Generation EFX is the fourth album by Brooklyn-based Rap duo Das EFX, released on March 24, 1998. It was poorly received commercially and critically ignored. Its failure may be attributed to its lack of a single. The bulk of its production is done by 8-Off, PMD and long time Das EFX collaborators Derek Lynch and Chris Charity. Unlike the first three Das EFX albums, it features many guest appearances, including contributions from Redman, Miss Jones, Knoc-Turn'al, M.O.P. and EPMD, Miss Jones and Teflon.
