Shouldn't the head of the article be called Joseph Christie as Braintax is merely a pseudonym, also more importantly Braintax was a due act, I believe when Fat Head EP was made this was still the case - the other artist's name should be recognised if anyone can find it.

No, I think the article should be called Braintax as this name is synonymous with, and more widely known than Joe Chrsitie. I've amended the article to include the other original member, DJ T.E.S.T.

Braintax didn't rap about the Iraq war on Birofunk - the album was released before September 11th 2001!
Actually he made a references about the Twin Towers, and insisted the songs were recorded before 9-11, however the album was released AFTER 9-11.

Braintax Production Credits
I've been trying to think of ways to expand the article, maybe a list of songs Braintax has produced would be interesting? I will begin a list below that we can all contribute to and when it comes more comprehensive we can add it to the article.

Nope. He ofcourse wrote all the lyrics, which is why 'J. Christie' appears on the credits, but as for the actually track, he produced just the four listed.

Brilliant, i don't have this one, guessing it wasn't released in CD format. If you're feeling brave enough Christopher you can add it to the article!

I think it would be better to leave it on the album articles and keep it off the main article. I will create some more articles for the rest of the albums later this month. —

To clarify my last comment: I meant I think we should keep the songs I added to the list above, which Braintax produced on Braintax's own albums, off the Braintax article, as they are already referenced on their respective album articles. I'm not opposed to referencing Braintax being a producer of other artists on this article; I’ll add it later if no one else does. —
Christopher Mann McKaytalk08:13, 12 July 2007 (UTC)reply
I remember reading ages ago that Braintax was born and lived in rural Yorkshire until his family later moved to Leeds, but i can't find the link to source it, anyone know about this ?
Gazh11:42, 2 October 2007 (UTC)reply
No mention of his alleged taking of other artists money on low life when he disappeared? should there be? Both Chester P and Lewis Parker have talked about it in interviews...it would be a way to extend the article. [1][2]
I came here also to ask if this is worth mentioning, Skinnyman has also spoke about it too, which makes at least three very, very influential people in the british hip-hop scene to publicly talk about this.
