Believing Creates Lies


“Alex sets out to set the record straight and tell the truth. The truth is, there’s this whole other conversation, and that’s the way in which the sport and the big world of advertising participated in this. Isolating Lance is not the whole conversation. The number of people that participated in it and built that myth, whether knowing, sort of knowing, or not wanting to know, is a whole thing Alex talks about in the movie and is a really important conversation.”

"If Paul Mooney and Nina Simone had a baby, The Crack Emcee would be the result" - LA WEEKLY

The Crack Emcee
The Crack Emcee was born in Los Angeles. His mother had a thing with Jazz legend Charlie Mingus (producing a sister). Crack served in the Navy before settling into the Punk scenes of Los Angeles and San Francisco. He went on to join the Beatnigs (1988) Consolidated (1992) Broun Fellinis (1995) and then started his own band, Little White Radio (1998). The Crack Emcee has also been releasing a series of critically acclaimed solo mix tapes - starting with 1995's Newt Hates Me - that have solidified his reputation. This output morphed into his solo album, the anti-war Rap's Creation (2002) which was nominated for Album Of The Year (in, both, Rolling Stone and the Village Voice) and that year's list of Hip Hop's Best Anti-War Songs. Crack is listed (twice) as `an artist dedicated to integrity in Donnell Alexander's memoir, Ghetto Celebrity, and is featured on the CD, Just Payin' The Rent: The Amoeba Music Compilation, Vol. II.
