Hip-hop group Public Enemy announced on Sunday that after 35 years of service, they would be permanently “moving forward” without rapper Flavor Flav following his decision to send a cease-and-desist letter to presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders over fellow rapper Chuck D’s concert at a Sanders campaign’s rally in Los Angeles on Sunday.

“Public Enemy and Public Enemy Radio will be moving forward without Flavor Flav,” the group said in a brief statement Sunday. “We thank him for his years of service and wish him well.”

I don’t know who any of these people are, but I assume it’s a good thing for us that they are having this row.

All I read was the headline. And all I have to say is: "I hope the rally goers enjoyed the spectacle.

Fight the Power, Flav!

This is devastating news. I don’t think that I will be able to function at work for the rest of the day. I will need time to grieve, reflect, and search for answers. It won’t be easy, but strong fellow Freepers. Stay strong.

Who? Who? Lots of questions here.

Chuck D

Now that’s a brain I go to for political advice..yo

I’ll take Luther Campbell for my urban black wisdom

Flavor Flav said F U, pay me, I don’t work for free. You have to respect that. Also, there is a backstory to this. Flavor Flav is broke because Chuck D got all of the royalty money due to songwriter credits where FF just got money from album sales and touring.

This is like The Doors without Morrison; The Stones without Jaggar; The Stooges without Iggy.

[rktman]

Iggy without Pop.

[Red Badger]

FLAV refused to support Sankofa after Harry Belafonte inducted us. He don’t do that.”

Sounds like a conservative to me...................

[4yearlurker]

The Stooges without Curly.

[max americana]

Service my ass.

Chuck D is an anti-white ghetto animal if you pay attention to the lyrics, and Flav made them “bearable”.

[dfwgator]

Flav just wants to have a good time, he’s not political, like Chuck D.

[rktman]

Yeah, but NWA?

[themidnightskulker]

Cher without Sonny.

[suthener]

This has been posted 3 or 4 times and I still cannot make head or tails out of what it says. Looks like a bunch of random words strung together.

[Red Badger]

I can see his point, he just wanted the Sanders campaign to stop using his likeness and that is no different than using his music without paying the royalty...........
