Public Enemy - Prophets Of Rage Documentary

A classic DOCUMENTARY I would love the WORLD to see. Its a battle trying to get it to stay anywhere because of the COPYRIGHTS and LICENSES. Enjoy it while you can. Peace to PE! www.publicenemy.com/

    The most powerful HIP HOP group of all time, hands down!!! In my generation, this group unquestionably challenged all mainstream ideals and provided a sense of pride in the Black community that has left a lasting impact on my life to this very day... Not knowing who Malcolm X was as a youth until reaching the age of 21 made me weep with sadness as well as disdain for a system and society too blind to realize it's value and importance in instilling significance of pride and harmony that could cause those that are choosing the WRONG PATH of Life to possibly choose the RIGHT one... How long will we allow our minds to receive nonsense, and promote the ultimate destruction of us all, if we don't change our thoughts towards one another. I love ALL Mankind, and my heart is heavy that we haven't figured out that this is the only way to prevent our extinction. PUBLIC ENEMY shall always be the voice of social injustices, and I will be a fan and followers until I am not longer on this Earth ONE

    29:25 Griff said it. Not just young black dudes..When I was In HIgh School, I saw an interview where Chuck D said he didn’t “need” alcohol. I never started drinking and to this day haven’t. Because someone I admired said something bold like that, I modeled myself after him in that aspect. No substances of any kind. Also, I became a teacher, and I project my voice in class like Chuck, intentionally. His bravery goes beyond the black community. He’s just a hell of a guy. Saw him speak at a bookstore once. Wow. What a presence. I also produce rock music like the Bomb Squad. Big fan. I told Chuck this and he dug it.

Fantastic lyrics, music and presence, if only more people listened to that messege our world would be a better place. Had the honour of seeing them live and it was one of the best gigs I've ever seen. BTW, PE actually toured with one of the seminal gothic rock groups, The Sisters Of Mercy back in the early 90s. Great music really knows no genre boundaries.

    I miss that era and style of hip hop. PE, KRS 1,Ultra Magnetic MCs, Tribe Called Quest. There really will never be an era like that again, sonically, verbally, social commentary, educational and political. My 98 oldsmobile, PE#1, Black Steel and the hour of Chaos.

    I think that Run-DMC and Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five said some social things in some songs. Public Enemy (as far as I know) were the first to talk about politics at that level. Both the music and the message made me like the group, it wasn't soft.

    One of the most important hip hop groups of all time. I listened to PE music for at least a year straight when I found them. Every. Day. Chuck D educated me and a lot of folks in a very important part of our history that NONE of us were being educated on in our our BS schools. This empowered so many of my friends and being a punk rocker at the time, I felt the same bond with PE and their message and music that I did with my punk rock. Question everything and unite, we're bigger than the powers that be. Remember that. All my love to PE, thank you for doing what you do and for having the courage to speak the truth for all to hear!

    I grew up in the suburbs raised by a mom who grew up in the country in an all white area. My mom bought me Fear of a Black Planet when I was 12 because that's what I wanted for my birthday. She was never racist but was just uneducated about the struggles of people of color in this country. I credit my open minded mother and her willingness to not censor what her son wanted to listen to for helping form my core beliefs when it comes to where I want to live, what I believe about human rights, and how I vote. My public schooling wasn't teaching me about the history of the struggles of people of color. I credit the music I listened to, especially PE, for showing me there's more out there than what I was taught in school. I thank god this group exists.

    It was correct what they said. It was African American alright. I remember moving out to Hempstead Long Island back the late seventies. Grew up with Blacks and Whites. I witness the group on the arise. The only one I didn't see at the time was Flava Flav. Spectrum City was the Mobile DJ act that Chuck was a part of. He was great from day one. When Chuck used to do his rhymes by the parties. I was always impressed. Incredible. I did some shows with them with my dance act at the time on Long Island. So I was proud of them when they broke through with Public Enemy. Flava brought the light side of the concept.

    This documentary was extremely important. Public Enemy was an extremely important force in hop music and what they added to the culture of hip hop changed (primarily) black youth but I'm happy to say it wasn't confined to black youth. Their message through their music affected the continents of the world. I'm thankful to have been a high school student when they first came on the scene and I can remember CLEARLY when their 1st single dropped. You'd literally have to be a kid back then who followed hip hop(rap music) before PE to understand the dynamic of how these guys changed the game. I'm a living witness and it was fun, spearheading and edgy to be old enough back then. A lotta shit was happening in NYC ....in the USA ...and around the world. I put my older children on to PE who are in their 20's but I got one more who's almost 17. Time to put him up on game. PE in full effect!!!
