"RIP Public Enemy 1986-2020 (link)"

Didn’t think I would live long enough to see an iconic group from my childhood go down in flames, lawsuits, and cease and desist letters, but here we are. Glad Wu survived similar discord.


Peace,

...since 1989/90. As soon as someone offers the group big money to tour during a spring/summer and a fat paycheck for overseas appearances, Flav will patch things up with Chuck and they'll be back.

Flav has been a tv reality clown for a number of years now, I hear what Chuck is saying and respect his opinion

I LOVE PE, but let's be honest, it ain't really PE without FLAV.

If Terminator X can get replaced by DJ Lord, Flav can get replaced too. I like Malik B a lot too. The Roots survived his departure. I’m not saying Flav isn’t good. I’m saying he can be replaced.

...i get Flav was a big part of their image ..but a lot of the time I feel he took away from the seriousness of the group and their message just for the sake of comic relief

to their success/image

Vocally and visually he provided energy and a contrast to the rest of the group

Also from what I hear he also was their main instrumentalist
