Bruce Edward Washington Jr. (April 3, 1973 – July 10, 2015),[2] better known by his stage name Hussein Fatal or sometimes as Fatal Hussein, was an American rapper, best known for his collaborative work with Tupac Shakur as a member of the rap group Outlaw Immortalz or just Outlawz.
Fatal was born Bruce Edward Washington Jr. on April 3, 1973.[2]
Career
Washington first appeared as "Hussein Fatal" in February 1996 on the songs "All Bout U" and "When We Ride" from Shakur's album All Eyez on Me. As a member of the Outlaw Immortalz, his name was chosen to evoke a villain, Iraqi president Saddam Hussein. In June 1996, he was featured on Shakur's song "Hit 'Em Up", insulting Shakur's rivals in the song's second verse.[citation needed]
After Shakur was fatally shot in September 1996 and Outlawz member Yaki Kadafi was murdered in November, Washington didn't appear on another recording until 1998 when Relativity Records released his first solo album In the Line of Fire.[4] Unfortunately the label went bankrupt; the album wasn't promoted and sold poorly.[citation needed]
Washington then signed with Rap-A-Lot Records and began work on a second solo studio album, Death Before Dishonor, recording over 40 songs before being arrested in December 1999 for an assault committed three years earlier. Rap-A-Lot Records released the album as Fatal after he was paroled in 2002.[citation needed]
In 2003, Washington performed on four songs of Ja Rule's album Blood in My Eye: "The Life", "It's Murda (Freestyle)", "The Wrap (Freestyle)" and the eponymous title track, "Blood in My Eye". He also appeared on the remix of Ashanti's "Rain On Me", and in Ja Rule's "Clap Back" music video.[citation needed]
He performed again with Outlawz on their 2010 mixtape Killuminati 2K10 and their 2011 mixtape Killuminati 2K11,[5] and on the 2011 album, Perfect Timing. He also appeared on the tracks "Emancipation" and "Welcome To Real Life",[citation needed] from fellow Outlawz member Young Noble's 2012 album Son of God.[citation needed] He continued to release mixtapes on his own label, Thugtertainment, until his death.[citation needed]
