Thinkin' they might be the best rap band ever. I've got a mini home marathon going on and they just floor me. Thoughts on PE?

    Their music, I feel, is a tad overrated. Their importance and influence on the other hand is not.

    It Takes A Nation... is too long and inconsistent to be one of my real favourites.

    I love PE. Chuck D brought an intelligence to their raps which I find missing in most artists of this genre.

    "Fear Of A Black Planet" is the greatest hip hop album ever recorded.

    I'd take Illmatic, 36 Chambers or The Infamous Mobb Deep over it any day. Still a brilliant album.

    All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.
