Whodini

Comprising Ecstasy, Jalil, and Grandmaster Dee, Brooklyn's Whodini were a powerful and pioneering force of Old School Rap. They first appeared in '82 with the release of their single "Magic's Wand." Their debut album followed one year later, fuelled by their Halloween-themed hit "Haunted House Of Rock." Successfully merging hip-hop with soul/R&B, and Electro, they won major props with the classic tracks "Friends" and "Freaks Come Out At Night," among others. Their second LP, Escape (1984) was a platinum selling mega-hit. They went on to release four more albums, their last in '96.
