Any more Wall of Sound Hip Hop?

I think OP means something else.

wall of sound ≠ a lot of noise and reverb

I listened to public enemy once to see if there was anything worthwhile to it, but all I took from it is from the main rip rapper guy hates being black as much as I also hate him for being black

That doesn't sound anything like them. Nice try though.

Maybe if you take the lyrics of something like "by the time I get to arizona" at face value like a brainlet, sure it doesn't. But if you're able to think outside of the confines of what's being said and think about it on a larger, more "meta" scale... It's plainly obvious that he's constantly at odds with his blackness and has coped in the only way he can

this
also Anguish on occasion, too

You really need to work on your delivery.

Public Enemy never used reverb.

I'm being 100% genuine. I'd appreciate an actual rebuttal instead of a cop out "Durr u iz a trawlin!!" Comebacks

Public Enemy were trying to reach for the young black audience. But instead, they were praised by old white music critics.
It's a sad fate considering their music is so much more interesting than somebody like 2pac.

Thanks for an actual reply. That's an interesting point. It's almost like they were engineered to serve a purpose in altering mainstream perception of black culture instead of actually appealing to black people of their time

>engineered to serve a purpose in altering mainstream perception of black culture instead of actually appealing to black people of their time
Most people (not just including black people) didn't want to hear songs about prison riots, black power, and shaming people who sell crack. Same as today, it's hard to get teens interested in this. If i recall, they wanted black teens to go off and research their past themselves. Public Enemy was built around the idea of getting you interested in black power shit instead of inherently spoon-feeding you their ideas (not to say they haven't done this before). My theory on why they white rock critics really picked up on PE is due to their obsession with musical innovation at the time.

Interesting, I guess my take is just based on my general proclivity towards tinfoil-hattery

PE does have some tinfoil-hattery in them. I won't lie. Should probably clear up my "spoon-feeding you their ideas" thing. They had a great balance of good music with getting a point across. But they were really good at hyping you up. They had a lot of hype tracks they were made just to pump people up instead of delivering a direct message. I wish more political hip hop artist did this more instead of "lyrical miracle over some boring ass beat".
