Dudes are too lazy to read half an article these daysOver an old white guy of all things
Dude is suing them all the time, they are not on speaking terms and he's not supporting shyt like Harry Belafonte. Meaning that they think that not only has he turned into to a c00n but he also fukks up their bread and takes people to court.

What Flavor Flav does and support is his choice the same as who Chuck D does and support. The DIFFERENCE is Flav kept it separate from Public Enemy. Chuck D is incorporating P.E. into his own personal endorsement.
Flav had EVERY RIGHT to tell the Sanders campaign to not include him or mislead people because he never endorsed Bernie.
Flavor Flav, at the HEIGHT of the group's popularity, was the main reason for its popularity. So, to just dumb it down to "just a hype man", hype men wouldn't even EXIST had it not been for Flavor Flav.

Dont mind me..Im a azzhole
Why didnt Flav handle this internally with Chuck?
Flav could have eloquently posted he wont be performing with P.E. at the Bernie Sanders Rally.
BUT-
Breh sent a whole C&D letter representing the group, Not his personal interests.
Chuck's beef is Flav getting paid for EVERYTHING, whereas he does free shows.
Chuck said the only way Flav would do a Bernie show is IF he was getting paid.
I mean, take that for what it is..

How can anything he did in entertainment be separate from Public Enemy? People see Flav they associate it with Public Enemy. There were people who saw Flav on a negative light because of his stint in reality television asking what Chuck D thought. If what Flav was doing didn't represent Public Enemy, no one would care what Chuck D thought. Honestly, neither of them can really do much on their own and say "hey, this is my thing and not indicative of the group". People see Flav or Chuck D and they are going to associate their work with Public Enemy.
This is revisionist history and gossip
I grew up on PE and Chuck D was the reason the group mattered. Flav had his role and was loved but don't let your opinion of Chuck in 2020 change his place in the group's history.
Issuing a C&D letter is the definition of not keeping it separate from PE.
As far as the bolded....
Again....
He was a hype man and his solo songs (aside from "911 Is A Joke") were considered novelties on the PE albums. The greatest songs in PE's discography, feature Chuck D front and center....and Flav as a mere hype man.

kicking your guy out cuz they dont like the same white man as you is some hoe shyt...Chuck D Yells “fukk Donald Trump” At SXSW, Flavor Flav Is Like “Not So Fast”
Flav been on some not-so-subliminalshyt for years; I ain't surprised this latest round of nonsense finally drove Chuck D up a wall with him. 99% of people pretending to be outraged or indignant about this don't even listen to or follow modern 2020 Public Enemy's music anyway so I'll let them cook for the next 12-36 hours before they get bored and proceed to never mention or listen to anything either of them go on to do separately for another decade or more
...black folks love these politicians way too much.

This is just another low key self exposal thread where we are able to identify the agents of White Supremacy hiding in plain sight on The Coli

Yes he does own Public Enemy, did you not read shyt? Flav's lawyer even admitted that Chuck D owned Public Enemy in his response letter.
Chuck D habitually does appearances for free when it's a cause he believes in, that's his entire M.O. You clearly don't know shyt about Public Enemy, do you?
I'm convinced dudes are just posting blindfolded and straight up not reading/thinking critically about anything.
They don't actually care about this or PE. Some of the folks in here are quasi- Trump Supporters mad that Chuck D is riding with Bernie. The rest are just the typical crabs that jump at any chance to call a "conscious" rapper a hypocrite...
