Pudgee Tha Phat Bastard

Pudgee Tha Phat Bastard is a notable figure in early 90s hip-hop, known for his role in the punchline rap genre. Born in Harlem, New York, he later moved to The Bronx. He was part of the Trackmasterz crew and released a strong debut album titled "Give 'Em The Finger," which featured collaborations with artists like Kool G Rap, MC Lyte, and Snaggapuss. His career was marked by personal setbacks, including the loss of close friends within the music industry, which led to a hiatus from the spotlight for over a decade. Despite this, Pudgee continued to contribute to music, sometimes under different names, and has recently released several albums and singles, including "Jupiter" and "Go Crazy".

Pudgee Tha Phat Bastard is also recognized for his contributions outside of his own music, working as a ghostwriter and producer. His recent releases reflect his ongoing engagement with the music industry after a period of absence. Despite his earlier public withdrawal, he remains a respected figure in underground hip-hop circles.
