Fight the Power: Remix 2020- Public Enemy

(feat. Nas, Rapsody, Black Thought, Jahi, YG, ?uestlove)

A feature list so long, I had to put it in the description!

This 2020 remix of the classic rap song, "Fight the Power" by Public Enemy--featured on their 1989 album, "It Takes A Nation Of Millions to Hold Us Back"--offers an updated version of the song, heavily influenced by the widespread Black Lives Matter protests that have ignited around the world since the murder of George Floyd.

The original creation of the song was incited by director Spike Lee, who asked Public Enemy to create an anthem for his 1989 film, Do the Right Thing. The song can be heard several times throughout the film, including the opening credits which feature actress Rosie Perez dancing to it, and whenever the character Radio Raheem walks onto screen with his boombox. The film and the song both grew out of a time, much like our own, where black voices called out for necessary changes to our society.
