Scha Dara Parr (スチャダラパー Suchadarapā?), or SDP for short, is a three-member Japanese hip-hop group that formed in 1988 and debuted in 1990.

History
The group consists of two MCs, Bose and Ani, and one DJ, Shinco. Scha Dara Parr is often compared to rap trio the Beastie Boys due to their similar lyrical stylings, presence, and music. When pushed to describe the rebelliousness of their music, the group commented that many of their songs are simply fragments of conversation without polite words.[1]
The group is best known for their 1994 hit single, "Kon'ya wa Boogie-Back" (今夜はブギー・バック Kon'ya wa Bugī Bakku?) featuring Kenji Ozawa (小沢 健二?), which attained sales of over 500,000 units. The song is based on samples from En Vogue's 1992 single, "Give It Up, Turn It Loose."[citation needed]
Scha Dara Parr gained minor US recognition by appearing on De La Soul's 1993 album, Buhloone Mindstate. The group rapped in a mixture of mostly Japanese and some English on the track "Long Island Wildin'".
