The president and creator of Crazy Hood Productions, DJ
EFN, along side the Crazy Hood's, began his attack on the
local Miami Hip Hop scene in 1992-93. He began making mix
tapes in his local neighborhood of Kendall, later
distributing throughout the entire Miami area. He quickly
became a local favorite, selling hundreds of tapes. Having
established the popularity of Crazy Hood mix tapes in the
local area, he began networking and acquired international
distribution on Crazy Hood Mixtapes. Using Crazy Hood
Mixtapes to bring notoriety to Crazy Hood Productions and
everything it had to offer, EFN was labeled "Miami's Mixtape
King" from people within the industry. Not only were

Redman, Capone-N-Noreaga, Krs-One, Wu-Tang, Ja Rule, Sean
Paul, Joe Budden, Lil Jon, David Banner and many more.
