Music reviews of Autobiography Of Mistachuck

Music Review: Chuck D goes solo, hits a homer
Rating: 4 Stars

"Autobiography of Mistachuck" is first rate hip hop. Chuck still has his voice and he still has his poetry, but he brings it to a much funkier and more soulful musical style than was ever used by Public Enemy. It's a strong solo release, and it should have attracted more commerical success than it did. Check tracks 1, 3, 4, 5, 10 and 12. 1, 5 and 10 are great!

The hip hop scene is notoriously fickle. Figures of great talent rise and fall faster than in any other genre of music, disappearing of the radar screen to all but those who appreciate the old school. Gangster rap was still in full effect in the mid 90s, when this album was released. I think Chuck D acknowledges this plain fact of doing business in Track 1, with a sample from "Clockers." However, don't confuse the real thing with the LA gansta wannabes ... Chuck D's "Autobiography of Mistachuck" is the bomb!
