 Public Enemy announced recently that they've raised enough funds, via Dutch website SellaBand, to record and distribute their upcoming new release.
In a statement on the SellaBand website, the group revealed their excitement and thanked fans.
"We just received word that our fund raising campaign has completed," Public Enemy said. "This is truly a great moment for us and we owe it all to our fans on SellaBand -- our true 'Believers'."
Public Enemy originally aimed at raising $250,000 to drop a new record, but after the "recalculated" things, they dropped their goal to $75,000 for the recording, marketing and promotions costs for an entirely fan-funded release.
Details regarding the forthcoming release were unknown at press time.
But, by reaching their goal, the group has proven that alternate ways of getting their projects released are out there.
"We're over here in Europe killing shows. Moscow and Sofia are in our rear view mirrors and we've got a lot more on tap," P.E. said in their statement. "We're going to be celebrating this with our fans, so we hope to see you on our winding road. Thank You."
