Description
It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back is a 1988 record by US hip hop group Public Enemy. It rewrote the rules of what hip-hop could do.
What's particularly clever about the album is how it reconfigures things that came before into a startling, fresh, modern sound. Public Enemy used the template Run-D.M.C. created of a rap crew as a rock band, then brought in elements of free jazz and hard funk.
