abstract:"Rebel Without a Pause" is a song by hip hop group Public Enemy and the first single from their 1988 album, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back. The title is a reference to the 1955 film Rebel Without a Cause.
Hugely controversial, the initial Bill was blocked after a mammoth filibustering exercise involving a speech lasting several hours by the then Labour MP for Cardiff West, Rhodri Morgan - the original rebelwithoutapause.
