Beastie Boys were very influential to the rap of today. Many list them as their greatest inspirations, which is pretty cool considering they are three dorky white kids. I'm impressed with the list of albums. Usually polls end up in stupid choices that reult in everyone complaining. I see you've been looking through your collection a bit here, Bill.

i own most of those albums-nas,de la, tribe,nwa,beasties. but for some reason i have never ever listened to that public enemy album, i have a few tracks and i respect them from what ive read and all the various articles and tv shows this has been about. so im thinking, tomoro im gunna go buy it, its obviously a good album and yeah as you say its been said its done alot for hip-hop.

i think de la influenced hip-hop alot though, but in different way, dre and nwa brought out a completely differnent side of hip-hop. chuck d of public enemy speaks of de la being the 'most influecial hip-hop group of the last 20 years'.

public enemy, de la soul and groups like that put hip-hop in a good direction whereas dre, nwa decided to push their musical message as what chuck d descibes as 'nigga nigga nigga self degrading stuff,' he describes this as a easy way out for artists, whereas bands like public enemy pushed it in a better direction, more intelligent rap.

The rap acts of today could learn a lot from Public Enemy, all they ever did was tell the truth and everyone listened.People were not used to receiving a whole lot of information in that particular time period, you could learn more about black history on a Public Enemy album than what was ever taught in a classroom
