A great rap group that once were produced by the famous Bomb Squad.

The only artists of the "hip-hop generation" who actually took the time to write something social. The thinking man's rap. Controversial rappers who on their worst day is 5000 times better than anyone else that every tried to rhyme a couple of lines.

Public Enemy was the sign that hip-hop had exploded like a grenade. A rap group as abrasive, hardcore, and eloquent as a JFK speech, their music was one classic track after another: tense, multilayered, harmonically wild music. Chuck D declaims like a master preacher with foil Flavor Flav's voice darting around his. They've got the desperate energy of people fighting for their lives, and everything from their pumped-up rhetoric to the group's quasi-paramilitary organization to the sirens and sax squeals in nearly every track declares how urgent their mission is.

Along with Run DMC, rap minus the pretentious 'gangsta' schtick. Therefore, rap was it should be.

The first political rap group. In the early days worked with the Bomb Squad and also worked with them on 'Revolverlution'.

A crazy buncha nigs who know can string rhymes together better than anyone!
