Chuck D Bashes Jay-Z and Kanye on "Catch the Throne"

August 10, 2012

It's no real surprise that Chuck D isn't feeling Kanye West and Jay-Z aka the Throne--after all, Public Enemy's recent track is called "Catch the Throne." While speaking with U.K. publication The Times , the PE leader explained his aversion to the apparent selfishness of the Throne. He said the rap duo are too focused on materialism.

''Hip-hop celebrates those who wanna make a killing instead of a living. I like those guys, but they make me laugh sometimes because I don't get who they're here for, other than themselves.''

"Catch the Throne," is off Most of My Heroes Still Don't Appear on No Stamp, which is one of two albums the legendary group will drop this year. The second, titled The Evil Empire of Everything, is slated for a fall release.

lowkey

jay z is so corny with the 'im richer then everybody' bs now. you would think he's been rich long enough now to be use to it, but he even brags about all the 'things' his child has that the average folks cant afford. i think kanye need to seperate from that lil circle, his music was better before he became a third wheel in the jay/beyonce production.and now that kim k is on board he's lost all credibility
