Bio: Maxwell Dixon, better known as Grand Puba, is best-known for fronting Brand Nubian for the group's first album -- and the excellent full-blown reunion album, 1998's Foundation -- but he actually made his commercial debut with the Masters of Ceremony, a group who released a 1988 album (Dynamite) on 4th & Broadway.
Puba went solo with 1992's Reel to Reel, which featured the excellent singles "360 Degrees (What Goes Around)" and "Check It Out" (with Mary J. Blige).
Never the most prolific rap artist, it took three years for a sophomore release (1995's 2000), and his third album (the lackluster Understand This) didn't come until 2001.

Maxwell Dixon, (born March 4, 1966) better known as Grand Puba is a rapper from New York.
Their album Dynamite (1988) was hailed by the critics, but probably due to lack of sales the group soon disbanded, and Puba emerged as the lead rapper of a new crew called Brand Nubian.
After their innovative and versatole debut album One For All (1990) - covering areas from reggae-influenced rap to new jack swing - Puba left the group and embarked on a solo career.

Grand Puba: Yeah, I mean, the first album was good — but you'll never be able to recapture that.
Grand Puba: I mean, no matter how hard the media makes you think something might happen again, it's hard to think something of that caliber can happen.

 Grand Puba
Based on how long it took to deliver this new record, it's quite likely Puba is counting on it to carry him through the end of the decade.
Puba carried those first two records on the inventiveness of his rhyme style: a little Slick Rick swagger, some Biz Markie pop culture referencing and tone deaf singing, and a lot of Puba's own distinctive whine and boast.
Also tried-and-true Puba, the tracks on 2000 favor a heavy bounce and melodic soul groove over the more raw and rhythmic funk backings of most rappers — which means there's more music and fatter hooks than usual.

 Grand Puba : Reel to Reel - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
In a sense, Grand Puba really never was a genuine member of Brand Nubian.
Likewise, based on this debut solo album, it's clear that Brand Nubian created precisely the right context in which Puba's self-reflexive braggadocio could flourish without wearing thin because Reel to Reel, as much fun as it is, has little in the way of substance.
Minus any counterweights who can "drop the science," Puba, like some sort of hip-hop Dolemite, proved to be interested mostly in self-puffery, partying, and playing the ladies.
