    Can be argued that they're the most influential hip-hop group in history

    The greatest sound of all time. Total legends. I first saw them in 87. And yet - even now, see them play, and Chuck will still talk to you like a friend after the show. Absolute class.

    While growing up on Long Island. I had the opportunity to work with Spectrum when Chuck D. was down with them. At the time he called himself Chucky D. Flav wasn't there yet. But, my Dance crew had an opportunity to through a member of their crew to do some showcases with them way before Public Enemy. By 82 ,83 they were doing many shows around the neighborhood. Chuck used to rap in between their shows. I always loved his Voice. I was wondering if he was going to produce a record. Hank SHOCK Lee all of them was there Professor Griff was there too. Flav was not there. At the end of 86 I started hearing on WBAU Public Enemy Number 1. When they became successful. Didn't surprise me. Chuck struck me always before PE era as someone who was stable. I remember going to a Club on Strong Island where they used to run. Eddie Murphy walked in one night. He knew Chuck D. because he grew up with him on Roosevelt Long Island this was back in 83. There are people who are stellar way before the world catches up. Once Flav joined Chuck, he was conducive to the missing link. He amplified Chuck's oice to the next level. The rest is History.

      Flav and Chuck are family to me. Shamello Durant was my best friend. 510 family.I got to tour the world with PE and got to become a part of my favorite group who I got fired from my first job when I was 16 to go see. I got to be on the rock n roll hall of fame dvd 📀 with my brothers. It has been the best thing I’ve ever done in life. I love them and I’m thankful everyday for them.Brother Mike Griff Pop DJ Lord E Brother James Malik Gaye etc etc they let me live my dream.Best group ever and my love for everyone is unconditional. Move as a team.

      hi... when i bought their 2007 classic "how you sell soul....", it came with a 60min dvd. about halfway through, we see chuck & cube chatting. same room, cube with the same shirt. there's a knock on the door, it's KRS. he sees chuck & cube together, pauses, then says, "yes. yyeeeessss. YYEEEEEESSSSS", while slowly nodding & smiling. it was hilarious.

    According to an retrospective review of the song for AllMusic, John Bush said that the song was "arguably the production peak of the Bomb Squad and one of Chuck D.'s best rapping performances ever", and stated that "none of [Public Enemy's] tracks were more musically incendiary than 'Welcome to the Terrordome'. British journalist Garry Mulholland included the song in his book This Is Uncool: The 500 Greatest Singles Since Punk and Disco, describing the song's music as being "based on a boiling, undulating bluesy shudder that isn't even recognizable as a riff" and the lyrics as "the best and most complex slew of metaphors and similes that Chuck ever wrote".

    I remember being a young white dude hearing P.E.’s "Fear of a Black Planet" and thinking this was the soundtrack of the apocalypse! At the same time I couldn’t believe the textures of music layered over each other and the overall mood, insight and flow of the record. Those records took you on a journey from track to track. I can go on and on here but just know P.E. and the Bomb Squad set a bar that STILL hasn’t been equaled since!

    Funny around the 48 minute mark where they are talking about Flava Flav coming out to songs. I remember a concert in Dallas/Grand Prairie when they were there with Ice Cube and WC. Public Enemy was going off and people were thinking Flav wasn't there, but we were still rocking. They were doing Rebel Without A Pause and toward the middle of the song, he comes flying on stage off a speaker or something doing his dance/rapping and the fucking crowd goes CRAZY!!!! One of the best moments ever of any concert I've been to.

    What I love about P.E.is that they are far from the typical," Whate man bad" rap group and instead they are a, look in the mirror, community critical, thinking man's rap group. Some of the raps were tough for the community to accept but they all had some element of truth to them. Like they say you can't point a finger at someone else without 4 pointing back at you. P.E. one of the only groups to ask, " What are you doing for yourself?".

Have not had the time to read the 2025 project by the heritage foundation by I here its like 400 pages of there plans .God is taking 144000 with him i think he has picked 1 of each those 144000 down here that were made of love for We have master music and mixing not to mention the rap.we know the history of our ancestors and heritage they are about money we are about unity world wide .not to mention the dealer the killer and the dope dealers there a history of that too.
