Prince Fatty is a highly acclaimed artist in the world of reggae and dub music. With a career spanning over two decades, he has become known for his unique sound and production style that pays homage to the classic Jamaican roots reggae era. Drawing inspiration from legendary figures such as *King Tubby* and *Lee "Scratch" Perry*, Prince Fatty has carved out his own distinct niche within the genre.

His collaborations with artists like *Gentleman's Dub Club*, *Hollie Cook*, and *Little Roy* have further solidified his reputation as a producer who can bring out the best in any performer. His ability to blend traditional reggae elements with modern influences has earned him a loyal fan base around the world.

Prince Fatty's discography includes notable releases such as "Survival of the Fattest" and "In The Viper's Shadow," which showcase his talent for creating infectious grooves and captivating melodies. His work with artists like *Mad Professor*, *Horace Andy*, and *Sly & Robbie* demonstrates his versatility as a collaborator, while also highlighting his commitment to preserving the authenticity of reggae music.

The second album from reggae master Prince Fatty. As well as versions of favourite reggae and soul songs, two tracks stand out: covers of Ol' Dirty Bastard's Shimmy Shimmy Ya and Cypress Hill's Insane in the Brain. "I was sad when Ol' Dirty passed away and for me the great hip hop era ended with him. I cut the version of Shimmy Shimmy Ya soon after he died. As a tribute we often hold a minute's silence when Horseman and I perform it live. We did Insane In The Brain for fun as we had a show supporting Madness. The nutty boys challenged us to a sound clash and they lost. Though we played a dirty hand, they were gracious in defeat." The vocal line-up on the album also include Hollie Cook - Slits singer, daughter of Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook and fellow Mr Bongo signing. Also on the album is a dub of That Very Night that features on Hollies debut album.
