Given that this past Saturday was the anniversary of the assassination of Malcolm, I thought about the sample "too black too strong" that Public Enemy uses in the beginning of this song, taken from Malcolm's "Message to the Grass Roots" speech in 1963. In addition, the contrast between Chuck D's profound, melodic baritone and Flava Flav's scratchy tenor vocal counterpunches make this a song that I will never tire of hearing.
I dont' think I'm exactly the target demographic they had in mind when they made their music, but 'till this day I still can't help but feel like a badass when I'm driving in my Jeep and a PE song pops on the radio (like earlier today).
