Grand Puba’s forthcoming album “The More Things Change” will hit stores this Spring. Grand Puba, the revered frontman of Brand Nubian, is a true hip-hop icon. His relevance to the culture dates back to his involvement as a founding member of the group Masters of Ceremony. Many credit Puba with being one of the first lyricists to bridge the gap between upbeat, socio-political and conscious narratives in urban music. His influence can be seen in the expansion of the Native Tongues movement (De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest) to rawer groups like Dead Prez and Black Star as well as RZA & GZA of Wu-Tang Clan. In addition to his success with Brand Nubian, Puba is also a decorated solo artist in his own right with classic hit singles such as “360 Degrees (What Goes Around)” and “I Like It (I Wanna Be Where You Are).” Puba is adding onto his already robust legacy with The More Things Change, his first album since 2009’s Retroactive, which was also released via Babygrande. “I have always felt that I am both an MC and messenger for the people.
