantalizing title track, which features EPMD sparring with braggy, freestyle rhymes over the theme from Rocky III.... But less impressive are tracks like the lead single, "Rap Scholar," which does feature an audacious appearance from Redman.... Das EFX were once a groundbreaking tandem, but their latest mediocre album is evidence of how even premier lyricists need superior powerful beats to push them over the top.

Option
Das EFX has created a record with the repetitious beats, funeral music and gruff vocals of a gangsta CD, while avoiding most of the hyperbolic excesses of the gangstas.

3.0 out of 5 stars Diggedy Das come back with the goods, but enough goods????, April 22, 2001
Yeah, this may not be the best album they have relesed but they are comin' back with another to put the nonbelievers to rest. Check it out, there really aren't to many albums out there that sound like this one...for better or worse. It's decent, I diggedy dig it. Keep it real Das!!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Disapointed, April 10, 2000
this is probably the biggest disapointment I've ever had in a CD. When I bought this I was expecting the crazy Das Efx from Sewaside, Dead Serios and hold it down. If you know das efx then don't get this album. The beats are all the same and the lyrics are wack compared to what they used to be.

5.0 out of 5 stars OFF THE ROCKER, November 20, 1998
By A Customer
Das Efx is the only group to keep the same phat style over the years. I have been a true fan from the beginning.The HIT SQUAD is the illest in inventing the phatest beats, the base is unbeleivable.
