I'd never heard of him before, but it was just awful. Worst thing I have ever seen live, no question about it. I am flabbergasted that he was on a bill with Les Claypool.

Sunday Bloody Sunday was the sole cover on the initial collection of 15 songs... The recent iTunes download and the upcoming CD release added the NIN remix Gunshots By Computer that Saul did for the NIN remixed CD... The Inevitable Rise is consistently creative and certainly worth a solid listen. Cheers!

I haven't seen the Nike advert, but List of Demands (followed by Black Stacey) are definitely the two best songs on that album. Amethyst Rockstar was far superior to the eponymous album.

As a long-time Saul fan, List of Demands is one of my LEAST favorite tracks on his eponymous album because it is too poppy and not in the vein of raw hip-hop/poetry work that he is so gifted and known for. Saul was crowned the Nuyorican Poet's Cafe Grand Slam Champion way back in 1996. Saul Williams’s roots are in spoken word poetry and hip-hop, not necessarily musical composition or songwriting.
