  Buckshot LeFonque - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Buckshot LeFonque was a musical group project of Branford Marsalis.
Two albums were released, Buckshot LeFonque (1994) (which featured mostly DJ Premier produced tracks) and the follow up Music Evolution (1997) (which featured mostly Frank McComb on the vocals).
The name Buckshot LeFonque was a pseudonym of the jazz saxophonist Julian "Cannonball" Adderley.

 On a TV Break With Branford Marsalis
Branford/ Buckshot was passing through Europe on his way to Capetown doing promo and showcases.

 Branford Marsalis
With a hiatus from his duties as music director on The Tonight Show, Branford is set to take Buckshot LeFonque on the road for an extensive U.S. spring tour.
Though some have tried to place BUCKSHOT LEFONQUE somewhere between Jazz and Hip Hop, Marsalis himself rejects their efforts.
Among the sterling guest artists joining Marsalis and DJ Premier is America's poet laureate Maya Angelou who reads her classic poem "I Know What the Caged Bird Sings" on a track of the same name.

 Popular Music and Jazz - April 1997
His strategy is eclectic in the extreme, as rap vocals lead to smooth ballads with strings, and crunching contemporary rhythms coexist with backward glances at James Brown funk and samba.
Yet the variety of styles virtually guarantees inconsistency; and at present Branford's ballads (sung by Frank McComb) are less effective than the snap he is able to extract from a drum program.
Buckshot LeFonque sounds best when stretching out instrumentally on "James Brown (Part I and II)" (with guest David Sanborn on alto) or addressing such issues as the jazz-rap continuum ("Music Evolution") and the Million Man March ("Black Monday").

This fanciful moniker is actually a resurrection of a pseudonym Cannonball Adderley used in the 1950s when moonlighting on a record label other than his own.
Nevertheless, Marsalis was so enthused by his new group that he left his high-profile job as bandleader of the Tonight Show in part so that he could tour with Buckshot LeFonque in 1994-1995.
The 1997 edition of Buckshot, as heard on Music Evolution, contains a nucleus of Marsalis (saxophones, keyboard, and drum programming), DJ Apollo ("wheels o' steel"), Frank McComb (vocals, keyboards), Carl Burnett (guitar), Russell Gunn (trumpet), Reginald Veal (bass), Rocky Bryant (drums), and 50 Styles: the Unknown Soldier (rap vocals).

 1997 CD of The Year - 'Music Evolution' - Buckshot LeFonque aka Branford Marsailas, 1997 CD of The Year - 'Music ...
- Branford talking about the "mainstream community’s" refusal to understand the "hip hop" grooves of "Buckshot" and the "hip hop" community’s refusal to understand the jazz grooves of the first Buckshot" album.
I remember when he was asked why he was leaving the show, Branford stated that he was leaving to "pursue music in a way that would allow him to connect with the younger generation".
All because he wanted to give something back and maybe teach a few people a little bit about the history of Black Music and in doing so, perhaps bridge the terrible generation gap which now exists within the Black community.

Despite the occasional lapse into aimless fusion, Buckshot LeFonque's second album, Music Evolution, is a stronger, more confident record than their eponymous debut, capturing Branford Marsalis and his band -- including cameos by David Sanborn, Guru, and Laurence Fishburne -- finding a vibrant, exciting common ground between hard bop and hip-hop.

 AudioRevolution.com CD Review of Buchshot LeFonque
Buckshot LeFonque's second record (a Branford Marsalis project) Music Evolution is a radical musical trip that shoots you though a musical experience that pushes the limits of standard Jazz, RandB, Rap, Rock and Hip Hop.
Most notable is the title cut "Musical Evolution" which couples a tight hip hop beat, a catchy melody and lyrics that explore the roots of rap in 50's Jazz.
