Description
Widely regarded as a cornerstone of hip-hop history, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back is Public Enemy's groundbreaking 1988 masterpiece. Hailed by Time magazine as one of the 100 greatest albums of all time and declared “the greatest rap album of all time” by Q magazine, this politically charged, sonically explosive record continues to shape the genre decades after its release.
Celebrated by New Musical Express as "the greatest hip-hop album ever" and ranked No. 48 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time—the highest-ranking hip-hop album on the list—its influence reaches far and wide. Tracks from the album have been sampled by artists across genres, including the Beastie Boys, Jay-Z, The Game, Jurassic 5, Madonna, and even My Bloody Valentine.
A landmark release and an essential addition to any serious music collection.
