I remember thinking I was unusual for “discovering” Public Enemy only to find out that all the kids at my white/ Latino high school who were mostly into heavy-metal and punk loved PE. A year later I saw frat boys blasting “Straight outta Compton” from their Jeep and I thought, “yep, rap is now officially mainstream.”

Actually this was the last song on the album when it was originally released. The two songs that you're referring to were added later on a re-release. They were underground songs that they figured to add them, after his death. As a 19 year old from the "hood', I cried when I first listened to it. I role played with the song and act as if that was me. I still do tear up a bit when I hear it. That's just the mentality of those in those environments. Our events may not be exactly the same, but we all share similar stories and feel this way. It's crazy we can't see how traumatic it is when we're in it, but if you get to live long enough, and gain more wisdom, and how other people live, you realize that no one should have to feel like that. Especially due to the circumstances we were put in. But it's touching your dad could feel the pain in the lyrics we live.

I'm so happy that you guys have this bond, and your father is such a kind empathetic soul. To ache with sadness for someone else's pain and expression of pain...that's level of humanism is what we should all aspire for.

I just love that your dad is so open to listening to different music and having authentic conversations with you. I also love his understanding that he doesn’t “understand” the magnitude of what various artist might have gone through, but he’s not judge mental at all! People who have been through that lifestyle don’t always support their children listening to certain things and getting understanding. You have a phenomenal dad! So blessed you can share things you love with him without feeling judged!

Growing up in the 80's and 90's, this is the music of my youth. Back then hip-hop wasn't embraced, recognized, or understood by our elders - and certainly wasn't recognized as art. I love that it's now being appreciated by so many more people.

“Mental illness brought on by the same“ your father is one smart cookie. I suffer from multiple head traumas and I love that he has the capacity to acknowledge and where a person is coming from when they write a song or a wrap. And that’s coming from somebody that’s not a rapper fan but I just can’t get enough of your channel ! Sending love to you and yours from Orlando Florida. More videos!
