And all this shyt you type is irrelevant to what I posted(and what I thought was the reason).
justifying a person who did what Chuck was alleged of doing is not justifiable because he has white fans, you idiot.

It wasn't the lead single, "Fight The Power" was.
Hell, I think "911 Is A Joke" was like the 3rd or 4th single, off the album.
Fred.
Fight the Power was initially a lead off single for the DO THE RIGHT THING soundtrack.... it was tagged onto Fear of a Black Planet... YOU really do not know your history with P.E.. Stop.

I'm going to say this again! Flavor Flav in 1990 had the hip hop generation Rockin Big Clocks around their necks, doing the flavor flav dance on the dance floor and the word of the Year was Yeaaaaaaah Boooooooy!
nikkas was not rockin tight jeans and a tight ass Phillies Jacket like Chuck D
And it's not a knock against Chuck D, some people just have the it factor and Flavor Flav had it and yes Flavor Flav was more popular then Chuck D
Just like Ice Cube was the Front Man of NWA but Eazy E was more popular.
Y'all nikkas really think from 1987-1993 people went to Public Enemy Concert just to see Chuck D?
They went to see The Rhyme Animal growl on the mic, They Went to see the Quiet Tall Threatening DJ Terminator X catch wreck on the wheels of steel, They Went to see The Minster of Information Professor Griff dropping NOI jewels on the mic, doing Martial Arts and his SW1 doing their steps, They Went to feel the loud energetic frantic hyped up Bomb Squad production and Flavor Flav hyping the crowd with his antics, energy, dance
That's muthafukkin Public Enemy!

Ice Cube was equally as popular as Eazy back in the NWA days. People legitimately believed that NWA was done the moment Cube left. And on top of that Cube went platinum EASILY with Amerikkka's Most Wanted proving his popularity mattered. Chuck D NEEDED Flav. He knew where his bread was buttered. He had a choice back then at the HEIGHT of P.E.s popularity to either kick Griff out for the so-called "anti-semetic" BS or Flav out because Flav was on drugs doing shyt that went against the group's message... and he kicked Griff out because Flav was too marketable for P.E.
Chuck D was nothing like Cube at all.
Not disagreeing with that... Just saying, Chuck actually did a presser over Griff getting kicked out. This was the first time, Chuck did something similar to Flav with not one but two official statements.

With The Ice Cube I slightly disagree and This is coming from a NWA fan since 87 who's favorite member is Ice Cube. Eazy E was more popular then Ice Cube with the fan's and commercially. Eazy E had that star factor that's why he was the first to go Solo not Cube. The whole group got behind Eazy E. And they knew it from NWA and The Posse Album. Dope Man and Boyz N Tha Hood was the singles and it was all Eazy E even though Cube wrote it. That's why Eazy Duz It Dropped right after Straight Outta Compton
And Cube is that nikka! And we all copped Amerikkkas Most Wanted to see if Cube can make it without NWA and The nikka proved he's that nikka
We can agree to disagree... around my way, we saw them both popular... especially when it was told Cube wrote for the group (this before folks around my way acknowledged MC Ren and DOC). But Eazy having the first solo album was a no brainer due to the success of Boyz in the Hood. But from my understanding all of them were supposed to do solo albums with Cube being next, but that's when Cube left. Cube originally wanted Dr. Dre to produce his album, and still was trying to get Dre to leave but Dre wasn't with it. That's why he went to New York to get his album done, because he felt nobody out in the west at the time could produce like Dre.
But not going to say you are wrong about Eazy... because he was POPULAR and always been the FACE of the group. I just felt from my hood we saw Cube just as popular. Cube stood out the most off of Straight of Compton in our eyes at that time.
Im riding with Bernie politically but this is wack and bad optics

People loved him yes but he was also getting clowned like pretty much every rapper ever. They needed each other yes that’s true but people are acting real crazy about this situation lol. Chuck and Flav were together during their prime years and that’s all that matters.
Damn, we got Flav sympathizers in here paintin him as a victim after 35+ years of fukkery. Endless fukkery 
The guy "who looks like one of Snoop's burnt roaches"
Flav should be so grateful he's lasted as long as he has. Both on earth and within PE. He's got the number of lives of like 10-15 felines.

That’s what I’m sayin. I might like him more than anybody on this site (hence the name) but I know Chuck is old and just sick and tired of his bullshyt and said “Fuk it, Enough is enough. I’m done with this dude.”
Official Statement
Public Enemy did not part ways with Flavor Flav over his political views.
Flavor Flav has been on suspension since 2016 when he was MIA from the Harry Belafonte benefit in Atlanta, Georgia. That was the last straw for the group. He had previously missed numerous live gigs from Glastonbury to Canada, album recording sessions and photo shoots. He always chose to party over work.
Public Enemy Radio toured Europe and co-headlined with the Wu-Tang Clan in May 2019 without Flavor. They have also done numerous benefit shows without Flavor.
While Public Enemy Radio was moving forward, Flavor Flav was starring on the reality show "Growing up Hip-Hop New York,” where an episode featured his children discussing an intervention and putting him into rehab.
It’s time to move on and everyone wishes Flavor well.
