The Brooklyn crew comprised of Meechy Darko, Zombie Juice, and Erick Arc Elliott made their Internet debut as Flatbush Zombies with a video that celebrated two of their favorite things: weed and waffles. The duo flashed gold fangs at the camera, smoked L's like its legal, and ate waffles next to Sour Diesel nuggets.
Next came a viral spark that got the attention of hip-hop blogs and a few major labels, but it didn't stop there. After a string of trippy videos for "S.C.O.S.A."and "Face-Off (L.S.
