My mouth just DROPPED when I seen the young black boy singing in the beginning!! Just Beautiful this is what hip hop used to be a message related to the times!! We don’t care about y’all money and jewels!! Give the ppl a message!! ♥️💚🖤✊🏾
Agree
EXACTLY Sis, I co-sign on this comment.✊🏾✊🏾💪🏾💪🏾👊🏾👊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
The young guy definitely can sing 🤓👍!
when I saw*
Right on
I genuinely love rapsodys energy. She's a strong sista.
Nas is one of my favorite rappers,but this remake of FTP takes him to another level IMO and I like his line " You're thoughts run your life,be careful what you think " FACTS.
1989 when i arrived to Canada. THIS PLAYED ON THE RADIO. I used to get goosebumps and i didn’t even understand the lyrics. The power? Fight the power!!! Fight all the oppressors on the planet.with love from ✊🏼🇬🇷😔❤️
We all need Public Enemy back more than ever!
100% Truth. More than ever we need that Fire in our collective spirit Brothers and Sisters!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
100% I’ve been saying for years how blatant it is that they’ve tried to completely suppress any music or anything that promotes self empowerment and rightful protest ✊🏽
"We come from gold and diamonds" I tell my children this every day!!!!! DOPE!
The reality of this statement is that it's just not true. You're Ancestors were the weak tribes, who were conquered by the dominant tribes of Africa, Who then Sold your people to nations all around the world. Sad part is you don't realize it. You Hate the wrong people, You hate the Wrong History, Because you hate yourself. Learn and love to be who you are, That's an American, Forget about the whole White,Black,Yellow Brown Bullshit the media and these so called Righteous Entertainers, And Learn Truth.
@@jerodjohnson7240 With all due respect, Jerod, go read a book.
@@camille9803 Tell me the book to read, That proves me wrong. In all Fairness , I think it is you who needs to read a book. Genocide is still happening in Africa, Slavery is still happening in Africa, Rape is still Happening in Africa at enormous rates. It hasn't changed since it started.
Rapsody is amazing, man. She’s probably one of the best rappers out
Public Enemy is... Timeless.
It's really glad to see Flavor Flav back to with Chuck ❤😂
He never left
@@thecitygirl6633 It was a big trolling effort by PE. Chuck D even said in a interview with Talib Kweli that you can't kick out a Founder/Partner. Lol.
@@thecitygirl6633 All love!! ✊🏿
@@thecitygirl6633 That was all planned Flav was in the studio at the time finishing up the new album it will be out this year
It was not fake check out flavs response to chuck on twitter...
I miss this Era of Hip-Hop .,,Public Enemy, X Clan, Poor Righteous Teachers, KRS-One and Of Course The Last Poets when being conscious came with a message. We need this right now.
Agree
4real 4real
Don't forget Paris.
Check out dreamville then. Their whole lineup is dope.
Conscious rap need a comeback. Been sayin it for yrs. not the bs we have now
Rhapsody killed this!!
Chuck D still has the strongest voice in rap! I grew up listening to PE!
Rhapsody gave me chills right there
"You love Black Panther but not Fred Hampton"....TRUTH!
Who was that lady?
@@evadtrent5607 Rapsody
Jaquanda Martin ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
So true
🙌🏿🙌🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
After all of these years, Public Enemy still number one!
Never thought there would be a 30th anniversary of this hit, this rendition is excellent. It was great seeing Nas on a track again.
BET did a great job with this show. Our swagger was on full display
If we had real swag, we'd own BET: lock, stock and barrel. IJS.
Nas verse was 🔥🔥🔥Seneca Village, Toussaint, Dessalines. The 🐐always keeping it 💯!
Imagine if this sparked a return of BoomBap Hip-Hop, when rap told the story of the day.
Black eyed peas brought their roots so maybe Boom Bap is still alive
Bring back those stories in hip hop
Boom Bap had never died nan there had been plenty underground MC's & great producers that have been keeping real Hip Hop alive, you just have to dig deeper 💯
Man_eee Word. Plenty of dope Rap and Hip Hop in 2020. A lot of it is made by rappers that been around for decades. Plenty of younger generations on the scene that holding it down too. It's there, definitely gotta dig for it, the industry is pushing the pharmaceutical trap rap so hard these days.
Acting like RTJ4 didn't come out in June.
“Salute Touisannt and Dessaline” Nas the truth🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹
spirit of revolution.
That's a fact homie he gave yall the shout out i loved it.. damn right Toussaint and dessaline definitely bookman duty aswell.. im jamaican and that's how we connected homie
Love and respect

@@kcc09kcc "What we got to say, power to the people NO DELAY!"
That's the line for me!! 😎
People people we are the same no we're not the same cos we don't know the game
I wish I could give @@Wayne_Nero more than 1 thumb up
Loved Rapsody’s ENERGY!!!! Everybody SNAPPED!!!!
This right time for P.E., X Clan Mos Def, Common, KRS and even Big Daddy Kane to drop a new project.
Glad to see Nas and Black Thought on the same track they had some bad blood once upon time.
Really. I never knew. Lol
@@ryanwilson5903 me either.. not godson and The abdominal Rex.. never knew tension existed onces upon a time
@@ryanwilson5903 that don't sound right.
Well sis that's mostly because 👑Black Thought (Philly's Finest) is better than Nas
Being black is amazing. Y’all be proud ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥
IT DAMN SURE IS BROTHER!
✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
AMEN!!!👊🏾💪🏾🙌🏾
@W B III we are not, however. We got to put it in gear.
Being a Israelite Gods choose people is even better 🕎✊🏿✊🏾🙌🏿
My girl Rapsody holding it down like a down to earth queen on this track.
She’s dope af!!
@@stevendabney7210 Yes sir she ripped it
Powerful! 💥💥💥
Loooooove herrrr
She's so dope and only getting better.
We finally got Black Thought and Nas on the same track.
I LOVE HOW RHAPSODY STAY PAYING HOMAGE TO THE PEEPS THAT PAVED THE WAY FOR HER! LOVE THIS! ♥
Shoutout to Nas, tell that story🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹
My mom, raised me listening to their music. Telling me how powerful black people are, as she is close friends with chuck d since childhood I figured that she was just having us support her friend. But, as time went on I began to understand that what my mom was instilling in me and my siblings that we are powerful and not to think anything else about ourselves.
@M.A Blackwell are you from Roosevelt?
@@williampscott3539 no, I'm from Richmond. My mom and chuck d used to meet and talk when he came down to Virginia for concerts other times he just came down to visit. He got my mom into the nation of islam and she has been changed ever since they met while she was a child.
@mark spannar that's you're views on black people, and this is why you will always be afraid of black people. When you stop being afraid you will be able to live a better life. Fear driving you to be prejudiced will drive you to a life driven to the grave. I also find it funny that you even bothered to watch the video and listen to the song despite being so fearful.
@real american she has, you dont know her. You're just some dude online though, you're free to believe what you want.
@real american No disrespect, peace and love to you but u sound like a person who doesn't travel much or haven't traveled much in your life up to this point to realize how small the world is and there are many people who know famous people, they actually live right here on earth with us, not on the moon. Peace
Biggup Nasir-you my hero my brother I salute your sovereignty with the hardest salute
Bringing back the old school hip hop baby! With a powerful message!

@@Vincelee08 thank you exactly
I can’t count how many times I yelled “period” watching this
Lol. I know that's right
Fist was up the whole time Yesssss! Love my people ❤️💚🖤💯
Chuck D goes toe to toe with everybody with lyrics he wrote over 30 years ago... That's a real MC.
Seriously. The enemy strikes black!
are you the rapper😂
That's an important aspect of keeping relationships. Eye contact sails ships.
Chuck is a legend. "I'm at the age, if i can't teach, I shouldn't even open my mouth to speak." Everything and all, enough said.
ONLY this crew could perform fight the power in 2020-all of my FAVORITES....SHINE ON KINGS AND QUEEN RHAPSODY!
Ironic, this song has kept it's strength and POWER after 31 years!!! Kudos to all involved
Because Chuck D is ageless
This beat..... If ANYONE aint bobbin their head when it hits, ya'll dont feel it in your bones.
GR8119 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I felt it. I’ve got goosebumps!
best beat of all time
I am bobbin enough for everyone who comments.🤛
I was better without all the nonsense.
I LOVE THIS SONG!!! The message is timeless and it's wonderful to see rappers from different generations come together to deliver a righteous message. FIGHT THE POWER!!!
I love everything about this, I’m so here for it!✊🏾✊🏿✊🏽🖤🤎🖤🤎
NASSSSS!! This is why he’s my favorite rapper🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹
Salute Toussaint and Dessalines.🇭🇹
Bri I love u
I love Nas
Nas, dats my baby!!!!😍😍😍🤗🤗🤗
me too
Steel sharpens steel!!! I love us!! Questlove is killing the breakdowns and samples....bringing back the legendary samples...Come through King!!! You better come through YG...cause we come from gold and diamonds!!! Yassss!!!👊🏾❤🖤💚
You couldn't put it any more direct.
This song is EPIC, legendary, etc and this version gives me chills.
And what about YOU JUST SHUTIN THE HACK UP? The song reflects the world in which we live in ... so ... I guess the world is racist ( usually against black people) DO YOU GET IT NOW? 🤦🏾♀️
These are the lyrics Rap & hip hop has been missing for years... Thank you Rapsody,Chuck, Nas, and Black Thought!
"Fight The Power". "Fight For Equality" "Speak Up"
yall already have equal rights. And discrimination laws that protect yall from any violations of those rights. yall just like making noise over nothing.
@Bob Sacamano Thats your opinion.
@@wassgood42 Rights mean nothing if they aren't upheld.
@@rgw1380rw okay, so what rights aren't being upheld?
🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 WE NEED PUBLIC ENEMY MORE THEN EVER RIGHT NOW IN MY OPINION...............
Its up to black radio, they havent stopped recording music since day one.
Yes the whole fight the power message was lost for a minute. But its back now though.
Yes
Run the jewels is putting in work too!
@@fhat6924 Black faces on the radio but the ultimately White man still owns and controls it. That why you hear the damn same songs all day everyday.
If racism is the cancer, Black Thought's the answer. (One of the sickest lines I've ever heard.) 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sudhir Kakar Tf are u trying to say?
Do you mean the cure and yeah!
Amen 🙏 that's my Philly brother
Lol about that...
i wish you also try to stop cannibalism in africa.
Beautiful 😭
He died over 2000 pennies!!!
That line was weak.
Think about it*
@@24KinfO LIES! So what ur sayin is $20 was worth more than a man's life?
The message wasn't weak!
@@24KinfO . . . Don't disrespect the queen like that
@@24KinfO It was weak because it was over your head....
“They saying it’s suicide when dead bodies are swinging “ “4quarter burger ended in murder” this WHOLE DEBUT JUST GAVE ME CHILLS and we are in 2020 not 1920
@Sandy Jones yep
The only lynching happening now are at Margaret Sanger's eugenics KKK Planned Parenthood, that George Soros non Black organization Black Lies Matter ie Secoriea Turner etc, fully supports.
Still powerful to this day🙏🏿🙏🏿 it’s your turn young people don’t give up. Take it to the level young folk.🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🙏🏿
This video got me out of my seat dancing.. Took me back to my Rock Steady Crew days... LOVE IT!
Damn they killed it. YG with a conscious verse. Black Thought and Nas, two of the greatest to ever do it on a track. Chuck D and Flav are etched in history now.
@Sandy Jones Im not even going to respond to this.
I think they were already there
Sandy Jones what the f
Don't forget rhapsody, she ripped it as always
PE will always be etched in history “not his story”
I love Chuck D and PE! I'm feeling this version although you can't beat the original version of FIGHT THE POWER!
The original version is the hardest.
✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾🏹🏹🏹
Exactly. I do not listen to current hip hop, as I am 47 now, but when I heard the music & then chuck d, I got excited & hype ( do people still say hype?) I'm happy he left the verse in about elvis & john wayne.
@@kendramanuel9986 Yes Hype Dope Fresh Tight All Are Words Still Used Describing What's Hip.... lol Much Props....
I don’t care what anybody says, those days were the best.
"WE GOT TO FIGHT THE POWERS THAT BE"
What Power would that be?
Rapsody on FIRE! Song rings true in 2020. Sad to say. This song gives me chills.
This has got to be the most emotional opening I've seen because so many people my age (older) got to see the younger people get up in these cops face to the anthem we started.
YumME72 the difference now is 31 years later I got your back more than ever and my 14 year old daughter is fighting the same power! You can’t stop us all !!!
Tell it!
I got my baby sister loving the original version she understands it and she's only 11
NAS dropping that knowledge as always ✊🏾
This remix is EVERYTHING! I never thought I could ever love this track more.🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
The Rhythm, The Beat, The Cadence, The Rhyme, The Knowledge, The Message, The Soul--It's all in there! Listen and Repeat.
@shayla sapphire I agree with you however, we have to start somewhere and if that message is letting the youth hear it from people that look like them then just maybe they can also put it into action.
@shayla sapphire no disrespect Lil sister, you have a lot of great questions, do you have any answers or Solutions???
Floyd was resisting arrest would be alive had he not thrown down@
@shayla sapphire that man was resisting arrest terribly. Had he just sat in the police car it would have all gone away!!
Oh snap NAS verse gives life man that was 🔥🔥👍👍👏👏
nas took me back with that chair
Yassssssssssssss been waiting on this to make a come back
I’m still listening to this 11-25-2023 Fight The Power
This is hip hop!!!!
Yep. We need more of it.
Ashley Monique Webster Noticed how we can understand what they're saying?🤣
Respect for the Haiti shout out✊🏿🔥👏🏿
You've gotta be a real MC to put Mahmoud Abdul Rauf in your lyrics when most people don't even know who he is... Big up Black Thought.
Craig Hodges too...i think I still have the SI issue with "Chris Jackson" on the cover as a freshman in LSU (cover read ,"Hold That Tiger")
Denver nuggets first that i know that didnt stand before kap
LSU finally retired his Jersey
They don't know Craig Hodges either 😁
THIS is so amazing. So incredibly sweet. This needs more love. LOTS more.
the world needed this....the original is a classic..this is a certified 2020 classic....as for the 57 who disliked, i feel sorry for your mothers....lol
I don't understand it either.
Drexel Rivers All BLM “donations” go straight to Act Blue. Which is dispersed to Democrat politicians. Candace Owens proved that, All Democrats have to do to increase their campaign coffers is to tell the media they control to push white on black crime. And send racial division into a frenzy. Democrats use the black population just like they used the black population centuries ago. Playin them for suckers.
Drexel's Rivers
AMEN MY BROTHER THANKS 🙇🏾♀️💜🙇🏾♀️💜🙇🏾♀️💜🙇🏾♀️💜🙇🏾♀️💜🙇🏾♀️💜🙇🏾♀️
The best rap song this summer 2020 Fight The Power 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯
Yes sirrr
@Niger Nelly yes it is stfu
It's a tie with Lil Baby "the Big Picture" i 'm a 90's/80's/ early 2000 hip head but LiL baby big picture is fire
Y'all don't get the message
The original is great, this one is dog 💩. Making money off ignorant people, that’s what this is.
Hats off to Public Enemy for giving a voice to social injustice over three decades ago!!!
WE COME FROM GOLD & DIAMONDS 💎
The young OGs and OGs did the thing 🔥🔥🔥
We need this on Spotify, and everywhere!
🎯 Just thinking im bumping this in my car somehow. 💯
Black Thought is one of the greatest ever
I think he had the best line too! " If Racism is a Cancer, Black Thought is the Answer!" Then YG, "Put some respect on our name, We come from Gold and Diamonds. Then Nas: "Central Park was once a Thriving Black town."
Damn. That was powerful.
Since a teen and now as a 40+ yr old, I've been a tireless John Brown ally (thanks Killer Mike).
I grew up on PE and to see this song come full circle and mean even more in 2020 and to have the added support of such talented artists is amazing!
I truly hope that hip hop continues to use it's power for this because I love it!
My boy, Nas and the rest killed that performance!
Come throooough Rapsody and Black Thought!! Awesome 🤍💙🤍
This was SO HARD! Humanity scored a goal with this one.
Powerful message!! This is black power now we got to take it to as they say ‘The Man’!!!!
Who is the man? We had a sort of black man in office and we still think racism is the problem?
YG.. that’s what’s up 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love this. We needed this'll more than ever before! Thanks guys!
We were never taught in school how Central Park was once a black town (Seneca Village) that was destroyed.
it wasn't destroyed it was purchased
@@jayjaul158 It was NOT purchased. The residents were ordered to leave by the city.
the entirety of america used to belong to the native americans. think the bigger picture
Bob Sacamano it’s true though surprisingly but the native Americans were the only people with a large population who settled.
@Bob Sacamano whats education lol you believe what ever there tell you there can teach you anything you don't have a clue
YG really did his thang on this record man
History lesson never told us about JUNETEENTH
@Damon McGeachy You took the words right out my mouth!!!!
He was the wrong one to have doing it to me, being that he’s a Colorist.
I’m really impressed I can’t lie
So happy Nas thanked PE for being some of the pavement that protest lyrics walk on.
Black Thought and Nas on a track wit Chuck, amazing. There needs to be a part 3!
You must never forget the past to ensure there is no repition. We must teach our young children the REAL American history. Knowledge is power!
This is the one track in Hip Hop that has never lost its thunder
But like History most have no clue what the song about when it first came out,
Rhapsody is best female rapper out now. Hands down!
the young man's a cappella at the beginning was amazing and sad at the same time. He's too young to have to deal with this. He should be be enjoying life being a child. I love this remake and all its contributors have all given us that fire! We have to stand strong for each other now more than ever!
1989= Radio Raheem Death = Fight the power original
2020 = George Floyd Death (Plus too many Others) = Fight the power Bet Awards 2020 Remix
Yess!!
All others involved had to put some respect on a real anthem!!!!
Wow! That's deep. 1989 - 2020. Same s#!+ different day. But I know a change gonna come. ✊
@Sudhir Kakar How in the entire hell do you know those two was thugs?
@Sudhir Kakar Unless you're speaking on Elvis and John Wayne
This is definitely the best 90’s and new millennial collaboration to date.... powerful ✊🏾
@real american enough to know I loved the performance and the message behind it..
I almost can't bear to hear this little boy sing. It's too heavy for my soul. But at the same time, one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard, from such a beautiful young man.❤️
Ashley Campbell because he’s pure being misguided by bad role models like these clowns . All they do is rap about despair . Bitches, drugs , gang violence and now they’re following their new masters promising this bullshit on defunding police . Hate for the president , while crimes spike, defund the police is about pensions and social security . Sad how she died but she’s selling drugs , and George Floyd shouldn’t have gave the police a hard time lying to his family on meth where he has no business being , shouldn’t have rubbed a pregnant woman at gun point. You don’t see BLM going to abortion clinics
Makes me cry every time.
I love this!!! Chuck D, Public Enemy and this song have really aged well. The definition of an true artist? A person or persons who’s work is still relevant, powerful and inspiring DECADES after it was created.
This best part of the BET AWARDS
