Jimmy Kimmel has been in a heated beef with President Donald Trump over some comments he made about the death of late right-wing podcaster Charlie Kirk, which resulted in the late-night talk show host being temporarily suspended before returning to the airwaves last week. Now, as Jimmy Kimmel Live! returns to the host’s native Brooklyn for a run of episodes, he’s getting some loud support from fellow New Yorkers, Public Enemy. During the group’s Monday night appearance on the show, they performed a medley of tracks including “Don’t Believe the Hype” and “Fight the Power,” with the new track “The Hits Just Keep On Comin” sandwiched in between.At the start of the performance, however, the duo made it clear that they are in Kimmel’s corner, with Flavor Flav saying, “I just want you to know that Public Enemy always got your back.” Check it out below.On June 19th, the legendary hip-hop group dropped “March Madness” — from the forthcoming album Black Sky Over the Projects: Apartment 2025 — amid a massive world tour. It’s a bold, protest track calling a community to action against “crooked politicians” and the epidemic of gun violence.“Too much talk, we know you don’t care … and 911 is still a joke,” Flavor Flav declares in the song, referencing one of the group’s biggest songs, from their 1990 record Fear of a Black Planet (one of the greatest rap albums of all time). Chuck D adds, “Kids are supposed to have fun — none of this ‘run for cover for your life,’ son … even kindergarten needs security … parents dropping their children in fear.”Flavor Flav declared Public Enemy’s Stance on Gun Violence in a Newsweek Op-EdLater, in an Op-Ed for Newsweek, Flavor Flav made the rap group’s position very clear, saying they believe the only appropriate solution to gun violence is to ban guns.“I fear for my kids when I drop them off at school. Our schools aren’t safe and our kids aren’t safe,” Flav writes. “This is because gun protection laws are weak. Guns are falling into the hands of the wrong people. I would know. I went to jail because of guns. I ended up on Rikers Island. So I am speaking from first-hand experience.”All immediate proceeds from the track will be donated to the Black Music Action Coalition Human Rights Fund and Everytown, a nonprofit organization dedicated to reducing gun violence.The post Public Enemy Tells Jimmy Kimmel They ‘Always Got Your Back’ Amidst Late Night Suspension and Trump Beef appeared first on VICE.
