Originally called the Disco 3, the Fat Boys--Prince Markie Dee, Kool Rock-Ski, and Buffy the Human Beatbox-- were Brooklyn high-school cronies who rose to popularity in the early 1980s thanks to their accessible, party-oriented rhymes. With six LPs (one platinum, three gold), two feature films (1986's KRUSH GROOVE, 1987's DISORDERLIES), collaborations with the Beach Boys and Chubby Checker, and a slew of influential classics to their credit, the Fat Boys were beloved for their brand of self-deprecating lyrics and concept songs. In 1995, Buffy died at age 28 from heart failure. Contemporarily viewed by many as a novelty act, the Fat Boys were significant for bringing rap music to mainstream America as well as being one of the first groups to utilize the beatbox.
