Chuck D Sets The Record Straight About Flavor Flav’s ‘Firing’ | People's Party Clip

In this People's Party exclusive, Chuck D -- of Public Enemy and Prophets of Rage -- opens up about Flavor Flav's "firing" from PE. The truth proves stranger than fiction, with Chuck explaining that he and Flav are “better than ever.” Forget the band breaking up over Chuck’s Bernie Sanders endorsement, they’ve actually got new music dropping -- including a single “Food as a Machine Gun.”
Finding out that Chuck and Flav have been in the lab gets a serious eyebrow raise from Kweli, who is clearly hyped to hear that one of his own personal heroes has a record dropping. “That’s great news,” Kweli says -- speaking for all the real hip-hop heads out there rooting for one of the genre’s greatest bands to keep making music.

No definitive answers. He admitted it's all a stunt for sales cause you cant fire flav. And he never addresses why he's so tight lipped about the historical truth of jews....

No the reason for the "dislikes" because both of these morons have sold out to the Democratic party or so-called liberals in general. They both have chose their White friends over their Black friends bottom line.

When he described how he said "that's why we called the album yo bum rush the show" i thought wow so they were like a "zappa" like rap group. Or like a "theater group" Are there any good books on PE?

That's my dude Chuck D. Big Up Everytime

[@HMZ-Letstalkaboutit]

P.E. has been by far my favorite hip hop group, unfortunately in the late 90's and beyond I believe that they became too preachy and didn't evolve with the times musically. Their content is on point but I believe they became less interested in drawing in the new generation creatively but continued to "force feed" their message to a generation that clearly doesn't respond to this method. "I think that to be successful they must build a rapport with the new generation and infiltrate!"

[@bigdaddyozone8574]

Chuck D !!!!

[@jamespboykin]

Chuck and Flav are playing chess... great move... when you got TMZ talking and introducing you to a younger generation... you accomplished your goal..

[@DannyGbmf]

I remember pulling up to the Palms in Vegas, we just checked into our rooms and we’re walking down the lobby to meet up with our ride up front than officer Rick Ross walks through with a million side line d!ck riders shooting a video...out of nowhere Talib walked by all of us and not one soul knew who he was! Like Chuck said when the General is in the room you salute, I recognized the Yankee fitted hat and immediately saluted! Thank you for your service to hip hop my G!

[@screamingiraffe]

Old but interesting video and interview. Generally, when I went to a PE concert, it was to see Flav, there was practically zero interest in Chuck D.

[@whenthehammerwastthomas1585]

Flavor ruined himself when he brought Bridget Wilson on stage that time. You could tell Chuck and Terminator were pissed.
