    "comment": "Happy Birthday to clock enthusiast and legendary hype man Flavor Flav! Born William Jonathan Drayton Jr. on this day in 1959\n\n---\nPublic Enemy's third album was the first hip hop album  to be inducted into The Library of Congress’ National Recording Registry in 2004. The Library of Congress praised Fear of a Black Planet for signaling “the coupling of a strongly political message with hip hop music.”: https://bit.ly/3Tmt5oT\n---\n\nFlavor Flav sang this intentionally out of key. Chuck D. explained: \"When you put him in key, it gets syrupy - too close to music. See, when you add noise on top of noise, you gonna tune everybody out. But with Flavor, he becomes the noise, because he is annoying!\"",
