12" - 1994 - Homegrown Records

Screem! was a rap trio consisted of Badger, Chizzle and Demon hailing from Flatbush, Brooklyn. They released in 1994 their first and only one single "Hot Peas 'N' Butter" on the Brooklyn-based record label named Homegrown Records which was founded by the members of the group named Full Force. Screem! was their first signing group.

The wax is composed of 2 songs titled "Hot Peas 'N' Butter" and "Ill Tippy Toe". "Hot Peas 'N' Butter" is the lead single of the record and is available in 5 versions (Album, Mystic Mix, Cook 'n' Curry Mix, Radio and Basement Dweller Mix) produced by K Swift, J Blood and Hidden Agenda. "Ill Tippy Toe" is the last track of the B-Side and is produced by Basement Dwellers and Hidden Agenda.

That's all I know about this group... I've tried to ask a few questions to some of the Full Force Members... but no answers until now, so I don't know what happened to the forthcoming "Screem For Ya Life" album... Sorry Matt ;)
