Is there anything better than Public Enemy?

I’ve been entranced by Public Enemy’s 1990 masterpiece “Fear of A Black Planet” since it came out. I’ve worn out a number of cassettes, gave away multiple CDs and recently added a vinyl copy to my collection.

What struck me about the vinyl version was how the “inner voices” leapt out of the speakers. Buried deep within those crushing beats, killer raps and “tha noise” are beautifully sculpted loops that outline quirky chord changes and make the sonically dense catastrophe a true work of beauty.

All hail The Bomb Squad for creating this masterpiece. Is there anything better in the rap world?
