For real! Those Yellow/ Fathead combinations were tight. By the way did Fathead ever have a solo album or an album where he was the focal artist.

Would like to know more about that Fathead & Peter Metro album on Absissa. I've got an album called »Yellowman & Fathead meets Peter Metro« on Absissa. Is it the one you refer to or another.

Was the information concerning Fatheads murder from the album or the interview in Reggae Directory?
