He would have celebrated his 59th birthday this year of August 25th. Most people don’t know he was originally from Tampa, FL. and attended Chamberlin High School and studied music theory at Hillsborough Community College. He played drums, piano, was a DJ and radio personality. He often would appear on radio with digital underground group member Kenny K on WMNF Radio station. He was also a talented illustrator later designing album covers and marketing materials for digital underground as well as other artistic works.
Musically, he is best known for his alter ego, Humpty Hump on “The Humpty Dance,” which reached #1 on the Billboard Rap Singles chart. He would later go on to produce “I Get Around” (2Pacalypse Now) and “So Many Tears” (Me Against The World) for Tupac Shakur. He also produced “Love Sign” (Crystal Ball) for Prince. He appeared on numerous television shows including Showtime At the Apollo (1992), The Arsenio Hall Show (1990, 1994), MTV and the Dan Aykroyd directed film “Nothing But Trouble” (1991) as well as in several documentary films. He has toured globally, including a guest appearance with good friend and mentor, George Clinton and P-Funk, at Woodstock (1999).
