Michael Franti & Spearhead Return To Roots On New Album With Sly & Robbie

I dig Michael Franti and I LOVE Spearhead, but my interest in his work had started to wane in recent years. For starters, I'm wide awake,angry and aware of what's going on in the world, so Yell Fire! is preaching to the converted. Plus, I liked their reggae sounds of yesteryear and wasn't so into the rock stylings they've adopted. Well, Franti must have noticed this shift in his fanbase, coz...

And yes - the reggae is back in sublime effect:Michael Franti & Spearhead 'All I Want Is You':Pure niceness.Directed by...

HHT: Michael Franti
over 2 years ago

One of my favorite artists: Michael Franti. I got into him when he dropped The Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy, and I've followed him ever since. He's true to himself, and he's true to his message, which was heavily inflenced by Gil Scott-Heron at the beginning of his career. This is him with his band, Spearhead, at Coachella:From 2001's Stay Human: Rock the NationDisposable Heroes' first singl...

Now I can't stop bopping about to get the mix done before I hit vacationland....enjoy

John McCain - let me introduce you to Michael Franti and Spearhead
about 1 year ago

Just a few months ago, I was having a discussion with my 18 year old daughter about music.. and I asked her if she ever listened to music with a message - you know, songs like "Ohio" and "For What It's Worth". I managed to build into her an appreciation for music of past generations.. but lately she's consumed with Hip Hop and R&B - most of which is somewhat devoid of any sort of socially red...
