      way more relevant, as time goes on and little changes, truth songs such as these speak louder and louder. in the 80s and 90s PE was seen a militant and extreme...... now it seems like one of the lone voices talking about the same stuff African Americans have been saying for 400 years.

    P.E is even more relevant in today's divisive political/social climate. Hip Hop's most important group ever. Flavor Flav the world's greatest hype-man and Chuck D the most underrated lyricist in hip hop. Along with Terminator X and the Bomb Squad these hip hop Generals Public praise is long overdue. Can't wait for the un-Hollywood movie. ...just sayin 😁😁😁

    You have no idea how high my respect is for this revolutionary hiphop group! They started a resistance against racism and going against the media. Every record they made contained a message and they combined it with dangerous rhymes and beats, but also with funky and dope beats. Bum rush the show, It takes a nation and fear of a black planet are without a doubt the most important and best hiphop albums of all time! When i’m turning 30 i’m going to set a tattoo of P.E on my chest to pay my highest respect to them. P.E will never die!
