Controversy and confrontation are synonymous with Public Enemy’s incendiary brand of hip-hop. Devoid of gangsta clichés and pop-rap treacle, the group’s full-frontal lyrical and aural assault is designed to challenge social and sonic complacency. Public Enemy’s core line-up—iconic rapper, writer, and producer Chuck D, and rappers Flavor Flav and Professor Griff—always infuses its music with charged messages about demolishing social inequity, racism, and government corruption. Most importantly, the group encourages African-Americans to empower themselves, as Malcolm X once said, “by any means necessary.”
