In God We Trust also features a bevy of homegrown Brooklyn designers. So if you are out in the city this weekend stop in and tell them the twbe has spread the word.

You may ask yourself what does the Public Enemy Logo mean? Or not, but anyway the story behind the logo is laded to rest. Chuck D: “I designed it in 1986. As a graphic graduate, I did it as a combo of two former groups. When the Public Enemy group and concept was signed to Def Jam in 1986, I simply moved the logo from the other dormant situation to PE. It was tightened up for the upcoming ads and album “Yo! Bum Rush The Show” in 1987 by New York artist Eric Haze. For the longest time, rumors had said it was a state trooper in the target scope, but the truth was it was a b-boy of that time where fedoras and Kangols were the hats of choice. I silhouetted E-Love, LL Cool J’s right-hand man, in a fanzine named “Right On” with Magic Marker, X-acto-knifed it out then layed a target scope over it, using Wite-Out within the blackened figure. After some runs through the copier – presto.” Via Pictogram
