Some blame problems with his record label that folded right before the scheduled release of his debut solo album. Others say the stresses of the unstable music industry led Fakts to turn his back on hip-hop as a profession. Whatever…

Belle Toujours (DVD)

First off, much thanks has to go out to New Yorker Films for accommodating our request.
