Its absolutely undeniable that outlets were not covering Nipsey in a way that matched his reach.
I'll leave coverage of Brooklyn drill opinions to D-40 tho

New PE - I guess Chuck D and Flav ultimately made up, but regardless: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQvDRe79F8k&list=RDOQvDRe79F8k&start_radio=1&fbclid=IwAR3qH8BtdzYgNi2up7hfcVCVKzX71nkA6sibSKr2sWEENId_iOOMq2ohjDE

The chorus feels more like Ice-T than Public Enemy. Good track, though - better than I expected from them at this point.

Exactly. We'll miss them when they're gone for good.

I do like how Chuck's gruff older man voice brings to mind all these MCs that have been gruff from the start, like, I dunno, Method Man or El-P or all sorts.

This made me look up this remix, a guy I went to college did it when he was also in school and it made their album:

His electronic music was so sick, but now he only makes contemporary classical/experimental stuff and electro-country.

some semi-coherent quotes in this interview with Chuck but this one was simply to the point.
The fact that this guy, Donald Trump, who’s been philandering a half-assed celebrity joke for the last 45 to 50 years in New York City, the fact that he has that power is a disgrace to the planet Earth. He’s not equipped to govern millions of people or thousands of people. He’s not equipped to govern 100 people. Get the fuck up outta there. He shouldn’t even be there. The fact that he pulled a three-card-monte job on the United States of America isn’t just a reflection on him. It’s a reflection of the comfort zone a lot of Americans feel. They’re telling you your life don’t matter. Black lives don’t matter. Women don’t matter. You can go through a lot of the doctrine of the United States of America and see where it’s been shown and proven that certain people don’t matter. On top of that, you have authority that basically says they don’t care.

It's not that special. Just another later period pe mixtape/album. But with lots of guests.
― candyman, Tuesday, 29 September 2020 10:14 (three years ago) link
The PE#1 is alright but, yeah, nothing special.I loved PE in their heyday but now it's like caring about a new rolling stones albums.

When did chuck d become such a wooly speaker?
He also sounds bored on the very first song of the new album. Just going through the motions. And every verse on fight the power 2020 seems to have been cut in a different studio.
― candyman, Tuesday, 29 September 2020 12:20 (three years ago) link
It was done for the BET Awards so everyone was remote
Though even without the pandemic I think it's more the exception than the rule that guest verses are done in the same studio

I saw PE at a Bernie rally last year and Chuck was just over the map w/ his banter, more than I ever remember him being...maybe abt half (?) of it held together, that ^excerpt seems relatively coherent by comparison

Xpost - the most jarring was the Beastie Boys on the PE#1 remake - I swear they recorded that on their iPhone

If neither of them plan to record again, it makes sense that they don't have home vocal studios
though Adrock's partner might have a microphone around at least
