Bio



Wreckx-N-Effect was a New Jack Swing band, that had their only hit "Rump Shaker", in 1992.

The band, composed of Markell Riley, Brandon Mitchell, and Aquil Davidson, formed around 1989, and released their self-titled debut album the same year. The album was produced by producer/songwriter Teddy Riley, who was Markell's brother, and Brandon's half brother. It reached #16 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, and #103 on The Billboard Top 200 chart, while its singles "Juicy" and "New Jack Swing" had a similar fate. Brandon was killed, soon after, in a shooting.

The band, then composed of only Markell and Aquail, followed up their first album with Hard Or Smooth in 1992. Hard Or Smooth fared better than the first album, reaching #6 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, and #9 on The Billboard Top 200 chart, and producing the hit single "Rump Shaker." Its accompanying video went on to get a lot of heat for its showing of half naked women.

Wreckx-N-Effect had then reached their peak, and after releasing a long delayed third album Rap's New Generation, in 1996, that flopped, disbanded.
