NEVER!
💯👍💯👌💯✌💯👍💯👌💯✌💯👍💯👌💯✌
troy evans well there IS, they’re just shut down by ......... (wait for it) .........THE POWERS THAT BE🤣✊🏽
Never.
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
If only Black people had listened to Malcolm X, things would be so different now.
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.
Wow man that was a pretty empowering story my father is Big Mama Thornton's nephew which makes me her great-nephew and she wrote you ain't nothing like a hound dog and I have my father listen to some Ice-T wants and he thought it was phenomenal so I understand exactly what you're saying when you spoke to Chuck I bet you that touched his heart keep spreading this information and love to your students I'm so proud of you it takes a nation of millions to hold us people back and I don't mean black people I mean people of consciousness
The sounds from my youth ..... and still on heavy rotation today 31 years later 🙏🏼
Rebel Without a Pause still gives me goosebumps.
Me toooooo!!!!!!!!!😳😳😳
The world needs more men like Chuck.
God yes we do !
Both
Indeed!
Chuck is a straight sucka
RED DOG you a straight sucka homie. I’m 100% you wouldn’t say that to his face. Use your “real name” why doncha. You’re obviously a straight up “keyboard warrior.” Little boys can talk shit from the comfort of their moms’ basement, like you buahahaha
One of the best rap groups of all time period.
The
Exactly.
The best
Hell yea
One of?
Still have my attention until this day. The reason I'm conscious now and know myself worth.
PE changed hip hop forever
I still remember in 88' seeing Night of the Living Baseheads video for the first time, it blew my mind! I grew up in a multi cultural suburban neighborhood in CA and had no idea that all the things they were rapping about was going on. PE was definitely the first group to wake up the people of the world.
My favorite rap group since 1987.
Chuck D...super educated...ultra articulated...
Huge fan of PE and the most obscure comic character...Black Panther...
I was literally screaming inside in the first few scenes of the Marvel Black Panther movie...there were posters of Public Enemy in the background...huge nod, respect and love to hip hops greatest...
Man I brought every PE album the day they dropped. I thought I was a S1W.
Yup I will never forget 4-10-90 foabp dropped n went platinum in its first week .
@@willholmes1690 Never been so hyped and excited for a new record as that day.....Never will be again. The crazy thing is that it was even better than I ever imagined!
No wonder my sister likes this...hey, they're the ones who should receive the Nobel Prize!
True indeed
One of the greatest rap groups ever.
one of ?
NWA & Public Enemy are both #1 to me.
@@intelizWild PE will always king because of their longevity, that's why the 90's was the best era
Music groups to me, they have really smart lyrics and the music is like the hardcore punk of rap (like how hardcore punk is fast and boom like a fist).
I'm a white as a snowflake goth girl but I LOVE Public Enemy and everything they stand for. 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.
violatress maybe so but 25 years from now it will be like “public what?”
@@optimisticfuture6808 No it won't. PE will go on forever.
They toured with Anthrax as well in the 90's...
@@optimisticfuture6808 and dats da sad part cuz I embrace muzik from 40, 50, 60+ yrs ago!!!
Eric Patterson they’re now in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
Public Enemy changed my life
These ppl were the Last Poets of the modern era!!!!!!!
There is no "were" ...they still making new stuff!
@@concreteheadentertainment Okay thanks
Never forget the first time I discovered PE on cassette in the late 80’s..incredible. From then on every time I saw the name Shocklee on the vinyl I knew it was going to sound awesome.
Public Enemy...The Most Important Hip Hop Group Of all Time...." Timeless "
one of the most important groups in music history period.
PE transcended Hip hop. props to you, timeless indeed.
Thats the truth.
YOU GOT THAT RIGHT!!!
NWA
A bold, yet let’s face it, fair comment.
Public enemy was so dope about their albums .we need another album.
P.E IN THE HOUSE!! .. Iconic group .. will always remember and love the music and message within .. mad love and respect to Public Enemy from New Zealand✌
I've seen this documentary so many times..had to watch My Hero's again. The One and Only - Will Never Be Another - Thank God For - Public Enemy - Love Peace & Respect.
chuck d is a great leader and person
fresh fest 1 when p.e. came on it was a revolution i loved being a teen in 1989
Saw them at the Fresh Fest in the D 313.
Fresh Fest Baltimore B more 89
Fresh fest New Haven,CT 1987 blew my mind
Best and most important rap/hip hop group in musical history!!!!
As a white, British, teenager I learned so much from PE and KRS one back in the 80s.
As a 47 year old man now I am truly thankful for my education
I'm 49 y.o. from East Germany and agree.
Right on to the both of you guys✊🏾
Europe, i learned a lot by listening to PE. They made me look up things that I wouldn't have otherwise.
Damn...I was at that London concert?!! I’m so old...But I will never forget it🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿✊🏿
When I first heard REBEL WITHOUT A PAUSE...It entertained, scared, and educated me at the same time! I will never forget that day.
I enjoyed the hell outta that!! Chuck D was always a real azz brutha to me. And Griff?? Yeah brutha cold!!
$impliBe@utiful I think Chuck is the best MC of all time
He's up there. One of a kind, fo' sho'.
Chuck d should in top 5 rappers forever
FACTS
Both when it comes to the rap-voice, and the lyrics
As a white boy growing up listening to this and still do to this day.........i still think these guys are 1 of the greatest and most influential rap groups ever...................
THAT'S WHAT MUCH RESPECT HOPE U AND YOUR FAMILY DOING WELL GOD BLESS
Listening to PE now as an adult sounds so much better, now I understand more!
Only on BBC... What a great documentary.
Majestic Sound Happens. Happens. Goodness. Bye
Jesus, Black steel in the hour of chaos makes the hairs stand up on my arms every time I hear it. Awesome lyrics and love the way the piano riff sounds sort of out of key but isn’t.
That is probably my favorite PE production.
No Equal!!
Love love love public enemy
love love public enemy and the reason why I'm not from the generation but this is my culture even as an older woman secondly my nickname was Angela Davis in that was for a reason cuz I took care of my community most people think that the Black Panthers were recent snow there about protecting the community and I mean that as I got older protect everybody of all colors so we're not racist people we care about our culture we care about people all people but right now what I called you're going through we have to stick together and that's all colors by just black tougher than me I'll always love you I will always love you strong strong brother
I still listen to that joint to this day
LOVE THESE MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!! .. took 'freedom of speech' to it's absolute limits.. helped educate millions of people via music.. peace to the Gods.. 1
Simon Forrest Gotta power that be!
Prof. Griff is the man!! He rocks the truth...rock on professor.🎤👍
yeah. i would have to say that griff should have stayed in the group just as flavor flav stayed in the beginning. "welcome to the terrordome" was greatest no-apology apology i'd ever heard. i saw these guys twice and met chuck d.. it's easy to forget someone meant that much to you then.
I love those fuckers,there is no MC like Chuck D.
Forgot to mention the fact that they have the greatest band logo EVER.
Together with the Wu Tang Clan
TRUTH!! Designed by CHUCK D!!!!
They're louder than a bomb. Thanks for posting.
They WOKE ME UP and ROCKED PARTY at the same TIME!Long Live PUBLIC ENEMY!
Really smart lyrics, about important things
The first thing I ever believed in was Public Enemy. Changed my life.
"God has come down from heaven, to rock the mic", one of the best analogies ever...
One of the best rap-writers, and voice
I love public enemy..
I called off of work , and listened to It Takes a Nation of Millions for 17 straight hours....
Saw them in Brixton London. Me and about 6 guys where white. We got looks but once I was shouting the words, we were all brothers.
@6:14 Oh shit !! Scott Ian's analogy of Black Bolt and Chuck D is so on point!
Why is Chuck D never mention when they talk about greatest rappers he have the strongest voice that if fo sure.
Great Doc. PE are legends that prove Hip Hop greatness does not play out. They also prove that chaos used effectively can yield enlightenment.
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!
The power of Public Enemy was not to be underestimated,trust me White America feared this group when they spoke about reality of America divided.
No. White America knows how deeply blacks hate us and of their war on our race. When the red light turns green.. America is only divided because it is ling past time for some people to go.
ATITKD and why do they hate you? Ever thought about that Mr. White?
And trust me, I was one of those “white” peeps who had the guts to go see them...
Facts. They tried really hard to villianize them, for sure.
Prometheus 2019 Yo homie, Rick Rubin was a Jewish dude. I’m pretty sure he didn’t “define” himself by his ethnicity. I’m “mixed” yo, so step da FUCK OFF...if you don’t know about the “one drop” rule, than you don’t know shit. How dare you come at me all jagged and shit? If you’re not intelligent enough to actually do a “deep read” of the comments, than you wouldn’t make such ignorant remarks. Fight the Power idiot...you probably thought Malcolm X was “Malcolm the tenth.” You’re a joke yo
The GOAT LOVE PE STILL TILL THIS DAY.
As long as there will be power-hungry bastards PE will be relevant.
i was a kid when Public Enemy #1 came out... best era ever
One of my favorite groups of all times from day one they thought everyone who wanted to learn about self knowledge is power and boy they really thought a whole generation lol had my stopwatch and my malcolm x shirt with my beads also my Walkman full blast till I blew my head phones man thanks for sharing this one
A group ahead of their time!
They are needed today!
1thousand UPvotes!!!!
Loved the Group growing up! Best group EVER! 👊🏾💯
When I first heard My Uzi Weighs A Ton ...
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.
No it never will because the powers that be need to keep the poor uneducated that's the only way they can stay in control. That's why mindless music is in the forefront.
PE and KRS sure, ATCQ has some good music but not as much. ATCQ is probably too soft for me, PE is more aggressive (just compare them).
Harare Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 we would wait for friends who had relatives in USA who would record MTV Base and BET and send the tapes over. What a time to be alive!
Rebel Without a Pause sold me the first time I heard it. Classic is an extreme understatement!!!!
Legendary.....thanks for uploading this.....that Nation's of Millions album.....wow...classic and timeless.......
Tar heels 215 Agreed
Nations and Fear of
public enemy was the first group to bust down the door for conscious and militant rap
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.
I don't remember any horrible rappers back then that was the fresh days people hype themselves up but Flav and Chuck were and are super MCs Flav is multi talented more than just a side kick or hype man
There was so much hip hop that I just looked for the coolest cover. Seen Yo Bum Rush The Show and that was it for me. Favorite hip hop group ever since. Bought all their albums.Even recently donated to Bernie Sanders to get the Public Enemy poster.
Public Enemy educated me to people like Malcolm X, Elijah Muhammad, Louis Farrakhan, Marcus Garvy, Nat Turner etc. I am forever grateful for them. Their music shaped and inspired my own music career. great documentary
They made me read about the NoI, Malcolm X, looking up the autobiography of MLK, and other things. To me they were always about more than the music.
Thanks for this video! Hip Hop needs this info right now!
Cool Breeze love these bands...BA BOOM
More now than ever, times may change, some things don't!!!! 💯✊👌✌
EXACTLY....💯💯
I wish this document was selling at public stores right now
Griff is relentless. Gotta appreciate his dedication.
WE need another Public Enemy... a aggressive sound with a message, not rapping about bling, booze and bitches...
Immortal Technique and viper records have kind of filled that niche.
mrchaotiq IT is a great MC but I'd prefer someone who wasn't a truther.
All he has said is he doesn't believe the official version.
Run the Jewels. Perfect mix of brag rap but also rapping about politics and how shit is fucked up in the world.
Outkast and Goodiemob
So militant..
They are a living legend. They blew me away at the age of 11 and are one of the few hip hop bands that at 43 still make me swing. Especially since I stopped taking drugs. They have a groove, creativity and an attitude that is unrivaled and has shaped me.
Public Enemy No.1✊🏼
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.
I Understood the entire recording process for The Bomb Squad, thanks for that knocking shit. Fuckin' Classic forever. Respect
Before Public Enemy I listened to Rap, after Public Enemy, I "Respected" it........J.Cooper
Wow . I understand exactly where you're coming from. I couldn't of said it better myself.
Public Enemy has the 2 most important and best rap albums of all-time! (Don't care about your opinion)
Fear of and Nations? If so I agree
I remember when I heard bum rush the show, I was changed by Public Enemy and then when the next album came the album after that I have every single last cassette down to Chuck's solo they call me mister Chuck there will never be another hip hop group like those guys ever again cuz they help change the world Point Blank. It's not what the government can destroy it's not what the media can't change but is there music in the people that will make Public Enemy last forever!
ON POINT
My sister's dad took me and my Mom to see Public Enemy at the Budweiser fest at the Omni 90' or 91' and Flavor cussed so much in the mic that I thought that there were going to start a RIOT in that place. It was radical beyond anything that I'd EVER seen but the show was SLAMMING. I'm glad that they got inducted into the rock n roll hall of fame and they needed to be heard especially in America.
The S1W'S was real real mac-10's and martial artist
Ive never seen this documentary before. Thanks for uploading. I Am A HUGE Public Enemy Fan since Back in the Days when I had to play their Music on my Walk Man because my Parents didnt approve of the profanity
As a huge fan of PE, I think I can say that I don't think PE would have been the same without Flava Flav. He helped them not be so serious that it wasn't fun at all. X Clan had Professor X.
Tom Brokaw @ 35:54...made me LMAO!
"Now, you may never have heard of some of these stars...but your kids have"!
one of the best damn groups ever in the entirety of recorded music.
Gotta love them all. PE NUMBER ONE!
ICE T was the only RAPPER WHO Stood UP What GRIFF Said ....
What?
Yup
Deezeone ICE T is a shitty rapper, though! He’s got no skills whatsoever. His only excuse is that he started out in the very beginning of rap when it was still in its infancy. If he came out today he wouldn’t sell shit.
@@pacovl46 true, fake gangster/actor
Ice T was a fire back in the day. 6 in da morning...fire.
Chief thank you. Semper Fidelis
I Think DMC said it all (: PE is one of the greatest musical entities in music history period (: They Are The Absolute Real Deal in Politicle Hip Hop Rap Ever (: Also The Sampling inovations are the greatest caliborations of beats riffs and melodies and harmonies and just a perfect assembley of rythms of perfect musical sounds (: And Chucks raps were the iceing on the cake (: and Flavor Flav the cherry on top (: As far as hip hop rap goes it doesnt get any better than that (: PE # 1. (:
I like Run-DMC too, but PE is better musically and lyrically.
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.
PE is my favourite group.
One of the greatest hip hop groups- ever!!!
Facts
Who do you think is better?
Music groups ever
Chuck D raps like no one else. So clear, so smooth. so powerful.
P.E gets me pumped in the morning when i first get up Chuck D top 5 all time
Not only the young black community getting lessons in history, politics, etc, I learned so much listening to PE as a 10, 11 yo when their stuff got released. I'm a white Australian guy and I used to look shit up in dictionary, or ask my dad, hey what is chuck talking about when he uses these phrases, or what event and year did this happen? I liked PE because their sound and Chuck's voice was just addictive. Going back armed with knowledge, I understood their songs and it was awesome
PEace, my dude. The song is "Yo, BUMRUSH THE SHOW" from the 1987 album "Yo Bumrush The Show". Its still one of my fav albums.
Well, that barely made any sense b/c of my phone and.can't edit it, so take it fwiw.
I was too young to be listening to their music but when I would be at my babysitter's house, she watched music videos and all I remembered seeing was the guy with the huge clock around his neck and all I could think was that he was interesting and he's probably never late for anything. Flaverrr FLAAAAAV!! I bet they're glad they kept Flav! Chuck seems like such a cool and down to earth kinda guy.
HIP HOP INFLUENCER. ♥️💪🏽
This might sound corny but I wanted Chuck D to attend my college graduation. I wanted to be smart like him
nothing wrong with that
Doesn't sound corny. And I totally get it.
Facts
Fear of a Black Planet...... HANDS DOWN THEIR BEST ALBUM.....
Nation of Millions is their number one to me with Fear being the second
PE in full effect.
