Public Enemy joined Hootie & the Blowfish at Stagecoach Festival on Sunday, April 26th. The appearance was highlighted by a performance of their classic “Fight the Power,” delivering a politically charged message that likely flew over many attendees’ heads.
Chuck D and Flavor Flav initially appeared during Hootie’s cover of Buffalo Springfield’s protest song “For What It’s Worth,” turning it into a medley with their own “He Got Game.” Then, the duo delivered a commanding rendition of “Fight the Power.”
Referring to “Fight the Power,” Rucker told the Los Angeles Times that “it’s a good place for the song” with “everything going on in the world these days.”
