Brand new sealed 180 gram reissue.
Che Fu's influential debut album 2b S.Pacific, originally released in 1998, melded Pasifika with reggae, soul and hip hop, to create a unique musical home brew.
The first single 'Scene III' peaked at number four on the singles chart, and the follow-up 'Without A Doubt' (a double A-side, paired with 'Machine Talk') went all the way to number one.
The album also features 'Chains', Che's 1996 collaboration with Hip Hop producer DLT, which spent 5 weeks at number one.
This ground breaking debut album went on to sell double platinum and spawn four top-ten hits, which was unheard of for a local hip hop artist at the time. The following year, Che received the 'Single Of The Year' award for Scene II at the New Zealand Music awards.
