I have completed episode 154 of my “opus project,” in which I listen to an band’s full discography. This edition: PUBLIC ENEMY. PE is my favorite rap act; Chuck D is my favorite rapper. Their influence cannot be overstated. They do not suffer from subtlety. And they still bring it (check out their rockin’ 2017 release).
Favorite album: It Take a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back
Favorite song: Fight the Power
Favorite late-period album: Rebirth of a Nation
Compared to expectations: same
