Why he might be annoying:

    Biographies say he may have been born in Barbados and not the US Virgin Islands.
    Many of his early singles command high prices because they were never released on CD.
    He billed himself as 'The World's Greatest Entertainer.'
    He is a Scientologist and contributed songs to the Scientology album 'The Joy of Creating.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was one of the first and best human beatboxes.
    He attracted attention early on for his ability to rock a crowd live.
    A proponent of artists' rights, he serves on the board of The Artist Empowerment Coalition.
    He said 'Hip-hop is supposed to uplift and create, to educate people on a larger level and to make a change.'
