Fat Pat

Fat Pat, a Houston rapper belonging to both the Screwed Up Click and DEA (Dead End Alliance), lost his life to gunfire in 1998. That same year the Wreckshop label issued his first two solo albums, Ghetto Dreams and Throwed in da Game, which appeared after he was fatally shot outside his promoter’s apartment. Eight years afterward his brother, fellow Screwed Up Click member John “Big Hawk” Hawkins, was likewise shot to death outside his Houston home.
