Mark Stewart was the lead vocalist and revolutionary sloganeer behind the Pop Group, now cited as one of the most influential post-punk bands. In the 1980's and thru the 1990's he went on to form Mark Stewart and The Mafia releasing a range of heavily politicised, boundary-pushing albums fusing electronic, dub, twisted disco, and industrial strength hip-hop into a unique ground breaking sound. Curated by Mark Stewart, 'Kiss The Future' is a mixture of new material (with new collaborators such as The Bug, Sanjay T), classic material from the legendary Pop Group 'We Are All Prostitutes', 'We Are Time', 'She's Beyond Good And Evil', as well as Stewart's groundbreaking solo work from the 1980's to the present day with the legendary Sugarhill Records/Tommy Boy rhythm section (as The Mafia) along with producer Adrian Sherwood (On U Sound). With unlimited access to the vaults 'Kiss The Future' also includes rare and unreleased material. Soul Jazz. 2005.
