THE FIVE SPOT: Fattie B of Belizbeha

Our guest selector this week is none other than Fattie B, renaissance mammal. He’s obviously got a couple dozen other accomplishments he’s just as well known for, but this week, he’s “Fattie B of Belizbeha,” friends, because Belizbeha are celebrating their 25th Anniversary at Higher Ground this Saturday, October 5th. A lifelong DJ and natural-born selector, he was of course down to contribute a 5 Spot piece.

Now, since the man is used to letting the music speak for itself, the blurbs may be shorter than usual this week … but this mix absolutely slaps. Enjoy.
