Michael Franti Splits With Activist Artist Management Following Allegations of Sexual Misconduct
#Variety #News #ActivistArtistManagement #MichaelFranti -
#Spearhead's #MichaelFranti played a concert last night at #SDSU as online rumblings grew about allegations from a female artist casting some unusually dark shadows over the positive vibes associated with ex- #SanDiego tourism and #SFGiants ad campaigns soundtrack artist.
Claiming she was a virgin groomed and sexually traumatized by a relationship with a decades older married singer, speculation led people to realize musician #VictoriaCanal was describing the outspoken former #Beatnigs and Disposable Heroes of #Hiphoprisy frontman. Soon after fellow musicians began dropping off Franti's upcoming curated #Soulshine at Sea cruise ship bookings🚢 .
Franti himself has addressed the issue today on his #Instagram page, ( albeit sans comments enabled) posting his own pained statement just hours ago, describing a past "romantic relationship" including an apology to his wife, but without naming Canal.
Franti still has nearly half of the dates on his current "Welcome To The Family" tour to finish including these shows
August 26, 2025: The Mountain Winery, Saratoga, CA
August 27, 2025: Britt Festival Pavilion, Jacksonville, OR
August 29, 2025: Reggae Rise Up Oregon, Redmond, OR
August 30, 2025: Marymoor Park, Redmond, WA
August 31, 2025: McMenamins Grand Lodge, Forest Grove, OR

September 11-14, 2025: Dates in Wilmington, Asheville, and Charleston, NC and SC
September 18, 2025: The St. Augustine Amphitheatre, St. Augustine, FL

#AlternateFridayMusic
September 15 2023
The prompt is “Summer”The Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy, “The Winter Of The Long Hot Summer” from the album "Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury," 1992
#MichaelFranti and Rono Tse of #TheBeatnigs continued their collaboration, founding #TheDisposableHeroesOfHiphoprisy, a more straighforwardly #HipHop group, dropping Beatnigs’ #punk edge but differentiating their sound from much of the #ConsciousRap of the day by keeping some of the #industrial sound as underpinning for the more prominent lyrics and beats, giving the tracks a dense, almost tactile feel.
The group and this album interpreted literally the aphorism that rappers reported the news of the street. This track concerns the #GulfWar of the #90s, criticizing US motives and motivation. The group released just this one album; Franti would go on to form #Spearhead.

"Exxon and on and on and on
The ministers of double speak
New meaning of clean they tried to teach us
They staged the phoney shampoo of the Valdez greases
Completely Jheri curled the beaches
Pipe bomb for the NAACP
And a hit on Salman Rushdie, the Berlin Wall comes down
And the U.S. cracks down on illegal aliens
Ban the freedom of choice for those wanting abortion
And enforce capitol punishment
Twenty four hour radio ban
For indecency determined by the F.U.C.C
Why are we so anesthetized to the lies?
Because we do it in our own lives
We believe all the things that we want to hear
But then we also love to criticize
[Hook]
Bail out the banks
Loan art to the churches
Satanic Reverses""Satanic reverses"

7-24-23 Nicole Sandler Show – Nice Democracy We Got Here with Thom Hartmann
View on ZencastrOf course, I'm paraphrasing the old threat. The next line would be "what a shame if something should happen to it..." And that's where we are today.
Perfect timing to have Thom Hartmann on the show to talk about his new book, THE HIDDEN HISTORY OF AMERICAN DEMOCRA

7-21-23 Nicole Sandler Show – Feel Good Friday with Michael Franti
View on ZencastrLast minute change of plans! My scheduled guest who was to talk about what happened to the radio and record industry had to reschedule. Usually that'd freak me out, but not today.
When he called to cancel, I was in the middle of taping an interview with Micha

"All the shit you given us is fertilizer
The seeds that we planted you can brutalize 'em
Tell the corporation you can never globalize it
Like peter tosh said "legalize it"
Girls and boys hear the bass and treble
Rumble in the speakers and it make you wanna rebel
Throw your hands up, take it to another level
And you can never, ever, ever make a deal with the devilYell fire!"

I've loved Michael Franti's Work from the beginning until now.
30+ years ago with this, we just need to swap "Television" with "Social Media".
