Widely recognized as a core-member of the Detroit hip-hop collective Fat Killahz, Fatt Father has built a strong fan base via his work with the group, coupled with his own array of mixtapes and street projects ranging from the comedic You Are the Father to Father's Day and the impeccable Tales of a Childless Father; all of which garnered Fatt Father a lot of support and praise within the underground hip-hop community.
Guess Who's Coming To Dinner?, Fat Killahz debut album, paved the way for Fatt Father - along with his group - to share the stage with such hip-hop royalty as Ice Cube, 50 Cent, Method Man & Redman, as well as Detroit's own Slum Village, D12, and Trick Trick to name a few.
His debut self-titled album - executively produced by himself along with Trick-Trick - enabled Fatt Father to be recognized as a lyrical force even without his loyal comrades. His sophomore album Fatherly Advice (The Legend of James Evans Sr.) solidified his figurative and literal place as Detroit's hip-hop heavy-weight.
Fatt Father's consistent grind and devotion to his craft has led him to transcend locality and work with numerous artists around the globe; some as far away as New Zealand.
Most recently Fatt Father released his latest album titled Fatherhood, on July 24, 2012.
All the while Fatt Father has been in the kitchen, warming up the deep fryer, getting ready to serve his next course for hungry listeners and starved hip-hop heads the world over. Get a plate, because if you have been
in search of some real Hip Hop, congratulations…YOU FOUND IT!!!
