MTV reports that Public Enemy are in talks to produce a full length animated movie based on their comic book.
“The first ‘Public Enemy’ graphic novel collection comes out in May and there is a lot of interest from Hollywood…It would definitely be animated,” our source confirmed. “There is lots of talking going on.”
The irony is that Flav’s already a cartoon, so it’ll be intresting to see how they pull this one off.

If you don’t know who Bill Withers is then go do your research. OK I’ll help you a lil’ bit.

Here’s somethin’ new from the blokes across the pond, DJ Frinkton and the Lovesoul DJs.
“The tape is hosted by all members of the Wu-Tang Clan, and contains interview snippets with RZA and Method Man, that can be seen in full on Lovesoul.TV. The Lovesoul DJ’s state, ‘The RZA and Method Man interviews
were really insightful and we cannot wait to share them. It was great
working with them and the other Clan members to create something very
unique and nostalgic. It’s rich with feelings of great times in
hip-hop.”
