Biography:

Fat Pat (born Patrick Lamont Hawkins) was a rapper from Houston, Texas and an original member of DJ Screw's Screwed Up Click. Also known as Mr. Fat Pat and P-A-T, he was most prolific in the mid-1990s alongside his brother Big Hawk and longtime friend Lil' Keke. Fat Pat was signed to Wreckshop Records. Pat met DJ Screw at a young age and they were the main people who organized the Click's early material. Big Hawk joined them after Pat encouraged him to join up.

.....On February 3rd, 1998, Fat Pat received a call from a concert promoter who told him he had money to give him from an earlier show he had performed in Austin, Texas. He went to meet the promoter at the promoter's apartment and while there, he was shot and killed at the age of 26 by the promoter. The promoter had been robbed earlier in the week and thought Fat Pat was involved in it because he was seen riding around with the man who was one of Fat Pats old hustling buddies and happened to be the one who robbed the promoter, the promoter called him up there using the collection of money he owed Fat Pat from a show as the excuse to lure him there,e an arguement installed as Fat Pat denied having anything to do with it Fat Pat started to walk out the room when he was shot. He was found lying face down on the floor. Two weeks after his death, his debut album, Ghetto Dreams, was released. He was the first member of the Screwed Up Click to die, followed by DJ Screw. He is also considered a member of the 27 Club, due to his premature and tragic death. The album release party became a wake of sorts, with rap artists such as Scarface, Willie D, Lil' Keke, DJ Screw, the Botany Boys and South Park Mexican in attendance to pay their respects. Four months later Wreckshop Records released his second album, Throwed In Tha Game, which featured the single Holla At 'Cha Later. Weeks later DJ Screw and the Screwed Up Click released their group's debut album, Screwed Up For Life. He was also apart of the hit song ''Wanna Be A Baller'' by Lil Troy in 1999 that was recorded before his death.

MYSPACE BIO:

The music world has been deprived of another one of its sons. Much of the South mourned the loss of a man that stood tall amongst most men. Unfortunately, his potential was cut short by one of soceity's many ills, violence. His music made you 'love it man.' He was 'throwed in da game' and 'tops dropped' when spoke. He put 'twenty-five lighters on the dresser' and made you 'wanna be a baller.' Fat Pat was definitely primed to be the next super success story from Houston, Texas.

'If you only knew,' Houston shed tears on the announcement of Pat's passing, but his music lives on. He is an immortal figure that has earned a place in our hearts and tape decks. Screwed up member for life and death, he will forever be remembered.

Due to an overwhelming response by rap fans in the South, slain rap artist "Fat Pat's" debut album "Ghetto Dreams" sold over 20,000 copies during the first week of its release in Houston, Texas. This phenomenal album takes listeners on a mystical journey with up beat tempos and captivating tales of everyday life in the South. The originator of what is becoming widely renown as the "Screwed Up" sound, Fat Pat's posthumous success is definitely a testimonial to his memory.
