The group was involved in the first Fresh Fest tour, which was the first hip hop tour to play large coliseums nationwide.In July 1986, they appeared at Philadelphia’s Spectrum Stadium in front of an audience of 18,000. 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 breakdance act.
They played sold-out venues all over Europe as no one had seen this kind of music before.
In October 2007, Whodini was an honoree at the 4th Vh1 Hip Hop Honors.
The group earned the Hip Hop Icon Award at the 3rd Annual Black Music Honors in 2018 … and Ice Cube’s “Friday” movies often referenced Whodini songs like ‘Friends’ and ‘Freaks.’
Following the news of Ecstasy’s death, Jermaine Dupri penned a heartfelt caption to the hip hop icon. “My God, this one hurts me so bad. I can’t even believe I’m posting this,” he said. “Ex, you know I love you. Thank you for every word, every conversation, every good time. May your soul rest in power.”
One love to the Fletcher family. Rest in peace our brother.
