Public Enemy

uh, well, that should definitely happen 😲

Let’s be realistic here, though. At least de la Soul actually had a few hits rolling in just a couple of years ago, whereas Public Enemy have been forgotten for so long they’re practically ancient history 😁

But whatever, we move... because at the end of the day, they're still kings

S1W used to have this super intense, militant vibe on stage, rocking black military gear and carrying replica Uzi submachine guns during their sets. Chuck D Statement.

🙂 🙂

As Edi Marfi said—kill all the white people, but make them buy our records first.

Those photos are killer. All we’re missing is the Uzzis and the bombs—every mother out there would be fighting to have them as a son-in-law.

🤣

A bit pricey...👎

I’m not trying to hype them up or tear them down, but I remember what it was like seeing them three years ago at the Sports Center in New Belgrade: the whole thing dragged on for nearly three hours. For the first fifty minutes, they just ripped through all the hits from the old albums, and man, hearing that live band sounded incredibly powerful and high-energy. Then, they spent about half an hour dragging us along with the new material, and for the final hour, Flavor Flav basically put on a freak show, pulling people from the crowd onto the stage to try and rap thirty-second snippets of whatever they wanted. By the end, the house lights came up and half the crowd had already cleared out, but they just kept going with some freestyle nonsense for God knows how long. The ticket price was 10 bucks.

If only the concert was a bit later... maybe towards the end of the tenth or something...

Zanimljivo, yet curiously, nobody seems to be bringing up that old Public Enemy gig back at the Sports Center...

Hey, why does that guy insist on rocking such a massive chain around his neck? Is it because money talks these days? 🤔

Anyway, I'll see you guys at Tvornica 👍

They’re a waste of time. Just go see the Meteors instead.

You go listen to Sisters of Mercy then☕

Well, that's it. I already went.

It’s interesting how everyone skips over that old PE concert at the Sports Center...

back when they were still mostly white😬

They say they've taken the complete opposite path from Škoro... ☕

Honestly, don't even believe them—they’re only showing up now because I stopped listening to that stuff ages ago. 🤣 I mean, where were they all back when the baggy pants era was actually happening? At the end of the day, I wouldn't drop $150 on Tiësto, so there's no way I'm paying for "the good old days" either. 😬

If Jay-Z comes to the States, I’d probably pay $167 any price for a ticket. I might even sell a kidney if I were broke, just to see him live.

You're something else.

Isn't it funny how that works? 🤣 Where was everyone back during the era of baggy pants? Honestly, I didn't even drop $35 on Tiësto, so why would I pay for the good old days now? 😬

Man, you are seriously cool. It’s wild to see how much you’ve grown and how much your musical taste has evolved into something entirely new. It’s like you’ve finally opened a third eye, hasn't it?

Can we please keep this Public Enemy thread focused on the group? Let's try not to clutter the discussion with Jay-Z.

They are honest African Americans, whereas Jay-Z is just a Black man.
