Smif-N-Wessun is a prominent hip-hop duo from Brooklyn, New York, composed of members Tek and Steele. Known for their gritty, street-oriented sound and dark, jazzy beats, their music reflects the hardcore style of East Coast rap in the 1990s. Their debut album, "Dah Shinin'", released in 1995, is considered a significant work in the underground hip-hop scene, featuring their signature hit "Bucktown." Smif-N-Wessun's work has been influential in shaping the New York hip-hop sound, particularly within the Boot Camp Clik collective.
