Grand Puba

Maxwell Dixon, (born March 4, 1966) better known as Grand Puba is a rapper from New York. He debuted with the group Masters of Ceremony. 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. He became a member of the group again in 1998.
