Public Enemy is a group of African American hip-hop artists that greatly affected the politcal enviorment in the late 80's. They were the first group in America to add a political stance in their lyrics, and also resembling a noticable pro black opinion. Public Enemy was also the first hip-hop group to achieve international support. When their music hit the internet they spread miraculously. This famous group consisted of Chuck D(leader), Flavor Flav, Profressor Griff, DJ Lord, Terminator X, and Sister Souljah. Together this group of talented artists created a legacy of hip hop rappers. Public Enemy helped to create and define "Rap metal", as well as changing the view on today's American politics.

  1. There was a lot of good information in here. I think it would have been cool to include a few examples of their songs or albums and maybe link to a video. I also kinda wanna know what "Rap Metal" is now. This post was short but sweet and i think you fit alot about the group into it.
