Description
Muse Sick-n-Hour Mess Age is the fifth studio album by American hip hop group Public Enemy, released on August 23, 1994, by Def Jam Recordings. The title is a reverse mondegreen of the phrase "music in our message" (emphasizing that their message is more important than the music, rather than the typical "message in our music." Alternatively, it could be interpreted as "music and our message." The album debuted at number 14 on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 56,000 copies in its first week.

By 1994 the rap landscape had changed and Public Enemy's politically-charged style was seen as cumbersome compared to the fast glamor of gangsta rap, modern R&B, and the East/West feud. This did not stop them from pushing the envelope; to the contrary, this is their most progressive record post-Black Planet, featuring live drumming, chant vocals and field-type noises to replace the layers of sampling, with Flav and Chuck rapping at apoplectic levels. Admittedly, there is filler, as the group still has it in their heads to make these conceptual records with regular tracks surrounded by lots of interludes, but more than ever before the line between the two are blurred - a good example of this is the first half of the second side of the album. Additionally, they re-imagine a couple of older songs - The Chambers Brothers "Time Has Come Today" ("Race Against Time") and The Last Poets "White Man's Got A God Complex" ("Godd Complexx") - but make them sound like stone-cold P.E. originals. I completely recommend this to any listener and arguably, this is the last classic record the group released.
