Hypocrisy Is the Greatest Luxury cover art

Spearheaded by Michael Franti following the disbandment of The Beatnigs, the group's sole studio album delivers a fiercely articulate, radical critique of early 90s sociopolitical issues. The dense, heavily industrial-influenced production perfectly complements Franti's baritone spoken-word delivery, tackling topics ranging from media manipulation and systemic racism to homophobia and environmental decay.
