On July 8, 1983, the group released the self-titled album Whodini on vinyl and audio cassettes. Whodini is a hip hop group that was formed in 1981. A number of songs from the album received heavy local New York airplay, such as "Funky Beat" and the controversial “I’m a Ho”. From the laid back groove titled "Five Minutes of Funk" to "Friends", a cynical story of betrayal sampled everywhere from Nas' "If I Ruled the World (Imagine That)" to 2Pac's "Troublesome '96", to harder edged singles "Freaks Come Out at Nite" and "Big Mouth". The instrumental version of "Five Minutes of Funk" was used as the theme music for WNYC TV show Video Music Box, an influential early hip hop music video show. Their sixth album Six produced one single, "Keep Running Back", and appeared briefly on the R&B chart.

Pastor Troy remixed "Friends" into a song entitled "Benz". With the fourth album Open Sesame, its final release of the 1980s, the group had turned away from their once-playful simple beats and catchy rhymes of the old school and instead became vocally more harder and more instrument-driven, with guitars and horns and bells. The group's records have now become sample sources for contemporary emcees such as Nas, Master P, Prodigy, and MF Doom.[9]. They were the first Rap Act and Break Dance troop to Tour in the UK and Europe, with UTFO also appearing with them as their break dance act. The bulk of production on their releases was done by Larry Smith, a bass player who also handled much of Run-D.M.C.’s early work. On May 17, 2011, a deluxe version of Escape was released on CD with nine bonus tracks. The Brooklyn, New York-based trio consisted of vocalist and main lyricist Jalil Hutchins; co-vocalist John Fletcher, aka Ecstasy (who wore a Zorro-style hat as his trademark); and turntable artist DJ Drew Carter, aka Grandmaster Dee.
