FIRST TIME HEARING Anthrax, Public Enemy - Bring Tha Noize (Official Music Video) (REACTION$ 

Its hard to stay segregated in a mosh pit. ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻✊️❤️

Quick summary: This was a Public Enemy song. In the original version, Public Enemy gave a "shout out" to Anthrax (as in this version) because Scott Ian wore PE shirts on stage during Anthrax concerts. Scott Ian (rhythm guitarist from Anthrax with the bald head and rapping the 3rd and 4th verses) approached Public Enemy about doing a collaboration. This was the eventual result. There is a live version on RU-vid that is awesome!

Let’s not forget Ice T formed a thrash metal band.

This song came out in 1991. Anthrax has another fun rap song of their own called "I'm The Man." Public Enemy typically does socially conscious songs, kinda like RatM. There was a soundtrack for the movie "Judgement Night" that came out in 1993, that paired up rock and rap groups for each song on the track. It's all fire, but underrated.

49 year old white dude here. This song was fire miles wide then! Remains so today! Let’s work together and Bring the Noise to anyone and anything that seeks to separate us!

Anthrax and Public Enemy had a tour together based on this hit, and it was the most successful tour of both bands careers. And the crowds were mixed hip hop and metal crowds, and you didn't hear anything about fights or problems. They literally brought different groups of people together to enjoy and experience music.

The thing about hip hop is that most popular artists these days have no knowledge of music in general. Artists from the 80's and 90's were fans of music, not just the genre they were a part of themselves. One of the big reasons that production back then was so much better. They had a wealth of knowledge to draw from that just isn't present today. Also, back in the early days PE was known to perform at punk shows.

The Judgement Night soundtrack. Absolute gold!!!

People don't realize that Hardcore Rap and Hardcore Metal has always had much love and respect for each other. The 80s were real as hell.

Public Enemy have plenty of political lyrics. This was originally just a Public Enemy song. But Scott Ian was a huge PE fan, and he approached Chuck D with the idea. Chuck liked it, and here we are. A very heavy influence for some of the Rap Metal bands that came out soon after.

It takes a nation to hold us back One of the best albums of any genre you will ever hear

That is Chuck D ... Hip Hop OG / GOD/ GOAT ..

The movie Judgement Night has a soundtrack that is all songs done by metal and hip hop groups working together. It’s awesome!

This song was a game changer when this came out. Next up you should check out the team up between Biohazard and Onyx.

This is how music, AND LIFE, should be. We're better together!

As a 44 year old white boy who grew upon this stuff I love to see all these younger folks discovering this music. Much love kid your channel is dope. Keep going.

HEAR THE DRUMMER GET WICKED!!! FIGHT THE POWER! and "Black steel in the hour of chaos" is now a must!!

Anthrax is from New York and came up at the same time as NY hip hop. All the musicians knew each other and played the same clubs. Being a metal fan, Anthrax was a big reason I picked up a Public Enemy cd back in the day and became a hip hop fan as well.

I'm an old school metalhead/punk that grew up loving hip-hop just as much. I count myself lucky t have seen this tour.

Man I was *IN* this crowd! It's was so incredible. This was the closing number with all musicians on stage. DJ X was dope and PRIMUS was the opener. If you haven't seen Primus you need to look them up too!

Early days hip hop and punk, metal were cousins to each other. Same spirit, messages, energy, attitude, boldness, ideology, underground roots, etc. Just a different style of music. Well, this is where nu metal (genre fusion of rap, punk, metal, etc) came from years later. Popular genre during the '90s and '00s. Bands like System of a Down, Rage Against the Machine, Korn, Limp Bizkit, POD, SlipKnot, Incubus, Body Count (Ice T), Faith No More, Sucidal Tendecies, Soulfly, Drowning Pool, etc. Many metal , punk and rap groups collabed with each at concerts in te past. Beastie Boys (did both punk and rap), Cyrpess Hill, Wu Tang, Anthrax, RUN DMC, Aerosmith, Snoop Dog, Dr Dre (he loves Nirvana), Onyx, Suicidal Tendencies, Public Enemy, Sepultura, Busta Rymes, etc.

Metal Heads and Hip Hop fans LOVED this song when it came out. Still holds up great today!!!

Originally this is a PE track from their second album. They gave a shoot out to Anthrax on that song and it became a colllab. It take a nation of millions to hold us back is regarded as one of the greatest albums of all times. Full album reaction material.

One of the best collabs ever. Public enemy one of the greatest hip groups ever. Chuck D is a legend.

Imagine how mind blowing this was back in '91! 🤯 It was like the mega-mashup we didn't know we needed! Two of the most in your face, outspoken bands from "supposed" polar-opposite genres, mashing it up like it was meant to be! Kind of like you said in your reaction, it was like "what the H#$% just happened?!" 😲

They were among the first to cross rap and metal, and they were great ..... I freakin love when Flavor Flav jumps in at the start with "Yeaaaah boooy" 😂

Now.. at 4:17, go back to your LL Cool J's Mama Said Knock You Out reaction.. Both Anthrax and Public Enemy shouted out Eric B, and LL Cool J because their beats were just as hot at the time this came out. Keep in mind that at this time, Anthrax was from Queens, NY, Run DMC was also from Queens, Beastie Boys were from Brooklyn, and LL Cool J was from Harlem, or maybe even the Bronx. So they all were in the same area creating music and all knew each other, so they all knew that rap and rock and metal could blend together because they all had the same vibe. This is what we got. I mean, the same guy that produced Slayer is the same guy that produced LL Cool J. they made it happen and still make it happen. That's why these are classics.

You should check out the soundtrack to the movie Judgement Night. Each song is a collaboration between a metal and and a hip hop artist. Crazy good record

My favorite Rap/metal fusion song after this is Biohazard and Onyx doing Judgement Night. They also reworked the Onyx song Slam together. Later Sticky Fingaz of Onyx appeared on the Biohazard song New World Disorder.

Public Enemy released it in 1987, then re-recorded it in 1989 with Anthrax. 2 NY groups who were fans of each other, recorded the song, then went on tour together. Both are very socially conscious with their lyrics. Peace!

Two True NY Legends Public Enemy and Anthrax.

It didn't always work, but when it did.Metal and rap sounded pretty dope together

There was a time a few years before this that rap wasn't even considered music. It got no radio play except in NYC late at night or very early morning. Also punk and Hip Hop are extremely similar in many ways. More similar than different. Not that this was traditional punk more thrash and hip hop but with a punk attitude.

I was 18 when this came out. Played it at maximum volume every time.

In the 90's collaborations such as this were not uncommon in videos or in concerts, Lollapalooza is a perfect example of this. It was an amazing era in music.

Someone had mentioned Onyx and Biohazard. The song they did was on a soundtrack for a movie called "Judgement Night". The whole album is mashups of hip hop and metal. Lot of good ones. Check it out.

Check out the Judgement Night CD.. lots of great collaborations with Rap and Metal bands...

The best band you've never heard of CLUTCH "ELECTRIC WORRY" 23m views, 4:14 duration

Yeah bro. we didn't have racism problems 35yrs ago. ❤

What you were witnessing is GREATNESS!!

That was 🔥🔥🔥 the way music is meant to be. All together. 💛🤎💚💜💙💗🧡

Hear the drummer get wicked! Blowing minds since '91, PE and Anthrax tearing houses DOWN!

They made history, exactly! Love it!

It was originally a straight rap song on PE's second album. And then they did the duet with a band whose name they dropped in the original song. Both New York City groups.

Aerosmith and Run DMC - Walk this Way

Chuck D! Everything.

Anthrax; one of the BIG 4; ANTHRAX, METALLICA, MEGADETH, SLAYER; ADD RAP! WELL HELL, my brother from another mother; music is music!! Keep on rocking!!!

This sound was groundbreaking when it came out. The cross-over energy was a lot of fun. A lot of good music came out of those years. "What am I witnessing?" History.

Love Anthrax and Public Enemy 🤘 It was mind blowin when it came out. It was also a message to stop allowing the gov/media to keep us separated/hating each other. 80s and 90s had a lot going on. We were trying to get the power back to the people, and get the people together. It was a real movement. Can't wait to see you react to more Public Enemy!

I was 17 when this came out and it was mind blowing. RUN DMC did do a sorta rap rock collab with Aerosmith Walk This Way but this collab was another level of awesome. Anthrax even did their own funny Rap Song called I'm the Man.

This song is great even today. It was a big hit in german rock clubs. This one and the song another body murdered from boo yaa tribe together with faith no more are probaly the two best rap/rock songs ever made. It's on the judgement night sampler from 1993. I'm a rock guy and boo yaa tribe is my favorite rap group. Check 'em out they are funky and they played often with real instruments. After their first rap/rock song they liked it so much that they made a complete rap/rock album on their own.

You gotta check out Fight the Power and Can't Truss it by Public Enemy

In my kid days hip hop was fun and rebellion whatever it took to get there I’m from the hood and I’m white. But shit didn’t seem to matter at the beginning of this shit. What happened? Whose with me? It was our generation making a new sound. Even paying respects through sampling what our parents were listening too. We need to bring the fun back.

I was an Anthrax fan and Public Enemy fan already before this song hit in 90 or 91 . And just shows the power of music , black , white or whatever that we can all get along if we want to ! And why shouldn't we ? Its really all of us against the ones trying to oppress us . They want us divided . F That , I love and respect everybody until I'm given a reason not to by that individual human .

I was there back in the early 80s of Rap when I was young at recess break at my school break dancing and trying to compete with my brothers as a white guy...and I held my own...and I got respect......The 80s was a trip guys as well as the early 90s...I wish everybody could of felt the spirit of music and beats at that time

This song is fire this was one of my first introductions into any rap/metal crossover songs. This song just goes so damn hard. Can’t wait for any UK content u got coming Stax

You know that whole America great again thing ? This is when it was great.

The beat from the last section was from Black Sabbath’s “Sweet Leaf”. If you’re a fan of the sacred leaf, you’ll love it too.

Song from my youth. Thanks. Great to see a new generation discover this.

Yep!

I was an 80s metal head and this song turned me on to rap in '91 so I got to be there for Nas, Wu Tang, and all that other great hip hop of the early 90s

Original by public enemy is a classic but the collaboration took it to another level ie turned it up and bring the noize ❤

Great choice! Great reaction!

I went to public school in a shool district with 15 percent white students so it seemed natural to mix metal and rap. I was a metalhead from birth and a lover of music. I think this was the 2nd collaboration between rap and rock groups, Aerosmith and Run DMC did "Walk this way" first. Anthrax released the song " Im The Man" in '89 which is the first metal band to do a rap metal mix. Anthrax was the lighter side of metal personally and heavy as hell misically. I just wish i had some g..amn milk.😅

the best crossover since RUN D.M.C and "walk this way"

I was in jr high when this came out I haven’t heard this in years awesome collaboration

Tbf it’s a genius collaboration ❤✊

This was my day when I went from rap to metal. That is because I learned guitar, simple as that. This was, fuck the system, we all can rock together. This shit opened up rapper to have bigger stage performance, mix rap and rock. Took a while, f'n happened. These are the GOATS.

Grew up on Public Enemy/TOOL/RATM.Thankfully ✊🏼

Huge fan of Anthrax and this album. Music should not have barriers. That is what makes music great.

One of the hardest songs ever created. The line said Together we all will win is soo prophetic today!

Ice-T has a metal band called Body Count... They were thrown into the forefront back in the early 90s with their controversial song called Cop Killer. Their recent music is amazing. They won a Grammy a couple years ago for Best Metal Performance. 2 of my favorite current songs: Point the Finger - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T3Hi6Dgq8gU.htmlsi=amwhygkTS7Tgl_7t and This Is Why We Ride - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xuag9wcGYI0.htmlsi=tsULKOrcJqrfcq6C

music like this paved the way for new genres like trap metal, and inspired new artist to push boundaries

ANTHRAX was part of the big 4 of metal, in the mid 80s. ANTHRAX, METALLICA, SLAYER, MEGADETH!

Hell yeah!!

My favorite music growing up..rap/rock..bring it back..

Unsure if it has been said, Anthrax is one of the Big 4 of US heavy metal. Along with Metallica, Megadeth and Slayer. They all started in the 80s and all helped in their own way of growing metal coming out of the US

Rock in general and Metal in particular has always been a voice of dissent, as was early hip-hop. Racism is a social construct to divide and distract people from the real struggle, class warfare. It makes complete sense that when people set aside superficial differences, they realize how much they have in common. Rap, rock and metal continue to influence each other to this day, although not in the mainstream of commercialized musical products.

I’m enjoying your reactions. Both Hip Hop and Metal come from the blues so they should mix well. Lemmy, a legendary Metal singer, said Metal is just the blues played really fast. UTFO, an ancient rap group, did a song with Anthrax in 1987 “Lethal”. The hook was so good I still remember the bars. Anthrax just did the chorus. The same year, Anthrax released “I’m the man”, a crazy rap. Congress was mad about Rap and Metal lyrics and put warning labels on them, which is absolutely censorship. Scott Ian , the singer of Anthrax testified to congress about how wrong it was. They took up censorship as their fight for survival. Their lyrics got even more daring. . “Bring the noise” was after that In 1991 and is partly anti-censorship. they released “I’m the man,91” and it’s less silly. I like the silly 1987 version. Anthrax has millions of fans all over the world so you might get some checking out “I’m the Man”.

I was a little too young to appreciate this when it came out but hearing it on the Tony Hawk Pro Skater soundtrack had me hooked.

Great reaction, man! This absolutely made history. Reinforces the importance of unity!

Gave ya the 'stank face' just like it did me! 33yrs later and it still KICKS ASS 🤘💀🤘

Pure greatness in music crossovers!! Great react!!

I've already watched this 10 times

Technically, this is a remix/"cover". Public Enemy created the song Bring the Noise which first appeared the 1987 soundtrack for the film Less than Zero. The song was later released as a single that same year. It later became the first song on the 1988 album, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back. It was a strict hip/hop rap song. Anthrax recorded a version of "Bring the Noise", which sampled the vocals from the original Public Enemy recording. Chuck D has stated that upon the initial request of Anthrax, he "didn't take them wholehearted seriously", but after the collaboration was done, "it made too much sense", and it was eventually included on both the Anthrax compilation Attack of the Killer B's and as the final track on Public Enemy's own Apocalypse 91... The Enemy Strikes Black album.

Public Enemy recorded Bring The Noise as straight up hip hop. They re-recorded with Anthrax layer on.

I was in the studio when antrax anong the living. And m,o,d method of destruction was recorded. Talk about a crazy night.

I got into metal and rap at right about the same time in 88sih. I was rocking Metallica and then rocking Ice-T right after with no fucks to give

This is real rap rock, I remember when this video came out

I so love watching people loving this for the first time

The bring the noise tour was something else, this tour and Lollapalooza which were both in 1991 brought multiple genres together for the tours which was amazing at that time. Saw this in Salt Lake City it was Public Enemy, Anthrax, Primus and Young Black Teenagers. There was an afterparty at a club across the street called DV8 which was kind of our main hangout, but being able to sit down drink and talk with the likes of Flavor Flav, Chuck D and Les Claypool was one the most surreal times I have had meeting celebs

Anthrax- I Am The Man!!!

I was in high school when this came our. Back then, everyone thought you could only like ONE GENRE music. I knew rap, metal, punk, hell even country was the voice of the outcast! Then we had songs like this that broke down those bs barriers that guys like me left behind long ago!

I was at this LIVE in Chicago's Aragon Ballroom back when they toured together in support of this song, they encored this a few times and sent the crowd out chanting Anthrax, Public Enemy as we exited the venue. Absolutely unforgettable and nothing bad happened, two different fan bases united by music!!! To this day Anthrax calls up Chuck D when they're in town and he LOVES the invite and the vibe when they get together for this one live again...

Only 33 Years Ago that this video first dropped...Thats All...my God....time has flown by so very fast...take me back

PE and Anthrax were two of my favorites when this dropped. We went insane, blowing out the speakers. Scott Ian (shaved head) is still in it, always having fun with new projects like this

Chuck d and the lead singer of anthrax are best friends...best mash up ever...genx forever..

Music brings all types of people together. This was awesome when it came out. We played it almost nonstop.

I was there for this back in the day!! We need more unity in music!!

When RUN-DMC teamed up with Aerosmith to do a version of Walk this way it opened the door to the hip hop community and the rock community joining forces. It ended the stereotype that hip hop was for the black community and rock was for the white community. This was a great time to be alive, I'm glad I was there for it
