Vlad u MUST make OG Chuck D a regular. His wisdom and knowledge of what hip hop is, will need to be documented to educate the current generations and the many to come after that.

[@mikehutchison7565]

Versatile, i agree. Chuck, is like a hip-hop encyclopedia!!!

[@shapeshifta247]

@Spread Love I have to respectfully disagree. There aren't too many living legends like him who can not only give a true account to certain artists, situations, etc. But can shed light on the science behind many hip hop icons we grown to love today. Hip hop history is rich beyond the obvious (drugs, beef, and money). He won't be here forever and documentation is necessary from one who embodies what hip hop is. Not the rapping art form but the whole culture.

Chuck... you are still the King in my opinion. Everyone knew and loved Flav, including me, but the real PE fans like me and my friends knew that Chuck definitely was and always have been the man in PE. I remember reading your PE album covers and you would always try to mention as many hip hop artists as you could think of on the back of the cover, regardless of what part of the country these artists were from. I thought that was very impressive. You were all about unity from day one. And this was the beginning of the beef rap era with LL and Moe D. You have always believed in respecting everyone, which is one of the many reasons why I have so much respect for you til this very day. As far as I am concerned... Chuck.. you are still the King.

[@kevinscott59]

@MrB0gart There's no way to scientifically quantify the influence of rap groups.There's a gang of hip hop crews and individuals that influenced and shaped hip hop either directly or indirectly.Indeed PE and the bomb squad in particular influenced the hard-edged,outspoken content of nwa,though they were totally different groups. But sense we're talking about influences Flash and the Furious 5 (and particularly Melle Mel)are the true pioneers of the kind of social realism in hip hop that would be the foundations for gangster rap,trap,drill etc. And I agree.What's old was often far superior.(Though not always.) And that certainly can be said for one legendary rap crew more than any other - the Herculoids. This sound system/crew contained the first hip hop dj,emcees(coke la rock,timmy tim,clark kent,labrew,sweet 'n' sour etc),female solo emcee(pebblee poo) and two of the earliest b-boys(the nigga twins). In other words they established the very template that every crew you mentioned built entire careers off of. If that's not good enough for you then cats like Schoolly D,Too Short and Funkmaster Wizard Wiz were cursing,talking about pimping,street gangs,street violence and utilizing shock to provoke years before nwa ever did. Furthermore Rakim influenced today's crop of emcees 100-times more than Quest ever has. (Indeed Kendrick and Nikki literally sound nothing even remotely close to Quest.) Not to mention every artist today and throughout rap history that raps fast,utilizes metaphors and multisyllable words are forever indebted to the Treacherous Three. Yeah,money.It's funny you mention wikipedia,considering that every single artist you've mentioned reads like the millennial list of hip hop greats. Now go sit yo' corporate ass down.

In my opinion on LL’s music “Walking With A Panther”, is his best and most slept on album in his career. It had banger after banger, I didn’t like “Two Different Worlds”, but the rest of the album...mad dope.

Seen Too Short in concert. It was 2013 Columbus Ohio a club called skullys and my friends were performing and of course Short Dog was the final act. Too Short got on stage and said "Columbus Ohio, I haven't been here since 87-88 so Y all know what that means??"...The crowd goes Whaaat? Too Short said "That means I might be some of y'alls daddy"....Everybody laughed and was kinda like hey man lol.

[@notsogood9449]

Damn... I don't think I've ever heard someone say "Art is short for Artificial"... hmmm. Let think about that for a second.

[@capitalhomes6028]

That caught my attention as well. As a flat statement, not sure I'm buying that. Within the context he's speaking on it, maybe. Sharp dude though.

[@courtneywatts7696]

Indeed. Lends a completely different perspective on the word "Art".

Pe schooled youngsters and still do today PE protected everyone All djs all rappers all dancers and all hype men and hype women They cared about everyone NWA and the posse independent album and that was an awesome album. Yo bum rush the show awesome album 2 Cube had group problems and cube first tried to find sam who produced 3rd base album And he was tryin to find him and then he ended up 👆 being with pe and the bomb 💣 squad and big daddy kane even helped cube 2. That song burn Hollywood burn 🔥 was awesome Cube became an associated member of pe. So pe took cube under there wing and teached him a lot of things and cube brought his own crew and they helped out 2 The beginning of lench mob as a group and bodyguards and beginning of yo yo and the beginning of lench mob records ⏺

[@Roman.Bolanski]

Maybe unpopular opinion, but Ice Cube progressed when he left nwa. Before amerikkkas most, he was just a rapper.

"Did you keep the syrup?" These are the real questions that need to be asked. Man look, Chuck D is a great interview.

We need a Public Enemy biopic, along with the 2 Live Crew biopic as well. 2 legendary groups that doesn’t get the recognition they deserve. Like Public Enemy influenced Ice Cube and NWA.
