Free Music Review: The Most Outspoken Rap Album to Date (as of 1998)
Hit: 5 Stars
Although most Public Enemy fans I know name 'It Takes A Nation of Millions..." as their all-time favorite PE album, it is impossible to deny that "Fear of A Black Planet" is the most politically-charged of any of the brilliant group's LPs.In addressing such topics as interracial dating (track #7), Hollywood's persistent exploitation of blacks (#9), the chasm between white media and black America (#4), PE enlightens but does not moralize, they preach but do not judge. Apart and beyond all of this, Public Enemy advances a theory of why white people are innately afraid of black people: that a black man and black woman will beget black; a white man/black woman beget black; a black man/white woman beget black; yet only a white man and white woman will beget white; hence, the white man's subconscious fear of a lurking, gradual extermination, and the LP's title.
Whether the assorted voices of diplomats, zealots, and reactionaries in this recording appeal to your sensibilities or challenge your own system of beliefs, they will touch a nerve and make you think; which in the end, is all one can ask from any great work.
