The Red Hot Chili Peppers are a funk/alternative rock band that was formed in 1983 in Los Angeles, California. With their unique blend of genres and energetic performances, they have become one of the most influential bands in modern music.The current members of the band include Anthony Kiedis on lead vocals and additional guitar, Michael "Flea" Balzary on bass, trumpet, piano, and backing vocals, Chad Smith on drums and percussion, and John Frusciante on lead guitar, keyboards, and backing vocals. Frusciante has had multiple stints with the band from 1988 to 1992, 1998 to 2009, and again since 2019.

Warner is a renowned music publishing company and a division of the Warner Music Group. With its origins dating back to 1811, when Chappell & Company was founded as a music publishing company and instrument shop in London's Bond Street, Warner/Chappell has grown to become one of the largest music publishers in the industry.

Established in 1987 after Warner Communications acquired Chappell & Co., Warner/Chappell boasts an impressive catalog of over one million songs and represents more than 65,000 talented songwriters. Having operated under the name Warner/Chappell Music for over three decades, the company recently rebranded itself as *Warner Chappell Music* in May 2019, unveiling a fresh new logo.

With various name variations such as *Warner/Chappell*, *Warner-Chappell*, *Warner Chapell*, and *Warner Chappel*, this label continues to make significant contributions to the music industry by nurturing and promoting exceptional talent worldwide.

With valuable assistance from producer Rick Rubin, the Peppers find just the right blend of punk, funk, and hip-hop. Even with a running time of 74 minutes, this 1991 breakthrough has continuity and cohesion both within and across the 17 cuts. 

Riding Flea's surging bass, Anthony Kiedis delivers his explicit lyrics with a rapper's flair, extolling the virtues (and outlining the dangers) of sex and drugs. Plaintive ballads such as "Breaking the Girl", "I Could Have Lied", and the hit "Under the Bridge" give the album depth and provide contrast to the raw energy of "Mellowship Slinky in B Major", "Funky Monks", and "Give It Away". Rubin masterfully fuses John Frusciante's raunchy guitar with the irresistible grooves.
