BAMMM! Most of what there is to say, he's already said. But he hasn't said all that he's going to say. Public Enemy's achievement and influence are so massive that it's easy to overlook some of the superb album tracks that are forgotten simply by virtue of not being, say, "Night of the Living Baseheads" or "Can't Truss It." Here are some. Is it fair for Chuck D. to give us presents on his birthday? Is it wrong to think of him as a scholar and activist as well as an artist? What are fair and wrong, anyway? Are there just words or do they refer to actual underlying concepts? That's the thing about Public Enemy: they get you asking questions that you can't answer unless you ask more questions. It borders on the revolutionary. Happy Birthday, Chuck.
