This is pretty old by now, Immortal Tecknique is underground and this would never be played on radio so I dont think it is mainstream.

I absolutely love Immortal Technique.

One of his songs specifically says "We keepin' it live, we keepin' it live, burn it of the *snipping* internet and bump it outside!"

I STRONGLY suggest "picking up" his albums, Revolutionary Vol's 1 & 2, and The 3rd World.

This man speaks great truth, layed under a flawlessly thought out delivery.

Absolute genius.

And Arsenis..of course its not going to be mainstream, have you heard any of his lyrical content? You think the FCC would allow any of this to be heard by the mass-public via radio?

Oh i know, I love his work and as you say the FCC wouldn't allow it, but my response was to the OP since he was talking about the featured artist, but the song is from Immortal Technique.

It seems like the Conspiracy theory about our government being behind 9/11 is going main stream. It's kind of funny even rappers now are tlaking about the conspiracy. How long can they really keep this a secret when almost everyone is asking questions.

Although it seems to be going mainstream, it really isn't, it is still a niche. I remember watching an episode of Law and Order where a onspiracy theorist is one of the killers while at the same time having a twist, what pissed me off was that all conspiracist were portrayed a lunnies. Thats a nother story though and I think it was SVU.

as for Immortal Technique, he has a lotta songs where he talks about goverments taking power and mistreating their people, I am a rock dude aswell but love underground rap, their rhymes are intelligent unlike commercial rap.

I agree... I am a die-hard rock and roll fanatic.

Something about his delivery and similes though.... just screams 'lyrical genius'.

Also the fact that he's completely doing his own thing... producing and recording under his own terms and conditions...

I cant have anything but respect for the man.
