06.13.09 This past week MTV featured an article written DJ EFN titled "Remembering Miami's Lost Hip Hop Scene" below is the original unedited version of the article DJ EFN wrote:
By now, most would come to know Miami by its familiar South Beach real-estate, Cuban cuisine and its bass heavy musical history headed by Uncle Luke. Miami actually has a deep rooted history steeped in Hip Hop culture. Few thought of Miami as a play ground for B-Boy's and B-Girls, but in the early
1990's that's exactly what Miami was. This was the scene that birthed and nurtured my passion for Hip Hop. The city of Miami would be nothing had it not been for the pioneering music of Luke & The 2 Live Crew, Poison Clan, DJ Uncle Al, The Sugar Hill Dj's, DJ Laz, Ghetto Style Dj's, and all the other
Bass artist and dj's that paved the way for Miami's music scene. However, few know of the DJ's, MC's, Graffiti Writers and B-Boy's that put their blood sweat and tears to equally pave the way for what is now seen as one of Hip Hop's power house cities! For some reason this scene was lost therefor was not
added to the history books and given its proper recognition. Only to be reminisced, in oral exchanges spoken amongst those that lived it. Many of us veterans remain from this scene and are still strong forces within the Miami Hip Hop industry. This is my recollection of this scene, how I experienced it and
the people and places that I saw during this period. [continue reading]

03.22.09 Back to the business of making serious music. The Dysfunct is gearing up to make their mark on the scene with their first official video for their single "BLIND". Both "Blind" and "Throw it All Away" are both available on Itunes now. So without further a due we present the video for Blind:
03.20.09 Who is DA FEW? Da few is an ongoing joke around the Crazy Hood offices. Da few was created as a comedic parody to the group DA ALL several years ago. The groups members are Eddie "Gigs", EFN, & Orlando (Heckler's Brother) which are Crazy Hood members that don't rhyme. The lack of rhyme skill is what makes Da Few a hilarious concept which has spilled over from an inside joke to a full length video! This may not be the last time you hear from Da Few. Watch and have a laugh, its on us!
03.17.09 Lets get right to it! The long awaited Capone-n-Noreaga album is in stores now! Channel 10 is there third album and features production by DJ Premier,
Alchemist, SPK, Ron Browz, Street Runner as well as Crazy Hoods own Big Drain and Hazardis Soundz and more. The albums A&R is no other then Crazy Hood CEO, DJ EFN. Guest features

latest video released from the album.

02.26.09 Hope everyone out there is doing good so far, we know things are proving tough for a lot of people with the economy
and just plain old life itself can be a bitch! But here comes Crazy News to the rescue with some plain old "get your mind of shit" gossip!
Here at Crazy News we rarely partake in entertainment gossip or boast about people involved in criminal activities but this particular
hit close to home. At the end of the day this turned out to be more comedic then dramatic, so here's the scoop. This past weekend various
Crazy Hood members and good friend N.O.R.E. went out on the town to party. After a night of clubbing the guys stopped by South Beach's
Fat Burger. While in the burger joint an alleged altercation took place with some rather rambunctious group of people. This resulted in
N.O.R.E. and a few other people getting arrested, two of them being our own Eddie "gigs" and Borracka Boris. The news of the arrest
spread quick and made nationwide headlines. Most, if not all the official news reports were wrong or exaggerated. Here are some of the
reports from MTV News and NBC.
All this press gave way to heavy blogger activity including the mega celebrity blogger Perez Hilton. Perez Hilton is known for
trashing celebrities in which he did the same to N.O.R.E.. N.O.R.E. got wind of this in which he started throwing back disses at Perez starting on Twitter.com. The twitter beef started going
back and forth between the two resulting in even more attention to this already ridiculous situation. N.O.R.E. then put our two video's mocking Perez Hilton, as if Perez had jacked him for
his jewelry. Playing the part of Perez Hilton was our very own comedian Eddie "Gigs". Eddie "Gigs" is also known as the street team director for C.H.P. Marketing & Promotions, as well
as having a side gig doing comedy sketches such as the Sumo Chronicles part 1, part 2 and comedic appearances
on the popular porn site BangBros.com. After all the N.O.R.E. / Perez videos both of them were guest on Los Angeles Power 106 morning show with Big Boy. On the show they both spoke their peace and squashed the comedic
internet beef! Now we can all get back to the business of making good music!!!
 
02.03.09 Here is some behind the scene footage of the mayhem that occurs during our SIRIUS / XM Satellite Radio show. This clip was from last weeks show, in which N.O.R.E. brought a bottle of the infamous Tiger Bone Wine and coaxed everyone into drinking the heinous liquid.
01.15.09 Crazy Hood Productions is also home to some incredible producers and this next video is one such producer putting it down with N.O.R.E. and Sean Kingston at his home studio in Miramar Florida.
01.12.09 The following video is of N.O.R.E. & DJ EFN on stage with Redman & Method Man at the 2008 Rock the Bells concert in Miami. The footage was given to us by our peoples at Gas Face films / THC crew.

Happy new year to all you hoods and hoodette's! We are finally back to update you on the wonderful world of Crazy Hood. Where to start, where to start?? For
starters we would like to congratulate our boy N.O.R.E. who has lost damn near a quarter of his body weight and staying very committed to his new healthy way of
living, so be sure to check out his progress on his blog 57th Ave Blog. This year look likes its going to be a very busy year for Crazy Hood. Later this month
we will be releasing the first official single on The Dysfunct. The Dysfunct is a collaboration between Garcia and his cousin Addrien and you can check out their
music at The Dysfunct. We will also be releasing Garcia's third full length album "Shattered Dreams" by the end of February. We will also be releasing
a production compilation with original instrumentals produced by Hazardis Soundz, Big Drain and Nomadic trackz. All our releases are being released with our partners
Latchkey Recordings and Koch records exclusively through Itunes. Capone-n-Noreaga's highly anticipated third full length release titled "Channel 10" is set to be
released early next month. The album features production by Crazy Hoods own Hazardis Soundz and Big Drain as well vocals by Vlad aka the hood Luther Vandross.
Heckler has also been busy in the studio cooking up some freestyles which we decided to slap together some visuals for. Check out Heckler "Get Up" freestyle and
"M.I.A. Slit Throats videos now. Last but definitely not least check out the behind the scenes footage of "Who's Crazy? The Tattoo" as we document our new street
team member as he tattoos Crazy Hoods famous slogan on the back of his head! We can't make this shit up!!!!
11.20.08 We have good news and we have bad news. I will start off with the bad news; Militainment Crazy Raw Radio on 66 Raw / XM Satellite Radio has been taken off 66 RAW for good! The good news is we have been added to the new post merger programing at Siruis / XM Sateliite radio. We are now on Hip hop Nation / Siruis / XM Satellite Radio. The show has been extended another hour and given a new time slot of Thursday nights 12AM to 2AM Eastern Time. Its a huge deal for us to of survived the merger with so many of the shows being dropped around us. That means our audience quadruples in size giving us an outlet of millions of listeners world wide! You can read more about the show and the merger on allhiphop.com In other news DJ EFN is set to start buzzing his mixtape album project due out next year. You can look forward to new tracks as well as remixes of past mixtape exclusives. Garcia and cousin Adrianne will be releasing their first official single off The Dysfunct project come this January so make sure to look out for that on Itunes. Talking about Itunes, get ready for something special on the Itunes horizon featuring production by Hazardis Soundz, Big Drain and bortha from another motha Nomadic Trackz. We have also been mentioning to look forward to Crazy Hood produced beats on the new CNN album "Channel 10" due out early 2009. Currently you can hear a new track by our cousin N.O.R.E. featuring Ron Browz (of Nas "Either" fame) and Busta Ryhmes. The track is produced by Ron Browz as well as vocals by him and Busta Ryhmes. The joint is crazy and definitely going to heat up the club scene. Heckler is still no joke, and about to release a couple of crazy video freestyles to keep his fan calm before the storm of his album release due out in May 2009. Shouts to Skam2? who came by the office the other night, Kether @ Latchkey, everyone @ Power Moves Marketing, and our latest street soldier Tattoo!

10.02.08 Yes we know, your upset with us because we take so damn long to update our news! Well....we are back! Might as well update you on what's been going on in the past month or so. If you were in Miami for Rock the Bells then you got a special Crazy Hood treat. N.O.R.E., & DJ EFN were brought out by Redman and Method man and N.O.R.E. performed his hit single "Nuthin". While at the Rock The Bells the guys kicked it with DJ Green Lantern, Mos Def, and Tribe Called Quest to name a few. The concert was a real crowd pleaser and we look forward to next years event. This past month was N.O.R.E.'s birthday and Crazy Hood helped throw N.O.R.E. a celebrity birthday bash which featured Fat Joe, DJ Khaled, B.E.T.'s Q45, Mobb Deep's Havoc and many more. The night went down without a hitch and everyone including the promoters at Sobe Live enjoyed themselves. The party was featured on Miami's local channel 7 "Deco Drive" as well as covered by Hip Hop Weekly and other publications and websites. While on the topic of N.O.R.E., the CNN album has been pushed back a couple months and will most likely see a early 2009 release. The album; titled Channel 10, is in its final stages of being mixed down by Crazy Hoods own Hazardis Soundz which will also feature production by Haz and Big Drain of Crazy Hood Productions.
DJ EFN has released a single which has sparked rumors of a DJ EFN album but Crazy News has yet to confirm this. The single is titled "Frontline" and features Heckler, Bun B and I-20 of Ludacris's DTP camp with production from no other then Big Drain of Crazy Hood Productions. Talking about Heckler, Heckler has just jumped into the entrepreneur seat and opened up his own Italian restaurant and pizzeria in the Pembroke Pines area just north of Miami. Heckler is about to release a slew of freestyles promoting the new Crazy Hood mixtape and his upcoming "No Joke" release. Onto Garcia news; Garcia is also about to release a slew of mixtape in support of the new mixtape, his upcoming album and new project with cousin Adrienne (The Dysfunct). If your in the Miami area this weekend and want to check in with the Crazy Hood family go by the Marlin Hotel on Saturday for some old-school vibes with the Hood DJ's and then walk on over to Sobe Live with DJ EFN, and MTV's Sway!
