Goldie earned his nickname from his gold dreadlocks that he cut off in
the 80s, and not for, as most people think, his gold teeth.
Had a much publicized brawl with Tricky.
Goldie hit fame before his music career firstly as an excellent
breakdancer with the B Boys breakdancing crew in Wolverhampton, and
secondly as a critically acclaimed graffiti artist who painted with
other famous graffiti artists throughout the UK and the United States.
