Apocalypse 91... The Enemy Strikes Black (studio album)
by Public Enemy

I don't find the music or production very interesting on a lot of this album, compared with Public Enemy's previous two albums (the Bomb Squad didn't produce this one). The rapping and beats are pretty good, though much of the rapping is too fast for my liking. I liked Flavor Flav on the second half. But this album does interest me enough to want to hear it again.

Great album. Terribly underrated. Everybody who listened to the rest of PE discography knows that this is, along with it takes a nation and fear of a black planet, one of their best albums. The sound is even rawer than the previous albums, if you can picture that, with the bomb squad kickin harder than they've done before and chuck d delivering his terribly good conscious flow. If you're a PE fan, this is essential. If you're not, than it is just good music (wich not always is easy to find).
Best tracks: can't truss it; 1 million bottlebags; bring the noise (feat. Anthrax)

Bring the Noise was epic. The rest of this album is a little preachy.

Thanks Naples - your tremendous knowledge of hip-hop enables me to identify the key tracks without having to listen to the rest.

A letdown after Fear Of A Black Planet, and a bit preachy. But these guys were still so much better than most of their contemporaries.
