Public Enemy is all over my playlist....one of the most prolific rap groups ever assembled....much respect and love.....i flashing back to fight the power and get chills! 1989 the number! another summer! sound of the funky drummer! Very important record....wish these youngsters could understand..

"I'm me for a reason". Word. This took me back. I like how in the previous interview how it was explaining the interwining chain of events in technology and hardware which couple with certain muscian, acts and movement ushered in the new gen of Hip Hop. I remember being early on Portable CD that cost $250 back in '87. Having a Hitachi Boom box and then cassettes to CDs. Awesome. He really explained how the corporations were making moves yet wasn't catching the wave.

I was at those shows in Hammersmith London back in 87 with LL Cool J and Eric B and Rakim, Public Enemy smashed it! 👊🏾
