Editorial Reviews
Public Enemy's status as the most respected act in hip-hop history owes much to Chuck D's chops as an R&B vocalist. We usually don't think of rappers as vocalists, because so little melody is involved. A rapper, though, has to deal with tone, projection, and phrasing at least as much as a soul crooner. And few vocalists of any genre can match Chuck D's rich, rumbling baritone; his supremely confident authority; or his crisp, staccato articulation--all present on The Autobiography of Mistachuck, his first solo effort. "To all the cynics I fought," he raps, "my record speaks for itself." His long line of groundbreaking singles and albums indeed does, but at the age of 36, his voice seems bigger, calmer, and more self-assured than ever as he promises to "keep hitting nerve bombs." --Geoffrey Himes

Great album very underrated........2006-07-14
It came out when cassettes were still selling & it wasn't common to have a cd player in the car.
With that, most of this album's sales were via cassette.
By now, I'd be willing to bet that the cassettes that were purchased are all either broken or warped beyond use.
YOU NEED TO RE-RELEASE THIS ALBUM SO THAT ALL ORIGINAL CASSETTE OWNERS CAN BUY IT AGAIN... this album was & is great, I definitely would re-purchase it.
Amazon, please pressure this cd company to re-release this cd, then email all the people that review Public Enemy albums to let them know.

Favorite Tracks
TRACK 3 "Generation Wrekkked" - Hard Hitting, Amazing Lyrics
"...to all you Johhny come lately's who didn't recognize how clever and great some of these rhymes be, think quick, been flowing over your domes with mad vocabs and silly grabs before metaphors be passin over yo ass like taxi cabs..."
TRACK 8 "Underdog" - Another Hard Hitter
"...ashes to ashes, blunts to blunts, some of these g's ain't real...it appears I shift gears to the eyes of my peers, not another nitwit you can get wit...I'd rather be the underdog..."
TRACK 4 "Niggativity...Do I Dare Disturb the Universe?"-
Heaviest Track
"... getting you down like gravity...do I dare disturb the universe"
TRACK 12 "Paid"- Very Good, Interesting hidden track.
TRACK 5 "Free Big Willie" - Smooth Slower Blues,Very Nice
The other tracks are good but don't really stand out. If you like a lot of different styles of music, and expect a liitle more from your music, I would highly recommend this cd for you:)

Chuck D goes solo, hits a homer.......2002-05-03
"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!
