Carl Douglas is a Jamaican-born disco and R & B singer, most famous for the one-hit wonder Kung Fu Fighting, which hit #1 in the Billboard charts in 1974. The fame of this homage to martial arts films has overshadowed the rest of the singer's career, resulting in his appearance on cover versions of the song.
Douglas has made some side appearances in Konami's Bemani game series. He is credited with "Kung Fu Fighting" (Feat. Bus Stop, a classic rock cover group.) The song primered in Dance Dance Revolution 1st Mix. A remix of the song, titled "Kung Fu Fighting (Miami Booty Mix)", again featuring Bus Stop, premiered in DDR Solo 2000. Neither song has been seen in any future releases of Dance Dance Revolution, or any of the Bemani games.
