Immortal Technique

[Doormat]

Good rap is rare these days.

 

The only music I used to detest was rap and country (country still).

 

So this was the hook (along with Fort Minor) that got me into rap.

 

I guess "underground rap" is a much better genre than that gangsta shit.

 

Immortal Technique has harsh rapping and often offensive lyrics. But the lyrics are meaningful.

 

For example: Dancing With the Devil, is the most horrible song I have ever heard :/ (

)

 

Notable songs:

 

Revolutionary Vol. 1

 

The Poverty of Philosophy (this is almost like a lecture) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhjfg_5cMc8

The Point of No Return

Death March

Reverse Pimpology

Crimes of the Heart

Remember listening to Dance with the Devil once a while back, which says it all - as a person who listens to fuck-all rap, it still made enough of an impression that I can remember it.

[borntohula]

it is good rap, but i can't understand how fort minor is in the same category.

 

check out prefuse 73, busdriver, and cadence weapon.

Immortal Technique is fantastic (all I've heard is Dance with the Devil and a few other songs though.) Wu Tang is also decent, and I like GFK's solo stuff.
