Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos" is a song by the American hip hop group Public Enemy from their second album, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back. The song is built on a high-pitched piano sample from the Isaac Hayes song "Hyperbolicsyllabicseequedalymystic" from the album Hot Buttered Soul.
The vocals are done mostly by lead Public Enemy rapper Chuck D, with sidekick Flavor Flav appearing in between verses, seemingly speaking to Chuck over the phone. Flavor went to another room and did actually call the studio to achieve this effect

exactly. we have reached a point where TPTB have completely, ubiquitously mesmerized the population into selling themselves out for the material things which they push upon you; rather than pursuing that which really matters...

@FastWillaysWifey yeah funny how this brand of rap, that was pretty much the top of the heap at that time, went nearly 100% underground while gangster rap took over the spot light. I love the masterpiece that was The Chronic like any hip-hop fan but Dre and those guys were promoting a much less positive set of images to the youth and the world at large than Chuck and Kris did. That whole bit of rap recording history just reeks of something so to quote another one of PE's greats CANT TRUSS IT
