Public Enemy’s Flavor Flav will soon make a leap into the world of food and liquor with two new business ventures. TheQuietus.com reports that Flavor Flav made an announcement about his upcoming ventures prior to a Public Enemy show earlier this week.
Among the two ventures is Le Flav Spirits, a liquor line that will consist of a number of flavored liquors including bubblegum and sweet tea vodka.
“Yo, check this out. I want you all to keep on the lookout – it should be on the shelves by January – I’m launching a thing called ‘Le Flav Spirits,’” Flavor Flav explained while at the pre-show event. “I’m comin’ out with a cherry vodka, a berry vodka, an olive vodka, a sweet tea vodka, a bubblegum vodka and grape vodka. Also, I’m comin’ out with ‘Le Flav Cognac’ and ‘Chateaux Le Flav’ which’ll be some bubbly. Champagne, that’s right folks – Poppin’n’drinkin!’”
Lastly, Flavor Flav hopes to compete with the Kernel himself by opening his own fried chicken franchise.
“I’m also launching FFC – ya’ll heard of KFC right? – well this is FFC, Flav’s Fried Chicken. The Colonel better watch his back, G! The Colonel might end up in my fryer,” said the rapper.
While Flavor Flav spoke on his upcoming business ventures Chuck D explained that the group will soon head to “the motherland” for a handful of shows and workshops.

…waits 4 somebody 2 call Flavor Flav a Coon becuz he likes bitches and money and I’m also waiting 4 some insecure Black person who has no clue to say something to tha effect of “he just set black back 1000 years” or “why is he killing P.E.’s legacy”… i know it’s comin soon, this shit just went up. i’m sure it’ll pop up somewhere [4 no reason]
you said it all for me homie lolol at least it’s recognized
PEACE
flav really is a clown ass nigga.
he can do what he want’s but this is stupid, even for him.
whut are u talkin about. he’s makin’ money (big money at that if it really jumps off like that).
but don’t answer that, just read it and pretend u didn’t see it becuz it’ll be pointless 2 go back and forth about some other nigga’s money.
hes the only black man ive ever met who i think deserves no money and respect. fucken clown.
Can’t wait for Professor Griff’s next lecture to talk about this shit…Flav’s Fried Chicken! Mmmmmmm!
Griff is too busy running away from his arsonist baby-mama and David Otunga.
He should get his ass kicked for ever mentioning J-Hud’s family like that.
I want to try the sweet tea vodka!
How is getting money off of shit that black people like cooning? If thats the case then there are ALOT of Asain, Arab, and White coons selling us the shit WE LIKE AND BUY. People grow up. I would rather a black man sell me QUALITY chicken and liquor in MY HOOD than that of someone from another race. It’s not being racial but we need to support our own people instead of crabbing off each other. I SMH when we a quick to give other races a pass for doing shit that we would crucify a black person for doing….
u should put this shit on a t-shirt and sell it on every hiphop/black website possible for $10.99 and make a killin’ off of it and educate our people at tha same time. i’d be your 1st customer asap!
He’s making money off of stuff we like, but why out of stuff that reinforces stereotypes and f**ks up people’s health? If is not coonery definitely is not a moment in black history either. I’m not knocking his hustle, in fact I hope he targets, his product to more than just Blacks if not he’ll be pretty much exploiting Blacks just like Arabs, Asians, and Whites do and that’s the word that describes what those groups do to Black people.
I dont think you know what “cooning” means. He is dictating a stereotype that we didnt create. I never knock a persons hustle, but the problem is that we(Minorities) can only hustle chicken and liquor. Id’ve rather him sell stuff that people can go thats not gonna degrade the community even further. If he so straight with it, lets see where it opens up at. Bet it won’t be in an affluent neighborhood. But “they” know the puppet can string, and the lemmings will follow. SMH

somebody told me last week that Flav said this when PE performed in Raleigh in early September. I asked the witness if Chuck D did a face palm
I love chicken I Love liquor whats not to like about this
wow, unreal. what a huge fuckin big ass group of stereotypes rolled up into one big coon-faced mess. he gon’ have his own line of menthol cigarettes too
Who didn’t see this coming?
Coonin’? Who don’t like fried chicken? These same people criticizing Flav will tear up a box of Church’s and a bucket of KFC, so what’s the problem?
tell ya. For the almighty dollar people will sell their standards, morals, and dignity. What happened to Fight the power, 911 is a joke, terrordome, and black planet Flav. guess that was all just Chuck D. I never knock a persons hustle, but the problem is that we(Minorities) can only hustle chicken and liquor. Id’ve rather him sell yogurt, or coffee or something. lasts longer, and has more money in it. but “they” know the puppet can string, and the lemmings will follow. SMH

if you’re black and you still let wicked white people from foreign times ago dictate on whut u can do and don’t do with pride in 2011 then you sir/maddam Are the Coon.
i’m sorry but i’m not gonna let some bullshit ass (make believe) stereotype that no1 actually feeds into/believes fuck up my appetite and partying. I’d eat a greasy ass fried chicken wing while sippin on some Hennessey right in front George W. Bush and all of them in a heartbeat just becuz.
Honestly, if u feel that Flav has ever done any Coon shit (flavor of love 1-6 and all) then u let White people play on your minds all too much. Fuck em, if they wanna joke I can joke too, y’all should move on and stop gettin in y’all feelinz about shit. If ML-King Jr. was alive right now and opened up a McDonald’s Fried Chicken I’d be the 1st in line. I love chicken and liquor, and tha fact that Flava Flav sells it is a plus. lmao! y’all got all y’all oppression locked away in a small corner (a liquor and chicken corner at that) lol.
100% co-sign!
So when you hear white people crack jokes about black people and chicken you have no reason to get upset then.
Damn quick on the coon bomb y’all. Fried chicken is bomb as hell and so is liquor. Both bad for my health, but it’s my choice to eat it or not. I don’t have to and neither do you. Let the man make his money. I’ll try them both when they come out, I doubt I’ll replace them with water and good (healthy) food overall though.
they will also be carrying orange & grape sodas and selling black & milds at the counter
this is funny because a friend of mine once said he wouldn’t be surprised if he saw flav advertizing fried chicken and watermelons all in the same damn commercial.
Coonin or not… can’t knock his hustle. Flav has a lot of mouths to feed.
NIKKI MINAJ IS THE HOTTEST FEMALE MC IN THE GAME RIGHT NOW AND HER ALBUM “PINK FRIDAY” IS HIGHLY ANTICIPATED AND IS SET TO HIT STORES 11/22!!!!YOU GOTTA CHECK OUT THE VIDEO TO HER SMASH HIT “RIGHT THRU ME” EXCLUSIVELY HERE>>>>>http://assets.umrg.com/widget/nickiminaj/rightthrume/widget.html
Fucking walking talking stereotype..
Fucking walking talking stereotype…
OK im white i love fried chicken and malt liquor. I still think this is (sorry!)This is Mad coonsih of flav. But again he needs to get some publicity since PE begged to get funding from fans to even release a album
Nobody ‘begged’ for anything. Fan funding will be another system that works as much as you paying on your cell phone bill.It will work for many artists we again just showed the way. Either its funded from corporations or the public. And about Flavs chicken and spirits. I dont eat or drink either, but he does. And judging by this board you’d think he was selling crack, which many heads strangely accept. The journalist who wrote that probably was inline at the bar where 95% of the people headed to when the venue opened doors. Funny eh?
He opened the chicken and liqour store in Iowa Chuck…There arent many people in that state to begin with so I doubt even 5 percent of the 95 percent you think went there even did. Good job keeping up the public enemy image too man. Maybe PE should release a new album and update the classic “fight the power!” jam to “join the power!”.
I like the vodka flavor idea (sweet tea, bubblegum?) & the champagne, but he’s gotta compete with Jigga & Diddy- and both have some good liquor goin around, so he’s gotta bring his A-game. Not feelin the chicken one though; Popeye’s keeps me covered there.
2nd that about the Popeyes. Fuck KFC.
clown!
On paper Public Enemy is legally Chuck D and Flavor flav.
This means 1/2 of the worlds most so called “Conscious” rap group is composed of a crack addict that sells liquor.
And this is suppose to be the “smart” people in HipHop
Man Flav is so opposite the message of public enemy. I mean Chuck D does everything to advance black people and flav does everything to regress our people. Fried Chicken and liquor? Are you serious? Not to mention that Ghetto Flavor of love BS. Why is he still affiliated with PE?
real talk!
real talk!!
real talk
It’s Undercover Brother in real life!
The man slipped him some mind control serum! Somebody find Smart Brother, he’ll know what to do!
Sincerely, Conspiracy Brother.
amen
Wow, I just listened to 1 Million Bottlebags just the other day.
All he has to do now is be ordained as a minister and open up a church, and he’ll have all of his bases covered.
Life imitating art….Flav can dress up in Billy Dee William’s military get-up like in “Undercover Brother”…cue the back up singers! “Flav’s Fried Chicken, It’s butt kickin’!”
umm…was I supposed to be shocked that Flav is pushing fried chicken and liquor..the shocking thing would be if he hadn’t done this..lol
And You Thought 911 Was A Joke!
copy that!
P.E.??? = R.I.P.
how did chuck let this happen?i grew up listing to PE just to one day see this in the news.dahm what a sad day for yall black folks
Can’t knock the hustle…. but it just had to be fried chicken and sweet tea vodka huh? LMAO
Flavor Flav, wow you are now officially out of Public Enemy in my mind. This is just sickening. This is the total opposite message that CHUCK wants to send out to the world. YOU SELL OUT FLAV. CHUCK D is the man, but Flav just doesn’t care about fighting the power. RIDICULOUS!
you my friend is lost in the game. So basically, you’re saying, don’t buy from blacks. Go in any damn store in count how many black owned drinks there are. There’s no black owned chicken franchises. If u black,u need to shut the fuck up.
Come check out the lastest in hiphop, rnb, reggae, dancehall, reggaeton, zouk, kompa, bachata and more at http://www.xclusivecity.com Updated daily!
damn yall hate too damn much!
a lot of black folks like fried chicken, so what? why’s that so wrong for Flav to want to market that food? we dont diss an asian who wants to open up an a chinese restaurant.
fried chicken’s good — i grew up in the south, and southern people know their food, how to cook it, how to make it taste right.
i wish the best of success to Flav
So dont say shit when white people say all black people like fried chicken then.
and white people don’t right. Do this sound stupid: All white people love chicken. Stop the hate.
Flav was always the comic relief of Public Enemy..you silly ass kids talkin about “black people”..black people don’t even support PE no more..that’s the sad part you idiots!!!..last time I checked they were not many blacks in Iowa..so what’s the problem? Flav aint the damn President!
Silly ass internet Kids..Flav got about 10 kids to support..what yall want him to do? when was the last time you clowns went to a PE show or bought a PE record..they had to raise money to record their last project because you silly ass kids don’t know your ass from a hole in the ground!
their are plenty of black folks in Iowa. I’m black and live in Iowa City. Just not in the small meth head towns. I don’t get that stereotype of black people eating chicken. Every time I go to kfc I see all whites.plus if we was the only race smashing chicken it would cost $20 for a whole one.
because its mostly white people in Iowa, dumbass
Biggest nigga moment EVER!! WHY FLAV? What happened to “Fight The Power”? smh damn lol
That sweet tea Vodka sounds good tho. I doubt Flavor Flav will get the backing for a food franchise, well maybe. Anything can happen in these times
@illactivity23
@ tee dogg arent many blacks in iowa? maybe you should check yourself again. Clinton Iowa has a growing population of blacks and if you read local news they are raping and killing our white women. ie Kelsey Stahl and Angel and Cyrus. Read our news and see why this is a problem. He is working with the Ciminos and everyone knows they are shady people. You are telling me an ex crack addict and a mobster are doing legit business? Hell no. This is an outrage for our area.
if it is such an outrage for our area, why are there a ton of people waiting outside in the cold to get some chicken, when they can literally go next door to kfc and get some? He is bringing jobs to the area, even if they are minimum wage, who cares, every little bit counts.
Flavs really doing a lot to bust black stereotypes. 10 illegitimate kids, flavor of love and now this? Maybe next he’ll come out with his own line of blunt papers.
bucket of crap syndrome.
black people cant stand seeing another successful black person.
haha boondocks
Hey you fuckin bitch suck my cock
Like a strip club where these niggaz suck my cock
Tell all my fuckin haters to suck my cock

Because I SUCK COCK EVERYDAY BITCH!
Your intricate and lyrically skilful freestyle has given me a huge, angry erection.
What say you come over and battle my cock?
dude looks like wezzy dad and whoopi is lil waynes mom
i agree
It’s not the fact that he is opening up a business. The problem I have is that he is opening up a business using the “black sterotype”. Why couldn’t he open an electronic store or anything that breaks the sterotype. Or actually have a passion of opening up the chicken spot… I would bet any amount of money that some white man said “hey flav open a chicken spot in IOWA”………………………CHUCK D SPIKE LEE AND BILL COSBY PLEASE TALK TO THIS “BLACK MAN”
this is exactly like undercover brother…when the general decided to open a fried chicken chain….woww it actually happened in real life thats really scary………smh
Flava Flav is a coon for this shit. SMFH. lol!!! The different flavors of vodka will sell though. Also why he set up shop in Iowa? That’s an odd place to sell fried chicken and vodka.
Do yall drink P-diddy drink? that dude finna be a billionare off his shit. If Flav stuff taste nice, don’t hate. The crazy part is that everybody loves chicken,unless u a plant head.
So for those of you who didn’t know, he has a culinary degree and restaurant expierience. He was doing this in his own home, then vegas, and now iowa. not like some “white guy” just told him to open up a chicken shack in iowa.
So Flav isn’t as stupid as I thought he was. It’s a method to his madness.
You don’t need no culinary degree to make fried chicken.
Yo, is he really callin the chicken place Flavs Fried Chicken..FFC…thats bitin KFC hard…VH1 reality shows(except celebrity rehad) are the down fall of western society
I can’t believe some of you guys are defending him. Real talk, when I saw the headline I thought it was a prank. He’s a coon. End of story.
Another black man profiting off of the misrepresentation of his race. I hope he finds his 30 pieces of silver.
the comedy central roast of flavor flav was the funniest shit
fuck off you stereotype
Why is it wrong for Black People to like chicken just because white people have a problem with it? I love chicken, there is nothing wrong with eating it, white people eat, Cornel Sanders (KFC) is very white and has his picture on the box. So Please dont hate on a black man for loving chicken. If I had to buy chicken, I would definitely rather buy it from Flav.
So please dont let stereo types make you ashamed of being black.
DON’T BE STUPID like I was.I thought signing up my friends would me make me rich, but then I
left them alone and pulled in almost $450,000. NOW THEY’RE PISSED OFF!

You have to be a stupid business man to open a no-name business right next to a successful franchise. Selling the same product with the same name, ha.
