There’s been tons of hype about Prophets of Rage, the Rage Against The Machine/Public Enemy/Cypress Hill supergroup. And last night the band made their live debut at the Whisky in Los Angeles.
RATM guitarist Tom Morello, bassist Tim Commerford, and drummer Brad Will took to the stage for the first time with Public Enemy’s Chuck D and Cypress Hill’s B-Real. They played a bunch of songs from each of the groups’ catalog.
