by John BushMichael Franti released only one album as half of the Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy, but it was praised for his insightful raps and Public Enemy-influenced beats. After disappearing for two years, Franti resurfaced in 1994 with Spearhead, a band more rooted in 70s funk; their debut Home was followed in 1997 by Chocolate Supa Highway.
