“Attack of the Weirdos” is the debut EP by Bizarre, released September 1, 1998, on Federation Records on CD and cassette.
The story
At the time Bizarre was a member of two collectives, Detroit’s D12 and the Outsidaz, and he brought members of both crews onto the record. The EP earned Bizarre the Inner City Flava of the Year award in 1998.
Sound and production
The seven tracks run just over 28 minutes. Production came from DJ Head, Mr. Porter, Hush, J Dilla and Mad Chemist. Eminem and Fuzz Scoota appear on “Trife Thieves”, Da Brigade features on “What, What”, and the Outsidaz join the closing “Get the Dick (Raw Mix)”. Other tracks include “Rap Guys”, “Down Low”, “Over React” and “Butterfly”.
Legacy
The EP predates D12’s 2001 debut album and is an early document of the circle around the group, with J Dilla and Mr. Porter among its producers. A 20th-anniversary reissue was announced in May 2018 and released through Majik Ninja Entertainment and Federation Records.
