By The Time I Get To Arizona - Public Enemy

Kill yourself.

Are you kidding me??? Yo Bum Rush The Show rocked the rap world, It Takes a Nation of Millions is one of my top ten albums of all time. Fear of A Black Planet, more brilliance. Apocolypse 91, while there were a few good songs, was the end of PE as a rap era. Everything post Apocolypse 91 is garbage. Kill yourself or defend your position.

I am somewhere between you two. I liked By The Time I Get To Arizona, and a few other songs on that album. At the time I thought it was a bit sub-par, but far better than the other rap out there. Unfortunately, every thing after that was complete crap.

Yo Bum Rush The Show is also pretty terrible though. It is interesting only as a curiosity for a die hard fan, but it isn't close to their two great albums. PE made two of the all time great albums, one pretty good one, a mediocre one and then a sea of crap.

Well, of course it's personal preference. When looking at the title of the thread, when this song became popular, I knew it was the downfall of everything I loved. If perhaps, you don't believe that this was the song that lead to it, we can all agree that everything after Apocolypse 91 was garbage, right?
