It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back - Public Enemy: Episode 167

Spin It!

Yeah, boy!! Get some bass for your face this week with It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back, the sophomore album from hip-hop pioneers Public Enemy! James & Connor will learn about Chuck D and Flavor Flav's moving van freestyles, Hank Shocklee's Bomb Squad and their iconic wall of noise, and more as we tackle exactly one hour of music. We'll find out what's on Channel Zero (shewatchshewatch), refuse to believe the hype, and learn about everything from dactylic hexameter to Caspar Milquetoast. The Mixtaper informs us about the personal life of Terminator X and Flavor Flav's contributions to sports, politics, and hotel lobbies... You're gonna have to listen to this one, because this time around the podcast will not be televised.
