2. Michael Franti and SPEARHEAD!
I don't get it. even here on the DU, he gets no love. He is the most important artsit of our time, puts on a killer live show and writes songs that are superior to anything you hear. He is very passionate about things that matter, poverty, the war, environment etc... His music is very uplifting and gets people moving and thinking.

Only one artist has ever touched me the way that Spearhead touches me and that is Bob Marley.

4. Frank Black
AKA Black Francis

His output after the Pixies split up has been super duper, but doesn't get any attention.
