No_Face_(rap_duo)
No Face (originally known as Funktion Freaks)[1] was a New York City-based rap duo active in the early 1990s, known for their outrageous, obscene lyrics.[2] Their music became very controversial because of how over-the-top and obscene it was, with most radio programmers, including black ones, refusing to play even censored versions of their songs.[3] The duo's members were Mark Sexx and the Shah;[4] Ed Lover was also a member for a time.[1] Their only studio album, Wake Your Daughter Up, was released in 1990 on No Face Records, a label affiliated with Russell Simmons' Rush Associated Labels. The album was distributed by both Def Jam Recordings and Columbia Records.[3][5] The album featured the song "Fake Hair Wearin' Bitch", which featured 2 Live Crew.[3] In 1994, they released the single "No Brothas Allowed" on Interscope Records, accompanied by the B-side "Smashin' Fruit".[6][7] The group's only hit, "Half", was released as a single from Wake Your Daughter Up and peaked at #47 on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.[4][8]
