Immortal Technique is woke af

I have feelings

metal is almost purely right-wing tho.

tech is probably the reason why im leftist

bunch of humbug TBH, fam.

Immortal Technique knows more about socialism and the struggles of the proletariat then you ever could. Read his lyrics you obtuse trash-talking ass kid.

Fuck off cunt. Thats a load of shite.

Aside from the fact that reformist politics like social democracy and radical utopian politics like the type associated to the shirt he's wearing are both a part of leftism, of course.

prove me wrong.

Holy shit all these years I thought Mos Def was saying "swow", not "wild". The egg is truly on my face

But you made the claim

ITT: Rappers that really make you think.

I have never met a right wing metalhead. They listen to some edgy shit but it seems to be, as they say, just a prank, bro.

Well, you can look at some of the most popular Metal bands like there Metallica and Megadeath who both espouse right-wing talking points outside of their life. Not to mention that a genre typically infused with violence, destruction and murder goes hand-in-hand with reactionary thought.

hopsin is a great rapper though.

t. /metal/

Burzum is far from typical metal.

Also, euronymous was an edgy ultra-tankie.

You still have to prove your claim. All my metal listening friends are socially "liberal" (IE they dont give a fuck about if youre gay or not) anti-government types.

Just wish he wasn't such a homophobe. Other than that, he is definitely class conscious. He repeatedly tells people in some of his songs to pirate and spread his music.

Is he a homophobe, or are you crying about him saying faggot?

who gives a fuck, liberals took care of "gay liberation" a long time ago

I was largely shitposting, but I do think metal attracts more right-wing people than other genres given its song-writing and themes, anecdotal evidence isn't a counter-argument.

Anecdotal evidence is valid against statements without any proof or argumentation.

No its not at all, only when paired with sound valid arguments is this the case. unless the premises are true and they faithfully lead to a true conclusion, it is nonsensical to think you can rely on anecdotes

Have you ever met a metalhead though? I want to know if you live in a right wing area and they're right wing, because I'm in a pretty left area and they're left. It's hardly a life or death topic and it's just a conversation m8

Mate, you can't take the moral highground on what is and is not valid argumentation if you are the one making a baseless claim.

Foreclosure of a dream is not a right-wing song. Megadeth , specifically Dave Mustaine, might have what could be interpreted as right wing opinions put down and out Dave Mustaine is not right wing in the traditional sense. Libertarian at best. Strong distrust of the government sure. But in the same boat as people like Steven Crowder? no fucking way.

Believe it or not class consciousness can cross both sides of the spectrum what you do with that consciousness that defines left or right. Maybe this is what Marx called false consciousness. Either way it's clear Marx listened to Immortal Technique

My brother is a metalhead and he's an ancap, other then that no.

Ah, youre americans. Well there is your problem.

What the fuck are you doing shitposting here?shouldn't you be trying to educate your Idiot Brother to the fact that he's following literally the Fedora of ideologies?

kill yourself immedietely holy shit

Love him as propaganda but he is a bad rapper and these people are right he's cringey as fuck. At least his content is good and direct even if the lyrics are bad, it's not like bad lyrics about being friendzoned and all other black people being dumb and mean for calling me a dork in high school (see: Hopsin)

The Coup is better

I'm a leaf though.

I did, but he still believes in spoogy human nature. He told me about muh glory days of capitalism during the 50's, which made my sides go to orbit.

are you telling me he isn't a good rapper?

...

me again, hopsin is a technically competent rapper with little to no taste for beats, but that isn't the worst thing about him, pic related and coelhoesque shit like "Fly" is

He's a great rapper with a lot of skill. But I hate some of his meme-tier lyrics.

I agree with him on the subject at hand. That Hopsin is bad.

Grindcore and thrash are almost exclusively left wing genres.

Lol ur dumb kid

get this pleb out of here!

Once in my mid-teens I met this metalhead from upstate Sweden, the brother or homie of this white trash chick's dope af neighbour. Got crunk with him and never met him again. I hope he's okay. Weird how you can be friendly with a human and then it's like the dude never existed ;__;

Hopsin stole his contact lenses from Meth and Busta, then he stole whyte boi M&M's flow. The dude is one of those black kids that grew up white. Poser got his style out of the lost & found box.

I just realized Hopsin is a child

This is bullshit, just because some prominent bands are right wing doesn't mean metal as a whole is.

Example:
youtube.com/watch?v=MTiZ7f3jEhM

He isn't a good rapper.

I'm pretty involved with metal, and while most metalheads are apolitical, there's certainly some right wing presence in some parts, not as much as liberals say there are though. There is a good amount of left wing metalheads though particularly in the grind community.

You have never listened to napalm death. Seriously though if you think metal is inherently right wing look at grindcore. The genre was started by an openly left wing political band.

Thrash I wouldn't say so, but grindcore most certainly is.

Just now?

Immortal Technique's lyrics are a quarter leftist and three quarters "AIDS WAS INVENTED IN A LAB TO FLOURIDE THE FROGS!".

This. YAYMURICA revival thrash bands are dirtying up the leftist streak of the genre.

I'm Immortal Technique I'm obnoxious

Got hella people tellin me to stop it

Jk I like tech

I'm a big hip hop fan, and while I don't listen IT on the regular, I have a lot of respect for his work - even though he occasionally slips into conspiracy theory tier shit - unfortunately he is brought up semi-frequently here and a bunch of autists call it cringe because they don't like hip hop or at the very least don't understand the culture.

He's 32 in a few months.

Good for propaganda tbh

His flow is bad and he's a bit too preachy. Beyond that I like him. Still waiting on his new album.

Trump_Wrong.mp4

Yeah I don't follow him on Twitter but like a handful of his songs

I'm a huge fan of his work, but yeah he does get too conspiratorial. Alex Jones level sometimes. But this does not negate the overall message. Listen to
youtu.be/MeE3-rOG7i4
And tell me this song isn't the hardest anti-capitalist hip-hop song.

Dumb Bordigist, neck yourself

I would prefer someone with actual leftist critique instead of 75% alex jones of the left tier conspiracy trash.
Also Hopsin has been saying all this shit the whole time, and has some of the shittiest generic beats and "I try hard to imitate eminem" flow.

I'm sorry but you have the music taste of a middleschooler.

Hopsin also has some of the cringiest middleschooler tier cultural analysis and has had it for years.

Hes a liberal.
Just look at his race politics.

...

lmao

/leftymu/ thread? /leftymu/ thread! Post deep cuts!

But this is all that we get?
A debt that's not even met?
While futures crumble to class
this feudal system wont last
See explosions of fury
Masses hung by the jury
Voices too strong to tame
We'll leave the old world in flames

bump

Just gonna toss IT a bone and say the conspiracy stuff is mostly cool sounding and has been in rap music for a long time. You're not supposed to take talk about zionist lizard people seriously though I guess it is hard to see things that way after what happened to Holla Forums.
