He started his career with the seminal NZ band Supergroove. Shortly after he broke from the band in 1996, he released his first single ‘Chains’ a duet with DLT that went straight to #1 on the NZ Singles charts, and stayed there for 5 consecutive weeks. It went on to reach Platinum and was the landmark single that brought NZ Hip Hop to mass attention.
Che Fu has released three solo albums and one greatest hits compilation: 2b S.PACiFiC, Navigator, and Beneath The Radar and Hi-Score: The Best of Che-Fu.
Navigator is a combination of 13 tracks developed musically and lyrically by Che Fu. His love of reggae, funk, soul, rap and hip hop were his inspiration. "Fade Away" and "Random" were the first two singles released off the album, and both did well in the New Zealand charts. His album also sees him collaborate with D.J P-Money and The Villajah M.Cs.

Catch One
Che Fu Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
on-ly love can let you know,
She was holding up her banner when somebody screamed get down,
When everyone rushed the streets in panic,
Then he pulled her from the crowd,
Later when everything had cooled out,
She explained to him her mind,
Chorus:
The other half of the circle,
The other side of the sun,
You best to catch one x4
When he saw her marching for our peoples rights he knew that day,
When a commotion broke out police loc-ed out she ran into his way,
After a care conversation it still amazes him right now,
How she believed in so much right then she touched his heart and yes
that's how she was............
These are the words that they would drop on me when I was feeling low,
If my parents weren't persistent then I guess I would not know,
If this person that I'm seeing is to never be alone,
Then my mama hands me strawberries and sez pick up the phone
and call your..........
Chorus:
(The) Other half of the circle the side of the sun you best
to catch one x4
Only love can let you know if it's,
only love can let you know
The lyrics to Che Fu’s song ‘Catch One’ speak about the power of love and the way it can bring people together, even in difficult situations. The song opens with the repetition of the line “only love can let you know”, highlighting the central theme of the song. The first verse describes a scenario where a woman is protesting and holding up a banner when chaos breaks out. However, a man saves her and they later bond over coffee and strawberries, an unexpected outcome to a tense situation.
The second verse is about how the man sees the woman protesting for their people's rights and is drawn to her. When the police tried to control the protest, she runs towards him and they end up having a deep conversation. He is amazed by her passion and determination, which inspires him. The chorus speaks of catching the other half of the circle, the other side of the sun, which is likely a metaphor for finding one's soulmate or completing oneself.
The final verse describes how the artist's parents encouraged him to keep looking for love when he was feeling low. They suggest that he should call the person he's seeing, emphasizing the importance of communication and making efforts in relationships. The lyrics end as they began, emphasizing that only love can let you know.

Only love can reveal if it's
only love can let you know
Only love can reveal if it's
