I am familiar with the original Public Enemy version and this version. Hmm, let's see: They have the same lyrics, and therefore carry the same message, so I'm not going to get into that. This version has some better music to it, so that's a plus. Not being a fan of either PE or Tricky, I think I can safely say this. Then we can add the subjective comparison based on liking male or female vocals better. I won't do that, but I will point out that Topley-Bird sounds a bit more understandable.

LOL! what a great comment. Flav went from respect to an absolute buffoon. Also I believe Tricky is paying homage to Public Enemy not trying to "do" them,

If you scavenge the internet, there's actually footage of Chuck D performing this song with Tricky. So I'd say that this version is officially sanctioned by the man himself. Try searching 'Tricky "Chuck D"' on Youtube.

Pre Flava Flav of Love I might have agreed. Now, not so much.

I'm sorry, but only Public Enemy can do Public enemy. There is only one and this is clearly not it.
