Public Enemy’s single “Grid” featuring Cypress Hill and George Clinton “is a love letter to Hip-Hop’s golden era (and the classic Def Jam roster’s role in it), full of withering political analysis, blistering boom-bap and rap-rock productions (Vulture).”
The legendary group has released an animated video for the single directed by Ice the Endless, with background by ThatOneDudeZach and visual effects by RMELL and ARTJCON. The track and video for “Grid” is the latest from Public Enemy’s recent album, “What You Gonna Do When The Grid Goes Down?”
The album marked the group’s historic return to Def Jam Recordings and includes guest appearances by Nas, YG, Rapsody, DJ Premier, Black Thought, Questlove, Cypress Hill, Run-DMC, Ice-T, PMD, George Clinton, Daddy-O, Jahi, The Impossebulls, Mark Jenkins, S1Ws Pop Diesel and James Bomb and Mike D and Ad-Rock of Beastie Boys.
