FIRST TIME HEARING Anthrax, Public Enemy - Bring Tha Noize (Official Music Video) (REACTION!)

[@craven1927]

The white dude rapping is Scott Ian, one of the guitar players for Anthrax. Before they did this collaboration Anthrax did their own (goofy) rap/metal song called "I'm The Man." They were from NY where a lot of early rap acts were coming up. Even though they were a metal band they still appreciated the rap scene and supported them.

[@Joemama55122]

Anthrax are all the metal musicians theyre one of the most famous thrash metal bands along with metallica megadeth and slayer

[@arcky508]

I rocked this as a kid! 🤘 What's messed up is that we were more united in the 80's than we are now... to my recollection as a kid. We loved all music and when they combined!... we'd wild out! Feed Love! Starve hate. 🤘

[@chriscavanaugh100]

I think the average person is more connected to every race, sexuality or whatever than eve before. I grew up in the 80's and in some ways jealous of the youth now. The difference is through social media the extreme people from both sides have the biggest megaphone ever and they use it. embrace your neighbor no matter who or what they are.

[@stankthetank204]

Exactly, growing up in the 80’s nothing like it. My daughter who is 22 is jealous lol

[@pmondo420]

Me too! This song combined both worlds (rap and metal). I wore my cassette tape of this song out back then....LOVE this song! Then along came the pinnacle of this new genre.... Rage Against the Machine!

[@MishaSims]

facts! we just built different lol

[@rogerbakheim1195]

50 year old metalhead from Norway here, we did dig som hip hop back in the days, PE was one of them, before this happened, also NWA. We liked music with meaning, music wich sounded like they meant it, whatever genre.

[@socalnitro]

The white guy is Scott. He’s a Legend in everything

[@theDavidChannel1]

This was a groundbreaking collaboration at the time because both groups were respected in their own circles, and both circles were very different. So for them to come together for this blew a lot of peoples minds. This was really only the second major rock/rap collab between two groups. The first one being Aerosmith and Run-DMC

[@deed8915]

Facts! Blew my mind.

[@OneThousandHomoDJs]

Yeah, Aerosmith and Run DMC should be the first chapter in the rap/rock fusion story of this era, then comes this collaboration, and then you cap it off with the Judgment Night soundtrack, which was basically this type of song done semi-successfully by some bands that were good, and some that were not. "Just Another Victim" is one of the good tracks. Both bands were huge at the time.

[@Cinerary]

Yeah but white ppl are better

[@McKavian]

@@OneThousandHomoDJs Mudhoney and Sir Mix-A-Lot was fantastic, too.

[@BadgerBJJ]

Not so different circles. Both are from NYC. I saw PE at a punk club in NJ before they were famous, and NYC used to do punk-hip hop nights.

[@duncansolloway2497]

ANTHRAX & PUBLIC ENEMY did a tour together w/ PRIMUS as the opener-they would perfrom this as the encore

[@TjM1978]

Dont forget Body Count Ice Ts band

[@renlessard]

Chuck D is hands down my favourite Rapper of all time. You should be listening to more Public Enemy

[@videoslve]

They were poineer of rap rock with Faith No More of the mid to late 2000's. Anthrax was one of top metal bands of the 80s to 90s. And they still going.

[@Elop74]

House of Pain & Helmet, De La Soul & Teenage Fanclub, Run D.M.C. & Living Colour, Cypress Hill & Sonic Youth, Onyx & Biohazard, Boo Yaa Tribe & Faith no More, Ice T & Slayer, Sir Mix a Lot & Mudhoney

[@jesseelwell9107]

Judgement Night is one of the sickest soundtracks,Loud Rocks kicks a lot of ass too

[@aaronscollectinganddetecti3018]

I dont know if you ever watched the show Married with Children but there was an episode with Anthrax on it. One of my favorite shows growing up.

[@PatBlackwell-z3i]

Late 80's them kids were kicking the CORPORATE MUSIC INDUSTRY. INDEPENDENT BLOOMED AND THE ARTIST WERE BRING THE NOISE 🤙🤘✌️

[@kebonhawk1081]

From your reaction... You have many MANY rabbit holes to delve into. I hope you do. One will lead to another, and another and never stop. Music is the soundtrack of our lives. Listen to as much as you can while you can.

[@cortecz]

This was like the Judgement Night soundtrack. There were multiple hip-hop/metal collaborations on it. The title track by Biohazard and Onyx was my fave track. Just Another Victim and Disorder were bangers too. You should look into it.

[@kristoferbatdorf2873]

Fuck yeah judgement night soundtrack was awesome

[@ElementsUnknown]

“They had rap and like…metal” This is the first and the best, it does not get better than this, true b-boy rap and true thrash metal in the same track. The song slaps even today.

[@DarkAngel1985Mike]

Anthrax is one of the big four of thrash metal bands along with Metallica,Megadeth and Slayer, this collaboration is one of the tracks that helped give birth to Nu Metal

[@joshuahessel4915]

anthrax is a metal band, one of the biggest back then. This was the rap gods and the metal gods jamming together

[@LoriCollis]

Always been a Public Enemy fan. Welcome To The Terrordome is great also!!

[@kaylemain2006]

Yep, we had plenty of metal and rap and hiphop collabs back then. A lot of 90s NU Metal was very influenced by those collabs.

[@greywoolf6405]

Anthrax is "a serious infectious disease caused by gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria known as Bacillus anthracis," or in this case an 80's thrash metal band. There was a number of Rap/Rock in the mid to late 80's, artists just coming together to make music and tear down boundaries. Rap is considered a branch of Rock, thus inclusion in the Rock and Roll hall of fame. Check out Run DMC Walk this Way for another Rap/Rock treat.

[@benniemccormick9286]

Anthrax - I'm the Man

[@MrHartApart]

Always remember folks; the real reason why racism still exists and is taught in school so heavily? So, we all don't look up at who's really fucking us over. Works like a charm too!

[@ICTS22]

Also there was band called Urban Dance Squad who had a one hit wonder song from the 90's called "A Deeper Shade of Soul." It hit the US top 40 in 1990/1991 but the rest of their music was rap thrash metal like Anthrax and Public Enemy.

[@jas137]

Good call. I still listen to this album every once in a while and daily use the phrase "smooth like mayonnaise" from them!

[@roberttatic]

Great band. I managed to catch them live opening for Living Color...

[@jcdthevoice3896]

Anthrax is on the Mt Rushmore. One of the "Big Four" of Thrash Metal from back in the day. Chuck and PE sit high on the mountain as well. The rabbit hole is real and deep here. Run DMC and Aerosmith started the path. So much music to get into.

[@jamanga59]

He was raised in the poor side of town all of his childhood. He didnt get away from poverty until he made it with his music.

[@persephonebonner5733]

"Life begins at the edge of your comfort zone." ~ Neale Donald Walsch It is great to push your boundaries, expand your mind and explore other genres!

[@alisonfinley9377]

I grew up loving rap and metal. When this came out it was a revelation. It was hope in a song.

[@ICTS22]

One of the many hip hop thrash metal collaborations of the 80's and 90's. You should check out "Just Another Victim" by House of Pain and Helmet from the Judgement Night soundtrack.

[@3AM_eternal]

Scott Ian is the guitar player for Anthrax-Chuck D of Enemy asked if thought he could "rap"-Ian just said its like singing without notes...He told an important part of history right there-thats was all it took and the rest is history.

[@matthewshea1443]

First show I've ever seen was Public Enemy 1988 14 years old. To this day Chuck D still has along with Cube greatest voices in hip hop

[@slantera]

The bald headed guy, his name is Scott Ian (Rosenfeld), and he's a founding member of the band Anthrax. I believe Ian is a fan of rap music (Run DMC/Public Enemy). If you enjoyed this collaboration, check out the Judgment Night soundtrack and/or the band Biohazard. They're a hardcore band that mixes rap and metal.

[@stevenhayes859]

I am old enough to remember when this tune came out back in the day. When I first heard it I was blown away. The song made me hype AF

[@MigdaliaTomalinas-os2nz]

I could see how this music excites the new generation just like Elvis excited our generation.

[@jamesdavisjr6937]

There have been a ton of rap/metal/rock bands check out rage against the machine ,Linkin Park and limp bizkit also the song slam by onyx w/biohazard was kind of like this anthrax pe Mashup

[@arronknox2884]

anthrax is one of the big 4 of thrash metal! they also covered a beastie boys song looking down the barrel of a gun.

[@maureenwagg5305]

Anthrax is metal so it's a metal/rap fusion of epic-ness. Pretty awesome.

[@jennodine]

You’re all up in my 8th grade music tonight. I’m going off memory so I’m not positive but Anthrax may have been the first metal band ever to experiment with rap. They have a full on metal rap hybrid song “I’m the Man”. Then Aerosmith did “Walk This Way” with Run DMC. Vanilla Ice actually dropped a rap called “Boom” in the 90s with Bloodhound Gang under his real name, Rob Van Winkle, that never got any play but it’s one of my top 10 fave songs of all time and it still bangs. Highly recommend that one. Best line: “Sneakin up like celery, yeah I’m stalkin”

[@h.williams5808]

You have to listening to both versions, nephew... both are tight..

[@rexayala226]

That song i will cal in one word JOY

[@sammcbride2149]

When you dip back into the past of American music you gotta be ready for anything.😉

[@HawkeyeFan00]

In 1994, I was a 17 yr old white kid from a suburb in Nebraska. I was a rock fan and was starting to like metal but thought rap sucked. Didn’t understand it. This song was the first song that made me was to hear more rap. Never heard anything like it as it hadn’t existed yet. Did the same for many rap fans to try metal. A major crossover and united fans to just be fans of music and not divides. Glad you get to experience for the first time and look forward to the major unifying crossover your generation creates.

[@JasonSum1979]

damn i feel so old when people say they don’t know Public Enemy that to me is truly crazy (They were the anti rap band that broke mainstream) My older brother loved them they were huge with merchandise like t-shirts, hats, VHS tapes (Chuck D is truly the voice of the voiceless! brilliant mind (Yo! Bum Rush the Show, It Takes s Nation of Millions to Hold us Back” & “Fear of a Black Planet” are 3 of the most influential/essential albums of the past 35yrs

[@cityhonors1]

I loved Arosmith and Run DMC!

[@videoslve]

Another song similar to this is rap group called Onyx and metal band Biohazard did called "Slam."

[@RickyShively]

1991 I loved this, this should show society that black, white or whatever race we can all get along with each other everyone is different it would be a boring world if we all was the same .. peace ✌️

[@Donttalkbacktoome]

This was revolutionary

[@shaneboegeman8638]

There was a movie in the 80's called Judgment Night. The whole soundtrack was metal/rap combos. This was the one track that turned into a hit, but there are other great songs on it.

[@blktauna]

I could listen to Chuck D read the phone book on repeat.

[@MsTtilly]

[@jeremyh929]

You should hear the song Disorder with Ice T and Slayer about the LA riots in 92. (Ice T is a huge metal fan and has his own metal band called Body count)

[@sidneyvandykeii3169]

The Story goes like this: 1.Anthrax, the Heavy Metal band loved the local (LA) rap scene. 2. Anthrax asked Public Enemy if they could do this cover song. 3. Public Enemy says "Who the fuck is Anthrax"? He'll No you can't cover our songs. 4.Anthrax sent them the Demo tape and Public Enemy Loved it soooo much. 5. They loved it soooo much they said you 100% can't cover our song....unless we record this song TOGETHER!!! 6.This, made Anthrax even happier than covering the song by themselves. 7. The rest is history.

[@GhostDrummer]

Every time I hear this song, I can’t help but imagine what it would have been like if Axl had pulled off the collab he wanted to do with GnR and NWA… I wasn’t ready for the Veggie Tales comment! 😂😂😂

[@henrybeadlejr4640]

The Beastie Boys sampled AC ⚡️DC 's Back in Black in 1984 with RockHard . A couple years before Licensed To Ill came out

[@RussianNightmare]

His favorite word is "yo" surprised he knows that word....

[@deed8915]

This is a remix. Check out the original that Public Enemy released. Then you'll get it. I wasn't into rock but the rap/rock collabs from this time were fiiiiiiiire. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@brianmonroe1673]

Thanks for this took me back I still know this song word for word and it's actually a remix from the original and I loved the cross over more no cap

[@aaronscollectinganddetecti3018]

Before this there was Run-Dmc and Aerosmith..Walk This Way

[@mikegames3464]

Look up the soundtrack to the movie Judgement Night. The whole album is rap groups with metal bands

[@ryanlogan7632]

Some can argue that this is the first nu metal song

[@jas137]

Beastie Boys are compulsory. Dig in. House of Pain's "Jump around" is iconic. A "newer" amazing white rap group: Die Antwoord. On the flipside is a super influential black rock / punk group from late 70s and early 80s called Bad Brains (listen to "Sailing On" and THEN look at a picture of the band- will blow your mind. Ha.) They aren't super famous or well known, but they inspired a generation of 80s and 90s alt / punk rockers- the Beastie Boys even thank them (among others) in their 2012 rock n roll hall of fame acceptance speech.

[@normancooper596]

That's CHUCK MF'N D!!!!

[@bigernkingpin]

This was just one collab on the Judgement Night album. Personal highlight was Faith No More/Boo-ya Tribes 'Another Body Murdered'

[@weasel73]

If you enjoyed this look up the soundtrack to a movie called "Judgement Night", every song is a hip hop group and a metal group combined, some great songs on it.

Attack of the killer b’s …. Startin up a posse is a good one

[@mattdiggens4228]

There are some mad anthrax tracks . Check out startin up a posse. And check more PE , fight the power , is a good staring point .

[@ener11454]

I think what was so cool about this is that Public Enemy sort of took the lead on the song. This could have just been some gimmick where the rap was second fiddle since rap was still finding its way in the industry. Instead this showcased the rap part and the metal was the supporting role. This didn't seem to be exploiting the up and coming new thing, it was showcasing it.

[@draconous342]

the dude on the left is chuck D

[@victorramsey5575]

Yeah man... Metal and Rap unite to eventually form Nu Metal: Lincoln Park, Korn, System Of A Down, etc.. The 80s and early 90s were awesome. You should check out a song Cult Of Personality by Living Colour. It will also blow your mind! Vernon Reid, the guitar player, is still iconic today!!

[@ChrisSlaughter-pz6zr]

The white guy rapping plays guitar for Anthrax.

[@RocketJr.]

Crazy collab with both from the same record label? idk for sure 😸 Def Jam was founded by Rick Rubin (a wise white guy who loves rock and rap) and Russell Simmons (the brother of DMC from Run, from Run DMC). I think some of first groups and rappers they signed and got really famous are Run DMC, Beastie Boys, Public Enemy and LL Cool J.

[@Elop74]

crossover ❤

If you want more rock and rap, check out Run DMC and Aerosmith with Walk This Way or Onyx and Biohazard with Slam.

You should check out Rapture by Blondie.

[@edog6770]

Anthrax is considered "Thrash" Metal. Reason why they did this collab was because new york metal-heads were starting to listen to Public Enemy. IIRC, this is the first metal/rap fusion song. IMO, this peaked with the "Judgement Night" soundtrack. Give it a listen kid. You'll appreciate it

[@66.6FMRadio]

Walk This Way - RUN DMC and Aerosmith was the first rap/rock crossover. 1985-86 I believe?

[@edog6770]

@PinkySchultz666 yes, that was before public enemy and anthrax! Forgot about Run

[@chickenbeek]

@@66.6FMRadio Actually it was pretty much Blondie - Rapture 1980. She was very into it in the earliest days of rap/ or hip hop. And incorporated it into Rapture, which was very popular and pretty much a seminal and legendary cultural crossover song over a half decade prior to anything mentioned here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnmmlYZthJdnbsk I'd also add ven before that Mick Jagger doing pretty much a rap break on the Rolling Stones song Miss You in 1978 - pretty much one of the first "rock and roll" songs that changed my entire perspective as i lost my sht to it as an 8 year old kid. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaa1qYuIqqatY6s ..and wow crazy, that sht has 82 million views, and it's just the song, no video.
