About BusdriverBusdriver is one of the most consistently creative emcees in underground hip-hop. He focuses on creating word collages out of pop cultural signposts. To that end, his style harks back both to early 20th century Dada as well as hip-hop's earlier years, when the experimentalism of such acts as Afrika Bambaaata and Mantronix was viewed (by enlightened critics) as the apex of post-modern art. But to be fair, over time, Busdriver's albums have increasingly become more freewheeling and less tied to their lofty conceptual framework.Sam Chennault.
