Event Description
TICKETS ON SALE FRIDAY APRIL 2nd AT 10AM
The show will feature all members of the group including Chuck D, Flavor Flav, Professor Griff, the S1Ws and DJ Lord!
Public Enemy transcends the confines of rap and pop music, remaining one of the African Ameri-can community’s most important messengers, digital music’s greatest champions, and a rare rap group who need not rely on misogynistic and pro-violent lyrics. The group burst onto both the rap and pop music world in 1987 with their first single, “Public Enemy #1,” a startling combination of Chuck D’s commanding orations, Hank Shocklee’s layered cacophony of musical noise, and Flavor Flav’s show-stopping antics to keep the message entertaining. The song is not only known for in-troducing a whole new sound to the rap genre, but for giving the group their name.
