While praised by critics for its intelligent messages and cutting-edge sound that blended Industrial Dance elements with bombastic hip-hop, it was simply over the heads of most mainstream listeners caught up in the era's G-Funk explosion. Their heady explorations of race relations, homophobia, and shady politics were lost on kids captivated by tales of the chronic and low-rider '64s. In 1993, they collaborated with beat writer/junkie legend William S. Burroughs on <i>Spare Ass Annie and Other Tales</i>. Shortly thereafter, Franti left the group and started the more funk-inflected crew Spearhead. - Brolin WinningIndie Rap/Hip-Hopen720Mon, 30 Nov 2009 15:31:52 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1430&variant=artist-playlists&rws=%2Fthe-disposable-heroes-of-hiphoprisy%2Fplaylists.rss A duo comprising Michael Franti and Rono Tse, the Heroes hit the scene hard with their 1992 debut <i>Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury</i>.
