Not a lot is known about Prince Vallah(I believe this is the correct spelling). A mate of mine who is heavily tattoed and into the history of tatooeing has been trying to research him. Incidently my mate done a rock & roll night where his co DJ adopted the Prince Vallah monicker. I think Prince Vallah may have been of Afro Carribean ethniciticity although i cant be sure, Hope this helps Johnny.
