The 50th anniversary of hip-hop continues with Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson, drummer and co-founder of #TheRoots. He was born in 1971 and says he and hip-hop grew up together.
Also, #PublicEnemy's Chuck D talks about the song "Fight the Power" and the powers they were fighting. And we'll listen back to a conversation with Sean "P. Diddy" Combs, A.K.A. #PuffDaddy.

Mommy's listening to Public Enemy today.

When Mad Magazine came out with this few years ago, I'd never dream this might one day come true.

I was playing Bring Tha Noize in the office, and my much younger workmate said "is this song from that cartoon about the businessmen who got turned into squirrels and they travel time?"

Flava Flav from Public Enemy also did the voice of Father Time in the cartoon Yoohoo and Friends ...

In June, I was curious what I might not know about it The Isley's "Fight the Power" so I asked #ChatGPT.

Today, the bot says the Isley's recorded it, but the more well-known version was recorded by #PublicEnemy in 1989.

In June, the bot claimed the Isley's had never recorded the song.

Reading today that a school is using #ChatGPT to ID books to pull from the shelves, I wanted to scream, "THE BOT IS NOT RELIABLE! IT WILL LIE AND MAKE UP FACTS! NOT SAFE! USERS BEWARE!"

And I have.

Feeling some #PublicEnemy vibes & throwing up one of my old school power up songs.

Today in 1973, the most exciting cultural movement to date, kicked off at a birthday party in the Bronx NY, with DJ Kool Herc put the needle on the record on that fateful day.

While my the first time I heard a Hip-Hop song, the Sugar Hill Gang's "Rappers Delight", was in 1980 while visiting my uncle in NY, it was not till 89' when my college roommate, already a massive hip-hop head, schooled me in everything that had come out all the way up to that point. By far my favorite was #PublicEnemy. This was my red pill moment, and from that point on I would never be the same.

Here's their 1989 anthem "Fight the Power" also featured on the groundbreaking Spike Lee joint "Do the Right Thing"

@dznz @Happyfishmedia #FiftyYears or #FiftyYearsOfHipHop?

On reflection - and even before post by @dznz I thought Hang On ....

I DO listen to #HipHop but mostly if the singers are women or nonbinary or the themes are political .... Some of the songs and imagery doesn't appeal but it's not the music. I enjoyed a #PublicEnemy concert in #Wellington years ago so, yeah the music has touched me

Discussion of #JukeboxFridayNight music themes

#GreatAlbums1990s – TOP 20 - #PublicEnemy - #FearOfABlackPlanet (1990). Bottomless sonic complexity, grooves that rock as hard as James Brown, and lyrics that manage to be both outrageous and hilarious made FOABP a furious delight that hasn’t dated a minute in the last 33 1/3 years. “911 is a Joke” and “Fight the Power” get the most air due their continuing social relevance, but the whole disc gave popular music a much-needed kick in the ass. A generational milestone.

#GreatRapAlbums, #HipHop

Finally listened to Gilles Peterson’s 6Music ‘50 yrs of Hip Hop’ show on the 80s this am, and goodness: what a great slice of nostalgia/culture/music/optimism it is.

The whole thing’s worth a listen but particularly from ~1:32:50 when he begins to dive into the brilliance of PE’s It Takes A Nation Of Millions. Particularly nice memories from Betty Boo, of the She Rockers.

I think it’s probably the best album, isn’t it?
