Homegrown Profiles: Che Fu

Television (Full Length) – 2005

This episode of C4's music series Homegrown Profiles features hip-hop star Che Fu, who began his music career with high school band The Lowdown Dirty Blues Band, which later evolved into 90s chart-toppers Supergroove. Che Fu talks about his messy split from Supergroove, and how the huge success of the single 'Chains' (with DLT) wasn't enjoyable because he was still upset by what had happened with the band. He also talks about the making of his three solo albums. Since this documentary was made in 2005, Che Fu and Supergroove have reconciled for reunion gigs.

Through a loophole in his contract Che ended his relationship with BMG and moved to Sony Music for the release of his sophomore album. Ironically Malcolm Black, the lawyer who had drawn up Che's resignation from Supergroove, was now the Director of A&R at Sony.
