Agallah, The Source (Magazine) - Unsigned Hype: Eight Off The Assassin lyrics

Being born on May 8th and
Rhyming since the age of
Eight, the 8 letter name, "Eight
Off, " came automatic, he admit's

When Legion Of DUME
(Unsigned Hype June ’92) member Schott Free
First introduced me to Eight Off
I wondered what this little
18-year-old, skinny Puerto Rican kid
Could really do later
That day, in a cipher on the roof
I found out

Before he even started rhyming
Eight Off represented with a fat
Beat box while various
Members of his crew, Nappy Assassins
Caught wreck then, off the head a capella
He kicked a rhyme with a
Flow unlike anything out now
Veins started popping out of
All exposed body parts

Since then
Eight Off has gone into the studio
And recorded tracks with Bobby Crawford
(who produced cuts for Tim Dog’s album)
And Doug King (who produced most
Of Scarface’s album) song titles alone should
Give you an idea of
Where his head’s at lyrically: "Blow Up
The Earth, " "Illified Lunatic
" "Livin’ and Sellin’ Buddha Out
Of My Ice Cream Truck
" and "My Name Ain’t Hitler" but
He’s definitely gonna hit ya

Eight Off has most recently
Signed with 720 management
(YZ’s company) and is currently
Scoping out labels
