On the subject of music

Take a look at Lenon Honor's videos.

He has compiled some very nice observations on Rihanna's Umbrella. Eye opening stuff right there.

After watching his films, I have never looked at popular music the same. All of the music on the radio has a hidden meaning behind it. Sometimes its so obvious its like... -_-

Really nice find. He is a great lyricist! Especially a lot of information given at once!

I am a rapper myself. I'm working with a Producer. Together we are named S.V.

Be sure to check out our music: www.reverbnation.com/salkinvictory

It might not be as dense with information as Beast1333, but it definitely has some great messages as well (I believe).

We have 4 tracks at the moment which will be a Demo and some the titles are:

City Lights, Hallucinations, Escaping Propaganda & Lost Integrity.

So you can see where we are heading! Take a listen guys, let me know what you think!

We are currently progressing on a new Demo CD which will be about energy!

Also, good to hear people like proper hip-hop here! (; .

I don't know which artists have already been mentioned here, I'm using dial up internet & everythings taking too long to load for me to check every post...

Somewhere in the OP it mentioned supporting music that talks about ATS topics and I just want to recommend the following album...

"Jedi Mind Tricks - The Psycho-Social, Chemical, Biological, and Electro-Magnetic Manipulation of Human Consciousness"


....JMT, on the other hand, leaves this anchor behind at the mothership and floats off into a Twilight Zone of sorts with sci-fi lyrics dealing with spaceships, Atlantis, and ancient prophecies.
JMT is composed of two members, Ikon the Verbal Hologram and Stoupe the Enemy of Mankind. Yes, those are their names so you know you're not dealing with your average street thug/MC. Providing lyrical reinforcements are The Lost Children of Babylon, whose style is right in line with Ikon. Rather than go into greater detail describing their lyrics, I'll simply let the lyrics speak for themselves at this point. Here are a few lines of typical JMT material for the reader to chew on:

So where you gonna stand when the Ehlohim return, seven great sages throughout the ages say you burn/ it's my turn to shine, I'll redefine the crystalline-biological structures implanted in your mind

Speaking my name is blasphemy, so call me your majesty/ majestic phonetics begin affecting reality/ religiously I mystically chant and recite on mics at astronomical heights guided by the northern lights

The plot thickens, the psychological crucifixion, I part red seas and travel landsliding Christians/ My rhythms, escape the earth in certain crisis, I create raps for Christ and twelve righteous tribes

As you can see, far from your everyday, run-of-the-mill material.

Immortal Technique - Revolutionary Vol.1,2 & 3

and this song-

Kurious - Wake up Ft. Venessa Liftwig

his myspace

My favourite verses:

"Hey mr. officer,
can I just talk to ya?
I ain't no snitch I got some good advice to offer ya,

Sit back and just relax,
stop acting like its war,
protect & serve to keep the peace according to the law,

And even better yet my man you need a cigarette?
between you and criminals who you thinks the bigger threat?
see me i say it's y'all but really its about even,
don't give me excuses and tell me its about eatin',

Its a good job get a pension after 20 years,
dudes get b.s drug charges and do 20 years,
i meant no disrespect yeah i spent time on the block,
its wrong to celebrate whenever one of y'all get shot,

There's just so much tension you know you're representing,
a quite corrupt force that uses power as a weapon,
you only human got a family, wife and kids,
but that badge is compromising our right to live"

this is the only one available on the web apparently, so full lyrics below
does anyone happen to know what the first part of this is?



its only 3 months out
And I still cant believe im leavin
Out here on the railhead sweatin
Loadin these trains on the weekend

And now for the first time ever
Its startin to sink in
How far were fittin to fly away
And my family, might not ever see em again

Cause this year could turn to forever
Where we’re headed
Plus what to expect I have no idea
So for anything im ready

Tryin not to see the stress building
In the eyes of my family
But everyday is more weight forem
And its getting so heavy

They collapsing under the pressure
Of the situation we all facin
Me im trying to remain calm forem
Though inside my hearts racin

Got the worst on my mind
Though these thoughts I try to replacem
And I don’t even know if im comin home
But I tellem… im gon make it.

4 hours before my flight now
tears forming on our faces
and for these last few hours
reality can no longer escape us

told ourselves this wont happenin
now its happening and we cant change it
so in these last minutes we say bye
to say hi a year later.

V2
Look I was madder then a mother#er
Sadder then a mother#er
3 days before my exit
I guess im trapped up in this #er

To a
Future unknown and I say damn I really hate it
Cause I know if I was to die today they’d
Go find myself a replacement

Gave me more of a reason
To ask god and myself why
But I was saved by my manhood
Stayed in tact didn’t let me cry

Made me more of a man
Knowin the normal couldn’t hack it
Feelin like im Jordan or something
Risin above and beyond the #in average

Equipped with anger for any stranger
That tags along thru my journey
No goodbyes to my family
Addin pages to lifes story

Slowly and surely
Closing up all unfinished business
Dead all my affairs to the rear
Cause my social life now is finished

And with god as my witness
Im not the only one that’s goin thru it
And I’ll never be alone
Cause my comrades is goin thru it

Addin gas to the flame
Knowin life it isn’t fair
But really pissed me off the most
Is half my country didn’t even care

V3
Kiss my
Family goodbye its time to load these planes
4 duffel bags for the next year
all I got to my name

only 4 changes a clothes
and every outfit looks the same
got this rifle slung on my shoulder
with 7 loaded magazines

on my way over to the last place
I ever thought I’d see
Where they tell me its millions of people
That need me to set em free

So in exchange for they freedom
I put my own life on freeze
And leave everything I love
To board this plane for overseas

Knowin some of us wont make it back
But that’s the gamble we take, And we handle it
Cause we are soldiers
And we play the cards we are handed

However they fall, Let fate call it
Cause for war there is no planning
And some of the things that’s gon happen here
Yall will never understand them

But just remember
This is not you here standin
And while were gon pray for each one of us
Like we were part of your familiy

And whatever fate we are handed
Know we took it like champions
And for those of us who will fall
Never let our memory be abandoned.
