'Basically, I was absolutely brassic,' he says. Coming off a difficult divorce and a quiet stretch after Beats International, Cook found himself in a precarious financial position. 'I was one PPL check away from having to declare myself bankrupt,' he said. In those months, even someone of his pedigree had to make purely practical choices.
Cook also shared how he supplemented his income by selling a sample CD called Skip to My Loops, another project he calls “not particularly proud of,” but necessary to pay bills. Even at the height of creativity and later fame, survival sometimes dictated unusual decisions.
Fatboy Slim’s biggest hits defined the 'big beat' era of the late ’90s and early 2000s, turning him into a global household name. Tracks like The Rockafeller Skank, Praise You, and Weapon of Choice became iconic not just for their infectious beats and clever samples, but for their genre-blending creativity that fused funk, hip-hop, and electronic music. These songs served up memorable videos, most famously Christopher Walken dancing in Weapon of Choice. That's about as far from a Smurf as it's possible to get.
