Shabazz the Disciple
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shabazz the Disciple, Birth name David Collins, formerly known as Scientific Shabazz, An original member of the Sunz of Man and Da Last Future. Originally made up the duo The Disciples with Killah Priest, and later formed the duo Celestial Souljahz with Freestyle of The Arsonists [1]. Possibly best known for his guest appearance on the Gravediggaz 1994 hit single "Diary of a Madman", and for his controversial 1995 single "Death be the Penalty" . Shabazz released a handful of singles in the mid-90s, such as "Death be the Penalty", "Crime Saga", "The Lamb's Blood" and "Street Parables" , in anticipation of his planned 1998 debut LP on GZA's GZA Entertainment imprint. However, the label folded and his relationship with the Clan soon strained, leading him to cut his Wu-affiliate ties [2]. Shabazz finally released his debut album The Book of Shabazz (Hidden Scrollz) in 2003, featuring his past singles "The Lamb's Blood", "Crime Saga", "Street Parables" and "Organized Rime Part 2", as well as the single "Red Hook Day" b/w "Thieves in da Nite (Heist)". In 2008, Shabazz formed the group T.H.U.G. Angelz with fellow Sunz of Man member Hell Razah and producer Ayatollah. The group's debut, Welcome to Red Hook Houses, will be released July 8, 2008 on Babygrande Records.
