Asking Zane Lowe his opinion of Public Enemy is like asking plankton its opinion of the sea.

As with the first batch and his regular playlist, four more of the least adventurous choices he could've made right there, and he hasn't even got the balls to say they *are* masterpieces, just that he *believes* they are. This sort of series should introduce people to less well known albums but it's just trying to reinforce that certain albums are All Time Greats.

If he had any balls he'd have chosen the likes of In Utero, Kid A or Fear Of A Black Planet and introduced the public to back catalogues which have so much more than tjust the albums every self respecting indie kid's downloaded anyway.
