Hitting like a hip-hop apocalypse, ‘It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back’ found Public Enemy unleashing arguably the greatest hip-hop album ever. The album made them legends, cultural icons, Public Enemy turned life up beyond its normal limits. The album features the singles "Rebel Without a Pause", "Bring the Noise" and "Don't Believe the Hype", "Night of the Living Baseheads" and "Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos".
It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back put Public Enemy at the forefront of the hip-hop that music critics felt was important. This was both a benefit and a burden: the album's messages were intended to awaken hip-hop ears and reach the minds of the oppressed. While the record hit the top of the black albums chart, a lot of the buyers who gave the record its platinum status were educated college kids and white fans.
Heavyweight vinyl produced by Def Jam Recordings in 2014.
