Released in [[1992 in music|1992]], it stimulated much controversy with the songs "Bush Killa" ("a revenge fantasy about the [[assassin]]ation of then [[president]]" [[George H. W. Bush]]) and "Coffee, Donuts & Death," ("a [[cop]]-killing tirade"). It also featured a young [[DJ Shadow]] on production. Originally scheduled for a pre-[[presidential election]] release in [[1992]], the album was eventually released on Paris’ own [[Scarface Records]] after [[Time Warner]] [[shareholder]]s and media pressure prevented then Warner-[[subsidiary]] [[Tommy Boy Records]] from releasing the project. It has been re-released in a limited release subtitled ''The Deluxe Edition''; it was digitally enhanced, reworked, and contains alternate versions. == Track listing == # "The Enema (Live At The White House)" # "Make Way for a Panther" # "Sleeping With the Enemy" # "House Niggas Bleed Too" # "Bush Killa" # "Coffee, Donuts & Death" # "Thinka 'Bout It" # "Guerrillas in the Mist" # "The Days of Old" # "Long Hot Summer" # "Conspiracy of Silence" # "Funky Lil' Party" # "Check It out Ch'all" # "Rise" # "Assata's Song" # "Bush Killa" (Hellraiser Mix) == External links == *[http://www.guerrillafunk.com/paris/sleeping_with_the_enemy/ ''Sleeping With The Enemy'' entry] on * [http://www.seditionists.org/HFh/reviews/047.nj35.html ''Sleeping With The Enemy'' review] * [http://ubl.artistdirect.com/nad/store/artist/album/0,,2879339,00.html ''Sleeping With The Enemy'' album review] [[Category:Paris albums]] {{1990s-hiphop-album-stub}}
