The Fat Boys Are Back

Hey y'all...who know who the fat boys are. I remember this one track about Dr Bruce Banner. But I don't remember the name of it. Most of the CD sites out there don't have track listings so I can't figure it out. Can someone help me out with the name of this hilarious track?

Buffy The Human Beatbox died.

Prince Markie Dee has a thriving career in pop/urban music (see: Mary J Blige, Jennifer Lopez).

Funny this thread should come up. I'm listening to Can You Feel It right now! music

Disco 3 forever! I've been a fan since I was about 10-years-old. Prince Markie Dee isn't dead. He actually did a lot of producing in the 1990s. He did some work on Mary J.'s first album and worked with Mariah and a few others I can't recall at this point. The Human Beat Box died in 1995, sadly, due to complications from his weight. The Fat Boys get somewhat of a bum rap because they went pop later in their career, but so what? When they were most popular, nobody in rap was having as much fun as they were, and it showed.

Some of my favorite tunes:

Fat Boys
Jail House Rap
Human Beat Box
(Stick 'em! Huh huh huh stick 'em!)
Don't Be Stupid
All You Can Eat
Fat Boys Are Back
Can You Feel It


And their version of Sex Machine cracks me up!

Ahhh, yes, The Fat Boys. Last week I was gonna start a thread about them being hip-hop's/rap's first sell outs, turning into a straight-up novelty act.
I'm sick and tired of the Prince fans being sick and tired of the Prince fans that are sick and tired!

I always liked "All You Can Eat." I pulled out my Krush Groove soundtrack yesterday.

I wish Warner Bros. would remaster this and put it on cd. I have the tape.

prince markie dee's Typical reasons (swing my way) was one of the great "message" jams back in the day (spousal abuse)...he slimmed down a lot after the fat boys..he was one of the first puerto rican rappers, before there was big pun and fat joe

but...the movie disordelies was some trash mad
you look better on your facebook page than you do in person hmph!

Disorderlies and Punch Drunk Love were the only movies I ever walked out on. Sorry to hear about the Human Beat Box. He was my favorite beat boxer next to Dougie Fresh. They would have to be my all-time favorite beat boxers ever. Now if I could only think of a third one.

Thank you and everyone else for checking. I think I'm going to be forced to assume it was someone else then. I could have sworn it was the Fat Boys. I must be wrong. I've researched everything I could and didn't find anything either. sad
