The original Public Enemy line-up
featuring Chuck D, Flavor Flav, Professor Griff and the Security of the
First World will be playing a series of shows in Joburg and Cape Town.
The group will be playing at the clubs
The Alex, The Assembly and Atmospheer, in JHB and Cape Town respectively
with hard-hitting in-your-face shows that will blow audiences away.
Loved and respected by millions of music
fans worldwide for their revolutionary and politically-charged lyrics,
innovative beats and incendiary live shows, Public Enemy are rightfully
recognized for helping develop the Hip-Hop movement’s sense of social and
political consciousness, and re-writing the rules that have shaped the
genre for the past 25 years.

Groundbreaking albums such as “Yo! Bum
Rush The Show” & “It Takes A Nation Of Millions..” stand as true classics
and Public Enemy are still regarded as the most important band in Hip-Hop.
Chuck D’s insights into politics, social
injustice and the future of the music industry are as powerful as ever,
and he continues to be an outspoken activist, lecturer, author and
producer.
As part of the tour – he will hold
workshops in both Johannesburg and Cape Town, where he hopes to impart his
wisdom and knowledge to SA’s hip hop community. (Details TBA).
