The 'TRUTH' in Hip-Hop.....

[james777]

Why do all the Artists that speak the 'truth' about humanity get 'black-balled' or killed???

Take this for instance;

[Immortal Technique]
I pledge no allegiance, fuck the President's speeches
What the industry did to 'Pac they did to Jesus
Rapin' his vocals and destroying his message
Tryin to deport us if they can't destroy or arrest us
Government front religious, but thier heart is empty
Like a televangelist preaching out of his bentley
Calling abortion murder in a medical building
But don't give a fuck about bombing Iraqi children
Talking like units in the fucking libretto
Look at their mansions and look at your suburban ghetto
The gulag, the new hood where they send us to live
Cause they don't give a fuck about none of our kids
That's why blacks and latinos get the worst education
While devils run america like "Birth of a Nation"
Affirmative action ain't reverse discrimination
That shit is a pathetic excuse for reparations

[Chorus: Immortal + KRS]
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)
Tell the truth, nigga

[Immortal Technique]
They say that terrorism revolves around the Qu'ran
But that's stupid, I'll show you why its totally wrong
Cause if this country was invaded and crumbled
I'd turn Harlem into a columbian jungle
And I wouldn't be fighting for a Christian nation
I'd be fighting for survival from extermination
I wouldn't fight for Fox News, them racist niggaz
I'd be fightin for the hood, for the faceless niggaz
I'd be fighting for the immigrants america loves to despise
Even tho it needs them to make the economy rise
They feed us genetically modified garbage
So I repetitively reload the cartridge
Boston, New York, down to Atlanta
Guerilla war in the swamps of Louisiana
Camera panoramas of hammers couldn't rock me
East coast to West coast you can't stop me
And fuck Schwarzenegger, his pops was a nazi
And it runs in the family so run for the grammys
Run to the coon picnic and try to pick up a mammy
But half of y'all are faggots tryin to pick up a tranny
Eddie Murphy ass motherfuckers goin commercial
Even Interscope is gettin pimped by Universal
But the Bin Laden slush fund remix just worked you

[Chorus]

There is a lot of truth in these ~32 bars~........so why haven't 'YOU' heard of him or seen his videos???

He's just one of many!

[thoth]

Love Immortal Technique. Non Phixion are hot too. Jedi Mind Tricks are decent as well.

[james777]

THOTH;

Ya ya, I'm glad you're gettin' the message. I think if people were made more aware of this 'undaground' movement, they would feel more empowered to speak out, because throughout history, 'MUSIC' has been a key influence for change and awareness.......

never a big fan of it, but i sometimes enjoyed hip-hop untill the new millenium broke. then it turned into the biggest pile of shit that could ever be created, ever.

black men are kept at bay by having their mouths shoved full of white and bi-racial women, money, and fame, and by letting them think they actually have a place in this world (referring to the NWO's plans of ethnic cleansing).

[james777]

that's why it's important to dismiss all the 'bullshit' and find the 'truth' in it.......

[eternal_spirit]

It was created by the Illuminati to programme the kids, fill them full of hate, pimp women, settle arguments with guns, make them lust after a life style like the Illuminati funded rappers. I think it was rival drug gangs..... pimps and gangsters who killed 2 pac or whoever not the CIA. No musical talent what so ever sampled computerised blips and drum machines truly abominable. Some of them just rehashed dedicated researchers works and added them to their lyrics probably to reach a wider audience.

[midwich cuckoo]

I heard that track before you posted the lyrics James777 and I must say I was baffled!.

Like most rap tracks I can't understand a lot of what is being said, most rap music is to fast for me and when you add accents and slang words it's usually impossible for me to get the whole message.

Being almost totally deaf in one ear doesn't help I suppose. This is why I mainly listen to instrumental music, mostly techno, and I mean real techno, underground detroit stuff :)

So thankyou for taking the time and posting the lyrics, it's much appreciated, I can now listen to the track again and fully appreciate what's being said!. :)

[midwich cuckoo]

...No musical talent what so ever sampled computerised blips and drum machines truly abominable...

I have to disagree with you there, I myself am a techno artist although I can confidently play a few instruments, drums, guitar, bass and keyboards. Nowadays I choose not to.

To me it doesn't matter how a sound is produced, the only thing that matters is if it sounds good and that takes talent :).

But I guess it all comes down to your taste in music.

Yes what ever you like does you good.

In my mind ..takes alot more creativity and practice to put music together by playing instruments especially to be original when so many styles have allready been created and copied before. I've been playing for almost 30 years it's taken me that long to develop my abilities in some areas.

You could learn to use a computer and sampled music in the space of a few weeks. Almost anyone could do that. I agree it takes talent to sound different than the norm

All what I've heard(hip hop dance etc) doesn't compare to true musicianship as i call it lol (playing a musical instrument)

I'm getting off the issue again haha.

[midwich cuckoo]

Ah now! when it comes to using samples, I agree, anyone with computer knowledge can do that. I do not use samples except for the odd vocal now and again, very rarely.

I prefer to program everything from scratch. ;)

[james777]

no problem midwich............

......i know what ya'll r sayin about the music not bein original and not having musical talent as far as composing goes, but I mean lyrics here......it's real talent to string together similies and metaphors while exposing the truth and ridin' the beat.

Yes james guess that's what hip hops about words more than the music, soz for sounding like a **** just my opinion. You got a point about them getting across a message it's another way of waking people up, just a different way.

[soundthief]

eternal_spirit i appreciate your stance and its fair dos.


the thing that really riles me up most about Hiphop is that its persistently purported as black music, when in the beginning it was everybodys!
its a damn shame the illuminati have seized it for its vocal potential and distorted Hiphop into rap music without changing the name(Hiphop being MC'ing, DJ'ing, Graffiti and Breaking(dancing) with Beatboxing added later as the 5th element). the biggest reason this has happened if probably Public Enemy. these days you have idiots like MC Serch who have The White Rapper Show on the TV(which disgustingly enough has been taken on for a 2nd series).

eternal_spirit, i amnt trying to convince you into liking or agreeing with Hiphop, but for ur info it all began as a DJ'ing thing with an MC rhyming over the top of the DJ mixing together diffirent records, to hype the DJ up, with the DJ being the star everybody came to the party/club to see. the MC later evolved into a reckonable vocalist and attention then later grew upon them and i spose you could say that the MC ego was gradually born where upon the music was then based around the MC instead of the music being a DJ'ing activity, if you like. so essentially Hiphop really isnt what it was in the beginning. its all about rap these days in the mainstream, probably more accurately an image slinging together some simpleton penmanship purported as poets to be more accurate actually! DJ'ing is underground, coz its always maintained its skill and never been meddled with by the powers that be because it isnt made up of words which is the primary form of communication.


yep - anybody with a computer can manipulate samples and sequence some stuff, but it takes talent, vision and skill to make it GOOD.


peace.

It is humbling but true that most 9/11 truth songs are hip hop and there are hundreds of them out there. This is mostly because hip hop is not controlled by big corporations and has a huge underground following - a lot of them don't compromise their truth for single sales. Anything like that I applaud, because they have the courage to do so.

My favourite songs are

I love these songs because they motivate me into acting rather than just mouthing off about the evils of the world. The videos are amazing in each of there ways and it gets the truth out there.

here are loads more songs

good to see hip hop heads here. immortal tech, wu, pac, sunz of man, gza, rass kass, lcob etc are good acts. common, guru/premier, a lot of the old stuff like native tongues etc. hip hop is the peoples music, it started off as the voice of diasffected, oppressed people. now its the number 1 making music machine, clothes, tie ins etc.
