Released in 1989 by Triple X Records, this album was one of Bo Diddley's last studio works. The title is a direct critique of the music industry and bureaucracy.
The record includes collaborations with younger musicians and updated versions of his classic songs. Diddley maintained his vibrant guitar sound and hypnotic rhythms, though with more polished production.
Breakin' Through the B.S. had little commercial impact but is remembered for its defiant attitude and as a testament to Diddley's artistic relevance in his later recording years.
