    1988 ...17years old.. .I played that record day in and day out on full blast in my room...my parents went nuts because of the teapot sound..Ha Ha Ha....
    That was by far the most progressive rap track of that particular time..no doubt.
    PE was literally a gamechanger for Hip Hop music in general. And Eric B and Rakim although their work had a totally different vibe.

    The song was 10 years ahead of its time.. One of the best sounding songs sonically in history..The first time the 808's was even thought like that..

    Summer . . . in the car . . . windows down . . . stopped in traffic . . . people at the bus stop who heard the boom and the screach sond coming from way back staring like the Martians had landed! Memories for life created by the PE! ;) :)

    "A Rebel Without A Pause" was actually an previously unreleased track from 1987 that was the 12 inch B-side from "You're Gonna Get Yours/Miuzi Weighs A Ton." That squealing noise is a horn that was sampled from The J.B.'s. Pure genius production from Bomb Squad's Hank Shocklee, Eric "Vietnam" Sadler and Carl Ryder AKA Chuck D.

    Just a quick lesson for you guys. Rebel With Out A Pause was a first, it was truly ground breaking. The screeching sound that you hear all the way through the record had never before been heard in musical form. Honestly, at the time when the record came out all you heard people talking about was that amazing rap record with the non stop screeching sound. As ground breaking as hip hop was by this point (1986) no one had ever considered that you could use a weird screeching sound in this way. Remember it's not just the fact that its a weird sound (hip hop was all about weird sounds) its a sound that is a consistent part of the BACK BEAT! so it runs the course of the whole song. It was inconceivable at that time that you could make a record much less a hit record with that sound effect AS THE BACK BEAT!!. So once Public enemy blow that idea out of the water, every one jumped on the band wagon.

    I was hooked on Public Enemy since Yo! Bum Rush The Show was released. My best friend and I were at Specs Music lookin for new jams to play in our base cars, I saw this to check out and he said "who is that" lol. PE had a message in every tune and album, thee most influential group of our time no doubt.

    According to the official PE book Don't rhyme for the sake of Riddlin' by Russel Myrie it was Terminator that did the cuts of Rebel but at the same time according to the same book (p.84) Johnny Juice was the scratcher that was more advanced. If you listen to the beginning it has some simple scratches when the song starts but the rock and roll dude after he says "Terminator X" are more advanced. This makes me believe that the rock and roll dude scratches are by Johnny Juice and not TX.
    This is an interview with Juice for those that are interested. ua-cam.com/video/P_mv8Lze8PI/v-deo.html&ab_channel=London

    This Album was so important, this is how The Nation of Islam, and Minster Farrakhan, was introduced to those of us born in the 60s we had not heard of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, until this knowledge was released , go listen Farrakhan is a prophet and I think ought to listen to,The Follower of Farrakhan, Word from the Honorable Elijah Muhammad know who you are to be black. Minster Ava, and Khalid may peace be with them are on this Album,

      @@gaffle-411 I feel you on that. Definitely iconic. Looking back on it now, I might be more inclined to agree with you...
      What other rap artist logos do you believe have stood the test of time? RUN DMC's logo definitely, especially due to their deal with adidas. EPMD's is strong as well. N.W.A's lettering also still reminds you of the era, especially if its written in silver on a black baseball cap...
