Flav participated in Public Enemy not as a rapper or vocalist of any kind (vocals were mostly done by Chuck D), but as the rap band's drummer.????
Flav is an important vocalist in da group, though Chuck D uses to be da main one. Flav only raps shorter parts in many pieces but is da main vocalist in a few cut in every record. I saw PE live ten years ago and he didn't play drumms.--Erri4a 23:46, 12 Oct 2004 (UTC)

shouldn't the title and what he's refered to be changed to "flava flav"? flavor may be what "flava" is suggesting, but his nickname was "flava" not "flavor".

The name in the credits of the records, in the Fight the Power Live video and the lyrics that mention him uses to be Flavor Flav, or sometimes just Flav.--Erri4a 00:01, 11 Nov 2004 (UTC)
For instance, you may read Cold Lampin' With Flavor's lyrics at PE's official site. I'd never read that Flava Flav name before Wikipedia. Did Flav use it anywhere?--Erri4a 14:01, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)

the story on flav,,,,,,

cant do nuttin' fo'ya man

flavor flav rapping himself on this track, pretty good you should check it out

I thought that Flav lived in Los Angeles, not Las Vegas. I don't know for sure, though. Still, he's such a well-known figure in hip-hop, I might someone might as well check. I might.

"straight up"?

While the article states that Mr. Flav always had his clock set to 12 or 6, both his pictures show them showing some random time (presumably the *correct* time). So, just remove the "straight up" reference? - Kamagurka 13:06, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Flavor of Love

Where is the information about the outcome of the show coming from? I was telling one of my friends about the band Magazine one day and we were watching that show the next. I want to be sure that's correct before I bring it up in conversation and look like an idiot down the road. Pimpalicious 02:54, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
