"Bad Character"

Yeah, check me out, check me out
Public enemy number one
Lord Quas up on the set, word bet
Bad chara...

Biography

Melvin Van Peebles' status as a pioneering African American filmmaker likely obscures the fact that he also busted barriers and blazed trails as one of the forebears of rap music. If there's anyone who can draw from a large pool of life experiences, it's Van Peebles, a supremely creative individual who can also list Air Force bombardier, cable car driver, postal worker, portrait painter, journalist, novelist, playwright, and actor in his resumé. Not only that, but he has lived in several locations throughout the U.S., Mexico, France, and Holland.
