In-your-face humor serves up truth
Fans of television sketch comedy will recall a program from the early 1990s that featured a troupe of Latino artists who ignored the politically correct and toyed with stereotypes that other shows might not touch. "Culture Clash" hit before the "Hispanic explosion" and lasted for three seasons until John Leguizamo hit with his own show.
Incubus hugely successful -- only few know it
Over the course of five albums, the San Fernando, California quintet Incubus has transcended its roots in the nu-metal/rap-rock explosion of the late '90s to become one of the most melodic, trippy and evocative modern rock bands, as well as one of the most successful, though you're forgiven if you aren't familiar with it.
