Give It Up (Public Enemy song)

"Give It Up" is a song by American hip hop group Public Enemy, released in August 1994 by Def Jam Recordings as the first single from their fifth album, Muse Sick-n-Hour Mess Age (1994).

[1] It was their highest-peaking song on the US Billboard Hot 100, reaching number 33.

Tony Cross from Smash Hits gave 'Give It Up' a full score of five out of five and named it Best New Single, writing, "'Give It Up' is about destruction on the street: fighting for self-respect and unity against the evils of crack and gratuitous gun violence.

This could only be carried off in such a homie party style by a band as masterly as this.
