the best political rappers are talib kweli and sage francis
period
as ive said it before the problem imo is not that IT criticizes the goverment. theres nothing wrong with that but i cant understand how can he glorify bloody-handed dictators. there may be some(or a lot of) problem(s) with the US gov but stalin, saddam and castro are much worse.

And they fight the US goverment as the evil axis it is..
These countries he gives shotouts to, they are the face

thank you man that is a bold statement. now if you excuse me i will put on a shield to protect myself from biased people who will proceed to call me a dickrider.

As said earlier, he has the right to criticize the government, but look who he gives praises too. The biggest terrorists in the modern world's history. End of story
Re: Is Immortal Technique a douche?
And by the way. Immortal Technique isn't racist. He said
My enemy is not the average white man, it's not the kid down the block or the kids I see on the street; my enemy is the white man I don't see: the people in the white house, the corporate monopoly owners, fake liberal politicians those are my enemies. The generals of the armies that are mostly conservatives those are the real Mother-Fuckers that I need to bring it to, not the poor, broke country-ass soldier that's too stupid to know shit about the way things are set up.
In fact, I have more in common with most working and middle-class white people than I do with most rich black and Latino people. As much as racism bleeds America, we need to understand that classism is the real issue. Many of us are in the same boat and it's sinking, while these bougie Mother-Fuckers ride on a luxury liner, and as long as we keep fighting over kicking people out of the little boat we're all in, we're gonna miss an opportunity to gain a better standard of living as a whole.
...
So in conclusion, I'm not gonna vote for anybody just 'cause they black or Latino they have to truly represent the community and represent what's good for all of us proletariat.
Viva la revolution!

Like in his booklet he give a shoutout to North Korea, Iran, Cuba, ect. and then talks about how there's no freedom in America? WTF this guy even give a shoutout to Iraq when they fucking test chemicals on thier own people. Like yo, Bush might have a fucking up soc. sec. plan but, that's fucking disgusting to kill your own people to test weapons used to kill another countries people. Then he's tripping on this communist shit when its like, faggot, if this country were communist you wouldn't have a fucking career. Then he has the FUCKING NERVE to say the only black people that are rich are a few "token blacks" that white people allowed to be rich in the public eye. Come the fuck on man, my parents are african immigrants that busted their asses and fucking suffered to be where they're at today but somehow it was white people that got my Dad his masters degree when he was still learning english. THE FAG'S NOT EVEN FUCKING BLACK. This dude has the nerve to BITCH and BITCH about the USA but the faggot hasn't made an attempt to move back to Peru and bitch about a government that really needs it. Then he glorifies Castro like he actually didn't fuck a whole country over, but if i were a refugee from that country that had to float here in the middle of the night on fucking pieces of wood tied together hoping i won't fucking die an minute while leaving my family back in one of the most repressive governments on the planet, then get to the US and hear this douche, I'd kill him. I'd seriously kill him. Immortal knows the reason he's living here instead of Iran, and needs to shut the fuck up cuase he's wasting his talent. Anyone agree.
You're not ready for tech, try early 90's Will Smith .....( cough) token!

Belfalo, please read this. You seem to hear only what you want to hear. You quote Rza but then what about "Peace Saddam/www.mastakilla.com" - Masta Killa or where Raekwon refers to Wu Tang as 9 Bin Ladens. Raekwon has also made various comments gloryfying 5%er's and various dictators. Is that not glorifying? Or is it just that your a wu fan so they can't do anything wrong?
Don't hand pick your quotes to suit your argument. Look at the whole and then answer cuz I can hand pick quotes and argue for hours but it won't mean anything.

not in the countries he praises
and to the person who said Why doesnt the US fuck with North Korea and India, cause we Would get blown up. Well North Korea's country and culture is based off of hating the US and we are allies with India
But he's from America. He doesn't need to worry about the law of the countries he praises. All you seem to want to say is that Immortal Technique is not American cuz he praises other countries. How the fuck is he not American and more importantly you are not the judge of who is and who isn't American. You can't tell someone what he is or isn't cuz you don't agree with him.
I find your point of view very contradictory. You say that the US is better than other countries cuz they can't speak over there yet you want someone to be censored? Doesn't make sense. Fact is simple - IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE IS AMERICAN AND WELL WITHIN HIS RIGHTS TO SPEAK UP ON WHAT HE SEE'S. There is no lawfull way for you or anyone else to shut him up or have him deported from America.
And explain please why North Korea hates the US. Check a unbiased history book and see.
Re: Is Immortal Technique a douche?
Lets take a look at the New Orleans situation to see how good the US gov. really is. As long as the media was covering the devastation it was all cool with them and they didn't give a fuck, no one came and no one was sent. As soon as the population starts to whisper this is wrong, how come no ones been sent out? Is it cuz its a black town? Then the next thing we seen Condoleeza Rice packing food for relief packages. Can any black person say to me honestly that this kind of shit with Rice all over the news is not insulting to their intelligence? The gov. thinks that minorities are that dumb that they can be left to die and then they just put up a token black politician on tv putting packages in boxes and its all good again. That just plain insulting.
Democracy implies that the population is well informed enough to make an educated decision on the gov. it elects. So which country in the world is a democracy then? Cuz the media has its spins on brainwashing folk, the gov. is covering up and people like I.M. who have s different perspective to the majority need to be censored due to the wishes of the better off. Its just all hypocracy and thats all. We have people who believe racism is now irrelevant. Damn someone somehwhere is doing an excellent job for Bush.

I'll only give you two example of terrorist act by the us.
Do you know the CIA are responsible for overtrowing the democracy ellected social president Allende in Chili? They put Augusto Pinochet in power and maintain him for years. Do you know what Augusto did? He did it with the US's aproval.
In Vietnam, They told them they could get anelection to decide if they want a capitalism or communist country. When the date for the election came Washington decide they couldn't afford to let them vote cuz the communist party would have won. So they send GI's to train the facism's military and tons of weapon to fight the majority's will. They did it so they wouldn't lost hands on Vietnam's ressource.
And maybe they didn't kill more than Hitler but they were still making bizness with them untill 1941, even knowing their anti-jews law
Re: Is Immortal Technique a douche?
Immortal isn't praising non-democratic state, he's only down with their people... And in a way it's more as an image to say fuck america.
You're acting like killa beez's Killarmy didn't sang they got a war plan more deadlier than hitler and that they wwill make terrorist act against america.
