Public Enemy-Don't Believe The Hype

[HippieNiecey]

I am not into rap at all. I am just an old Hippie but hey this I have to admit is real rap. This is classic. Public Enemy was the first to do real rap. I will always like them. Great album. All the rest from there to this day? No this is the real deal.

[CapitoleTUBE]

gonn start from the beginning.

[ZoReKgRf]

5 Idiots coming from the new school

[nandotime3000]

Yeeeah! One of the sickest Hypemen.

[shootthepump]

Hip top....the best hip hop ever.

[keithcozz]

[razzyman71]

[Ornamexito]

[shazzaman1]

@Ornamexito than go back to listening to lady gaga

[shazzaman1]

[KanapkaDrobakha]

I'm sorry...I'm a huge fan of hip-hop but I just cannot get into this beat.....it hurts my ears..I swear....if he just had DJ Premier with him...I would listen..and listen good...

[josiahsixkiller]

@KanapkaDrobakha Most revolutionary hip hop sound ever, blew me away in 89 when I heard it the first time, unbelievably amazing...

[joeyo691]

[Yojimbomelbourne]

Fuckkkk yeah, feel that old school shit

[123loco1991]

Homer: Let me explain the situation in terms you'll understand.

You did it on the street, got your dad's permission, but your mom dropped a bomb so I flipped my position.

Marge: Don't argue with Marge, I know what's best. The only rap in this crib keeps sandwiches fresh. Fresh-fr-fresh, for mommie's baby boy!

Homer: Baby boy, baby boy, b-b-b-baby boy!

[davidWgruUP909]

[TheWheels777]

I miss The NBA on CBS, old Air Jordans, and P E!!!!

[DeathMetalB4Dishonor]

1988 was definitely the best year in Rap/Hip-Hop history. Slick Rick's The Great Advetnures... record, N.W.A's Straight Outta Compton and this relentless motherfucker of an album right here. Great.

[blueballsredhair]

@DeathMetalB4Dishonor NWA got nothing on PE

[trdigital]

Old School/Underground Forever

FUCK MAINSTREAM

[dave2806]

racist pigs , this is not music its just noise.

[mynameisnotalfredo]

@dave2806 Technically, it isn't music. But that doesn't prevent me from loving it all the same. It has harmony and rhythm, but lacks a distinct melody. And where's the problem with admitting that? I'm still here and and still loving this song.

[RE3V3R]

@mynameisnotalfredo How is it a "song" you're still loving if it ain't Music??

[Gukuthegreat]

Good Song!!!

[jazzy4266]

[GeneralGhost]

@TheScoore Danm right brotha. In the words of Chuck D " Keep Them Crime Rhymes on the Shelf".

[TheScoore]

@GeneralGhost You need to know, I'm German. And I'm on our Wikipedia page a lot of important information about this album added because it is such an awesome album ....

[ugagraffstoresd]

turn off that fuckin lame ass radio!!!

[GeneralGhost]

The lyrics are just plain masterful. This is what u get when educated men get together and voice there anger and opinions, sheer greatness.

[illmindmusik]

Indeed... :-)

[wendy1851]

[ECG01]

"im the epitomy of public enemy"<----classic

[MasterSteff94]

my gott is this old school ...

old ghetto time in compton etc or what?

i found this shit already always the best^^

not bad not bad

[illmindmusik]

"old ghetto time in compton etc or what?"

You're mixing up Public Enemy with N.W.A. The difference is rhetorical value vs. gangsta rap.

"...I'm not a hooligan, I rock the party.. and clear all the madness..."

[MegaLaidback]

I wonder if any of todays so-called rappers read the comments concerning old hip hop? The stuff they put out these days is sub par, no substance.

[GeneralGhost]

lol sub par please todays stuff couldnt touch PE.

[LennonMorrissey]

fuck yeah! This album, along with RUN-DMC's debut album are the greatest rap/hip hop albums ever recorded. Btw, I'm white...just to spite these racist fuckers out there. To hell with racial difference!

[neomixxx1]

@LennonMorrissey Hell yes.

[kingaikone]

[rockydabest]

[islespatrick]

FUCK PUSSY ASS WAYNE AND SOULJA FAG

[metallicadudeyahoo]

you go brother lil wayne sucks this is the shit

[gokartmaster123]

@islespatrick nahh its soulja fuck in the butt boyy...

[MrWhopper10]

@islespatrick If you really want them to stop crapping out new songs, don't mention them! A much more effective way to prove your point is to to ignore them, and let the public quietly let the likes of Soulja Boy and Lil Wayne fade away to extinction.

[aaronl22]

1989!! HUGE year in Hip-Hop

[kruemmelMonster96]

thats real hip hop !

[milakuss]

dats real hip hop...old skool style I think!

[RobotLips]

[poshknacker]

i reckon its ust been uploaded recently robotlips, i just know the world knows not to believe the hype.

[misfit1978]

[illmindmusik]

@RobotLips

They're all watching MTV and buying the things those products promote. :)

[TrueTalkTV]

@RobotLips Right here man! I dunno why this doesn't have more views, but it definitely SHOULD!

[22912129113]

@RobotLips not anymore brother!

[n4rr0x]

really good lyric. i dont like the thin beats of that era

[Amebixfan]

just found this classic on TAPE!!!!!! i love garage sales

[beyo2120]

"used abused without clues i rfefuse to blow a fuse"- you know how crazy that is?!

[morrispalmer71]

PUBLIC ENEMY IS LOUDER THAN A BOMB!!!!

[beyo2120]

this is the true hip hop i grew up with that i still live for to this day! "you chuck they must be on the pipe right? classic shit! 1988 the golden age will live on forever with this music

[englishjames007]

I'm a white guy who listened to them from 11-12 years old, and even then I knew they had a message to say, it's a shame they cashed in soo much.... and lost the message and meaning

[beyo2120]

yeah, by my observation they did that heavy metal version of "bring the noise" with anthrax and just kinda started falling off after that cuz if you listen to "musick n our mess age" their sound is just all over the place.

[englishjames007]

Can't really argue with that beyo...still great to listen too, after you haven't heard it in a while though...

[krazzyyo2]

@englishjames007 idiot

[englishjames007]

@krazzyyo2 no need for that was there really. I like the message and the tunes to be totally candid and honest. They did - like all groups- sell out for the dollar, so don't think I'm picking them out for special attention

[loopwholetube]

CONSIDER ME A NEWJACK.

[juvefan34]

this is the greatest era of rap ever there will ever b

[merlinmanson2]

I from Poland so i dont have all albums ;]

[merlinmanson2]

[merlinmanson2]

[j0em0f0]

This is actually their second album idiot

"Yo! Bum Rush the Show" is the first one

[ddrruummmmeerr]

shouldn't hate another PE listener, she/he means well.

[mmmx21]

haha, yall actually writing coherent messages with punctuation and shit for a rap song.

[sparda700]

Rap's dead nowadays.

[BdaddyKonk]

My 2nd greatest rapper after Rakim! Fuck lil wayne!!!

[idaltuguy]

Yep. Wayne ain't even worthy of cleaning Rakim or Chuck's toilet. Old Skool rap forever. Naw, make that old skool REAL rap forever. Today's shit is nothing but pop.

[chepe371]

theres nothing to learn from the new cats

except misogyny, and materialism

faith that youth will seek this out is all we can have.

long live the pioneers.

[idaltuguy]

So true. No real message anymore. Our fav's back in the day talked about money at times, sure, but they also addressed other issues. They considered their music an art. They worked hard on their rhyme styles and delivery. They wanted to stand apart. Today....no one cares. Music in general is all pop. It seems it's all gone by the way side.
