The Outhere Brothers

The Outhere Brothers were formed in Chicago, Illinois, by songwriter Craig Simkins (born 31 July 1973) and producer Lamar Mahone (born 12 June 1970), who met in 1987 and began writing and producing together. Their early recordings found a receptive European club audience, and the duo’s first major hit, "Fuk U in the Ass", appeared in 1994, charting in the Netherlands and sparking international interest. This momentum led to the release of the "Pass the Toilet Paper" single and the album 1 Polish 2 Biscuits & A Fish Sandwich (1994), followed by the album The Party Album (1995). The duo’s breakthrough came with "Don’t Stop (Wiggle Wiggle)" in 1995, which reached number one in the United Kingdom, and soon after "Boom Boom Boom" topped the German chart, entered the European top ten, and sold over one million copies, earning gold and platinum certifications in Australia and France. Their fifth single, "La La La Hey Hey", sustained their European popularity, while their debut album was later reissued as The Party Album. After a brief hiatus, they returned in 1997 with "Let Me Hear You Say Ole Ole" and the album The Other Side, which failed to achieve prior success, and the group quietly disbanded. Lamar Mahone released a solo single in 2000, and two best‑of compilations were issued in 2003 and 2004, but the duo’s influence remained largely confined to their mid‑1990s European hit‑making era.
