Public Enemy Picture
Public Enemy, also known as PE, is a seminal old-school rap group known for their politically charged lyrics and their interest in the concerns of the African American community. PE formed in Long Island, New York, in 1982. They were signed to the still developing Def Jam record label after Rick Rubin heard Chuck D freestyling on a demo. It then took roughly five years before their debut, 'Yo! Bum Rush The Show', was released in 1987 to critical acclaim. They went on to release the revolutionary 'It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back' in 1988, which performed better in the charts than their previous release, and included the hit single 'Don't Believe the Hype'.

Death Of A Carjacka Lyrics

Public Enemy

Ridenhour - hayes - porter
Im keepin a cool head
Smart and calculated
Tell da skinheads what I said & they hate it
One dumb move they make
A mistake a turnover/going going gone
And its over
Shoulda thought silly rabbit
Those habitsll getcha
Runnin whitcha life
So what some sucker snuck inside a knife
But Im checkin it out
Back from a far you know
Theyll never know Im backin up
An jettin to my car
B4 they steal it
Watch me ride an wheel it
Ooh! child here it comes now
I can feel it
Inspiration from the situation
Flowing to what I know an...
This aint nuttin but another
Headline statistic, two brothers
But one went ballistic
Now Im chillin beside my ride
Pulled over the side
Five-o ran a check
Now how the hell am I suspect
