Sounds like Independence Day has come early for Public Enemy . After recently leaking plans to release a new album, Nothing Is Quick In The Desert, on July 4, the iconic rap group has uploaded the entire LP to its Bandcamp page .
Chuck D deciphered the meaning behind the title earlier this week. "The record business is appearing like a desert," he told HipHopDX . "But the music has a life if you look at it right."
Prophets of Rage — Chuck D's new band consisting of Cypress Hill's B-Real, DJ Lord and Rage Against The Machine's Tom Morello, Tim Commerford and Brad Wilk — is featured, in addition to Ice T and others.
The 13-track release follows up 2015's Man Plans God Laughs at a time when America's political landscape couldn't be more ripe for the Rebels Without A Pause. Consider your Fourth of July playlist complete.
The full album can be downloaded here , or streamed below.
Nothing Is Quick In The Desert comes as the band celebrates its 30th anniversary. Full track listing:
