Spearhead/Disposable Heroes

The Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy created one of my favorite albums of the 90's Hypocrisy Is the Greatest Luxury. It's a really really good political industrial hip hop album that sits really well next to Consolidated and Jello Biafra.

Anyway after this brilliant album Michael Franti went off to be part of Spearhead and created Home. Slighty less political, no industrial, more r&b. Very good. The second album was Chocolate Superhigh way. Which I never really got on with.

Anyway Spearhead is now Michael Franti & Spearhead and I've just got Stay Human. On the first listen it's as good as Home. Still more r&b than hip hop. Very political. Very very good.

Expect it to turn up on Last.fm quite a lot.
