  If Rakim and KRS-One changed the game lyrically in 1987, Public Enemy updated their style and was right there with &apos;em when &apos;Rebel Without A Pause&apos; dropped in the summer. Chuck D was a top 5 emcee, even tho he was more of topic based lyricist. Undeniable that after that one song, almost everyone had to have that say a word/series of words (&quot;Yes&quot;), a brief pause (&quot;... &quot;), finish the line (&quot;the rhythm, the rebel... &quot;) shit in their rap. Big Daddy Kane: &quot;Here I am:... R-A-W... &quot;. Ultramagnetic M.C.&apos;s/Kool Keith: &quot;Well, I&apos;m the ultimate,.... the rhyme imperial... &quot;. LL Cool J: &quot;Milky,... and I&apos;m back... &quot; Tuff Crew: &quot;Rock on... &quot; and so on... - very influential for a few years. Also influential was that Bomb Squad production on &apos;RWAP&apos;. Marley Marl might&apos;ve kinda started it with &apos;The Bridge&apos;, having that horn in the background, but PE having that James Brown horn sample in &apos;RWAP&apos; took shit to a whole new level. Again, for the next 3-4 years, damn near every hot rap song had to have some kind of noise in the background. I didn&apos;t even mention how Chuck D brought consciousness to Hip-Hop. Public Enemy most definitely also changed the game.

  The 80&apos;s....the greatest era of Hip Hop ever! 90&apos;s were great too, but the 80&apos;s are definitely called &quot;the golden age&quot; for good reason🎤
