Biography

Eric Strand (born September 28, 1980 in San Francisco, California), better known as Fatgums, is an American record producer, hip hop DJ and independent record label owner/president. He is best known for his work with rapper Bambu of the rap group Native Guns. Fatgums' independent record label, Beatrock Music, was founded in 2009 in collaboration with the Long Beach based clothing company Beatrock.

Background

Fatgums started his music career in 1993 as a DJ/turntablist in the San Francisco Bay Area. In 1999, he moved to Los Angeles to attend college at UCLA. He began his professional hip hop production career after graduating in 2004.

Recent and current projects

In April 2009, Fatgums and Bambu released the critically acclaimed EP, Beatrock Presents: Fatgums x Bambu ...A Peaceful Riot.... The musical chemistry between Fatgums and Bambu has been likened to that of 9th Wonder and Murs. Bookends (produced by Fatgums and Gammaray) by Novelists (Ajax and Randall Park aka Randruff), was his first full-length production effort.
