Yikes! Things are not looking good for Bernie Sanders, and it looks like one of his rally’s may need some new performers. Apparently, Bernie had planned to have Chuck D perform under Public Enemy’s name, and Flavor Flav is not having it!
According to NBC News, Flav hit Bernie with a cease and desist over the weekend, alleging that the rally is using his image and likeness to promote the event. Since Chuck D would be performing under the stage name of Public Enemy, Flav’s lawyer wants to pump the breaks on the performance.
“While Chuck is certainly free to express his political view as he sees fit–his voice alone does not speak for Public Enemy. The planned performance will only be Chuck D of Public Enemy, it will not be a performance by Public Enemy. Those who truly know what Public Enemy stands for know what time it is. There is no Public Enemy without Flavor Flav,” the letter reads.
Flav added a personal touch to the bottom of the letter saying, “Hey Bernie, don’t do this,” with a drawing of one of his iconic clocks.
If y’all recall, Flav left Public Enemy back in 2009, leaving Chuck D as the only standing member of the group. Nevertheless, Flav wants no parts of his image being used to promote Bernie’s rally.
Chuck, however, is here for all the smoke! In a series of tweets, he responds to Flav’s lil’ legal later, saying Flav is REALLY mad because Chuck is doing the show for free! He says if there was a bag involved, Flav would’ve been there.

… last final note the last final note was my last straw was long ago. It’s not about BERNIE with Flav… he don’t know the difference between BarrySanders or BernieSanders he don’t know either. FLAV refused to support @Sankofa after @harrybelafonte inducted us. He don’t do that pic.twitter.com/5Ky9dTnzmd

So I don’t attack FLAV on what he don’t know. I gotta leave him at the crib so y’all trying to fill his persona with some political aplomb is absolutely‘stupid’ Obviously I understand his craziness after all this damn time. Duh you don’t know him from a box of cigars or me either

Spoke @BernieSanders rally with @EnemyRadio. If there was a $bag, Flav would’ve been there front & center. He will NOT do free benefit shows. Sued me in court the 1st time I let him back in. His ambulance lawyer sued me again on Friday & so now he stays home & better find REHAB
