[DontHaveTheKey]

The Golden Age of hip hop.

[Timmyfunk1]

Album wise, this was easily rap music's greatest moment.

[missjenn35]

fine ass Chuck D

[3811iberis]

Lol, Flav cracks me up when he tells Sherelle Winters 'you ain't gon' free um', an you ain't gon' go see um', you know what I'm sayin', lol, Flav is comical, smh...

[3811iberis]

Epic 80's hip hop song and video, by an epic hip hop group, there's no other way to look at it...

[climacalido]

Back when Chuck D was thin

[FabiParas]

Gotta love PE They copyright infringe themselves all the way to stardom but, their message couldn't be more loud and clear.

[MrRasheed7]

Yo them S1Ws was real.. I went to a PE concert back in the day and some guy tried to get on the stage and a S1W round house kicked his ass right off the stage outta view.. lol . Homie just did a pinwheel flip outta there. It was hilarious.

[Dactuck]

BASS! How low can you go? Ask a Wall Street Base Head. Sniffin' more coke and layin' off more workers before 9AM, than most people do everyday. Ha!

[ezko12]

Why the hell is niki and lil wayne on the related videoos !! Thats an outrage thos fools shouldnt be there !

[mrantonsioux]

"I put this together to rock th e bells" Saw them in concert 2011....just pure genius

[subjunker]

I wonder if chuck and flava synchronised their clocks

[blakdog90]

i just saw a Meek Mill and Rick Ross video,........ i feel stupid for watchin' it now.

Public Enemy brought me back to reality.

[chicagoakland]

2:55 DJ Red Alert. Genius cameo, genius video.

[BrownMumba]

[belleleewest2012]

@BrownMumba UM NO SHE'S STILL PUTTING OUT MUSIC AND SEEMS TO BE DOING GOOD. SHE CAME TO MY SCHOOL AND SPOKE LAST YEAR AND SHE LOOKED GREAT. SHE SEEMED TO STILL HAVE IT TOGETHER. SHE HAS A TWITTER IF YOU WANT TO KEEP UP WITH HER.

[jhnevans751]

they brought out the illest hiphop book where they did interviews

with Public Enemy, and the rest of the classic hiphop groups and MCs

to try to preserve all the great techniques of true hiphop, books named--

::HOW -TO- RAP::

[heckler171]

we gotta get the drugs out of our hoods and kill anyone who brings them in both the white gangsters and the dumb blacks that carry out their wishes.

[bboychance]

Bez Vs. Flavor Flav - THey both do fuckall in their bands and dance like crckheads!

[SuperDaLINKwent]

[poplords]

This is a classic.

[FrenziedMadness25]

[poplords]

@FrenziedMadness25 Your right the late 80's made Hip Hop Music

[BigieJay]

[popadapill]

Takes me back to being 13 and hanging out in a hip hop record shop,I brought this and then recorded Ice T Power for free in the shop...good times.

[rahim4411]

love this group, and the S1W'S with martial art skills and militant just set a new bar of how African descent people in America should focus. The realistic knowledgeable style of Chuck D there will never be anyone like him or that group they stand alone in their own corner! love PE!

[andyhibbert]

@nedsammy where? im sure that word isnt in the lyrics

[icebergo6]

Bad news folks: today's disparaging state of society is no worse than when this MASTERPIECE came out. Why else would Chuck D have to spit w/such venom umpteen years ago? Why else would KRS say, "Rap is like a setup, it's like a game. A lot of suckas w/colorful names...it's all just w' w' WAK!"

[JoshRA]

They really should not have had that trumpet sample playing thoughout the non-song part of the video. It gets really irritating after a while.

[NICSMOM1]

[clarntoon]

[NapalmChristAR]

Sherrelle Winters doesn't need a news report to see "the effects drugs are having on our society". All she needs to do is look to her right.

[ralfspringer]

[wwf8499]

[djt2012]

Best Hip Hop video ever!!

[magich8ball]

Didn't Flav get busted for crack a few later?

[winggoddess]

the music labeled hip hop sounds the same as the music labeled rap. just call it all one word and stop inventing new words for the same old stuff.

[bornwisedistruction]

@winggoddess well actually being HipHop i can tell you that Hiphop is the Movement and lifestyle Rap is the Musical art produced by Hip hopers. hope this clears up the confusion set in place by media. And no real hip hop has a distinct sound and has actual meaning and lasting content.

[joanofarcenciel]

@bornwisedistruction okay, i see what you're saying. but if that's true, i don't know why all the rappers just can't call their music rap. if hiphop is a lifestyle not a music genre, then no music should be called hip hop. and exactly what kind of lifestyle is hiphop? ghetto culture? cuz i'm sure that rappers get rich once they're established/famous, and then they wouldn't be living in the ghetto anymore... so then their 'hiphop' music would no longer be of the hiphop lifestyle....

[bornwisedistruction]

@joanofarcenciel Ok (Rap), to talk with a certain cadence like spoken word poetry you wouldn't call it singing its just talking and it sounds slick, when you talk to some one to get them to under stand what you are saying its called rapping to them and this is where the term comes from as for the Hip Hop life style it consists of Breaking Graffiti DJing and Emceeing respect for your self and others as well as your personal style of dress. Not who you hang with or how you act.

[joanofarcenciel]

@bornwisedistruction i gotcha. but that still doesn't explain why "hip hop" is considered a music genre. i hear people saying "this is rap," and then another person says, "no, this is hip hop." and they're talking about a song, not a person's clothes or personality or opinions or lifestyle. i guess they're just using the term "hip hop" incorrectly? and so are the rappers who claim that their music is hip hop?

[bornwisedistruction]

@joanofarcenciel It's just conflicting views from people who don't clearly have a understanding of these things and mislabel one as the other you cant actually break the two there inseparable but the easy way is to think of it this way "I am Hip Hop" and i encompass all these things so its the good with the bad the bad being commercial garbage that leaves you with nothing and doesn't teach any worth while lesson you hear it feeling as if you took nothing away from it which is labled as Rap

[bornwisedistruction]

@joanofarcenciel And then you have the Ideal style that tries to enlighten uplift that serves as a warning, It's closer to the essence of Hip Hop and that's why groups and artists such as P.E. MOSDEF, Tailib Kweli, KRSONE, A Tribe Called Quest, Leaders of the New School & Big Daddy Kane get labeled as Hip Hop because its true to the roots as "HIp means to be smart or intelligent Hop is to jump or move and together its Hip Hop an intelligent movement" To quote the Teacher KRSONE.

[CognitiveKungFu]

@bornwisedistruction Nice!!!

[joanofarcenciel]

@bornwisedistruction but if hip hop only means to dance around with music that is intelligent, a person/singer/band could do that with rock music too, so would that make any song of any genre fall under "hip hop" just because it's intelligent and danceable?

[LilNaruto9tails]

@bornwisedistruction  And no real hip hop has a distinct sound and has actual meaning and lasting content. OR And no, real hip hop has a distinct sound and has actual meaning and lasting content? Which one?

[mrbigrzl]

the term hip hop did exist in the 70's. Come on youngsters, rap is what we do, Hip Hop is what we live!! Krs-One

[Redmon05]

Rap perfected.

[laobaixing2012]

Does anyone know the preacher speaking at the beginning of the video?

[bornwisedistruction]

@laobaixing2012 That is our dear brother Dr. Khallid Abdul Muhammad who is no longer with us peace be upon him.

[laobaixing2012]

Thank you for the answer! Blessings!

[asianhotness1]

[charlesdeanglenn]

I THINK the only reason this video has not HIT THE BIGTIME!! is cause everyone out there has either SNIFED A LINE OR SMOKED A ROCK get past your selves and support this video that WARNED EVERYONE OF THE FUTURE OF DEMORAILIZING YOU!! AND YOUR SOCIETY??

[DatDamKeyid]

"My man daddio once said to me... He knew a brotha that stayed all day in his Jeep and that night he went to sleep and in the morning all he had were sneakers on his feet...." Best rhyme ever in Hip Hop.

[cheapcape]

Night of the livin VEVOheads. In some ways worse than baseheads.

[chj2]

@YoungOldSchoolRapper Hey Young Brotha, I'm PROUD of you. I'm a 37-year old Hip Hop head, and this is one of my CLASSIC all-time favorites. And you know what? PE is STILL dropping gems like this. Have you checked out, "How Do You Sell Soul To A Soulless People That Sold Their Soul?". That's one of PE's most recent albums in the last few years, as well as, "Beats, Rhymes, and Places" and "Rebirth of a Nation" produced by cold-ass Black Panther of Rap, Paris. Check out daveyd dot com, too. Peace.

[M0thaphucka]

whoa a vevo video has under 100,000 views!?!?!?

[RandomUsername010]

One basehead disliked this.

[JATIYANA]

i love how it says (dope version) lol

[Makkah521]

My Mother made helped me write to this beat with the same flow as Chuck-D but I wrote about "The Hobbit" for a book project in 6th grade. Now I'm 18 @ Howard University working my life to revolve around writing and music and all that good shit. But I just wanna Thank my Mother for giving me good skills and will power.

[chj2]

@Makkah521 Dude, I would LOVE to hear your rhyme about "The Hobbit" to the instrumental of NOTLB. I write poetry and rhymes - what sparked it was this: in 11th grade, I was assigned to rewrite the Canterbury Tales, and did so with flying colors. I wish I still had my version lying around somewhere: I may do it again.
