7:59Now PlayingIn this flashback, Professor Griff addresses being felt like he was "thrown under the bus" by Chuck D for Anti-Jewish comments that he made in an interview that got a lot of attention when New York's Village Voice picked it up. Griff explained that Chuck D didn't want him out of Public Enemy, but he says the heads of Def Jam, including Russell Simmons, put pressure on Chuck D to kick him out of the group. When asked about ultimately getting kicked out, Professor Griff said that that's something Chuck D "has to search his heart" about, which you can hear more about above.
