Success-n-Effect

Success-n-Effect was an Atlanta based hip hop group known for their controversial 1989 single "Roll It Up My Nigga". The group started out as part of a mixed tape crew named EDWARD J & THE J TEAM. King Edward J as he is referred to now is credited as being the original mixed tape king in Atlanta, Georgia. King Edward J is responsible for the 1st Generation of the J Team that included Edward J, Lady DJ, Dangerous D, MC Shy D, DJ Man, DJ Len, and Professor Lazy Rock. The 2nd Generation of the J Team which formed after DJ Len and Professor Lazy Rock signed their record deal included King Edward J, DJ Kizzy Rock, MC Jamm, Magic Mark, Playa Poncho, DJ Smurf A.K.A. (Mr. Collipark), Dee Most Def, Erica D, China, DJ Majesty, DJ Dlx, DJ T-Bone, DJ Jaycee (Ludacris' official DJ), and Tre Luv. Success-n-Effect's hit song used extreme racial language but ends on a positive anti-drug, pro-education message. The group is considered one of the more well known early political hip hop groups.^[1] DJ Len and Professor Lazy Rock were among its core members.^[2] They released 2 of their 3 albums on Ichiban Records. King Edward J is also known for the birth of mixing slow R&B jams with an up-tempo beat.
