As former front man for Public Enemy, the most politically charged hip-hop group of the `90s, Chuck D famously remarked, "Rap music is CNN for black people." Over the years, competing ambitions from the commercial rap industry took some of the urgency out of P.E.'s potent reportage, and later records were met with a far more muted critical and commercial response. Chuck D's debut solo album, 1996's THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF MISTACHUCK, loses none of the fiery invective of his best lyrics for P.E., but tones down some of the Bomb Squad's rapid-fire aural assaults in favor of a `70s-influenced soul and R&B vibe. Railing against the media, record labels, and sell-out rap artists, AUTOBIOGRAPHY takes essential aspects of P.E.'s patchy MUSE SICK-N-HOUR MESS AGE (1994), and wraps up Chuck's insightful polemic within a groove-friendly package.
