Public Enemy
Public Enemy are an American hip-hop group formed in Long Island, New York, best known for their politically charged lyrics and revolutionary sound. With landmark tracks like “Fight the Power” and “Don’t Believe the Hype,” they brought militant energy and sharp social commentary to rap in the late 1980s. Blending dense, sample-heavy production from the Bomb Squad with Chuck D’s commanding voice and Flavor Flav’s chaotic charisma, Public Enemy redefined hip-hop as a force for activism and cultural change, leaving an indelible mark on music and politics alike.
