Tech puts in hard work, but it is rewarding. Working Mcdonalds and Wendys is hard, miserable work that can easily be regarded as slavery with minimum wage and absolutely NO benefits. Rapping is a hobby and an art, which if you can meet substantial living standards doing so is nothing to complain about.

is not like he's not doing anything for the ppl with all of his money. "this is my life and my passion; fuck trying to cash in". All the stuff he does is to ultimately help ppl, not necessarily ppl in America, but those folks that are literally left with nothing in many other countries. He uses his talent wisely. He should get his very deserved props/respect for that, how many ppl do u know actually do shit like that?

I highly doubt he really fucks with females like that. You guys look for every little thing..hello, el es humano!

I'm not saying that he isn't doing an honest job. It's highly rewarding work. I can't really feel sympathy for him when I'm washing dishes in a hot, steamy room every day while he travels, party's and performs for a living.

Stop calling women "bitches"...that's not too revolutionary.
Stop voting for Obama...also not too revolutionary.
Stop calling people "fags"...yeah.

To go on with this:
1.  Stop saying nigga.  It's counterrevolutionary.  It's indicative of internalized oppression and it's hypocritical just like everything above.

2.  Drop the crew.  They aren't at all revolutionary and are eating off his plate.  The last time I went to a Tech show I can say that the crowd was rather unhappy with Da Circle, Poison Pen and J-Arch.  All of whom were saying absolutely ridiculous shit like "Who likes getting head" and "look at my chain" all the while saying that the underground was somehow different than mainstream shit.  It was pathetic, so pathetic that when those fat motherfuckers threw their towels into the audience, the audience threw them back.  If you are going to be revolutionary, then everyone you roll with needs to be revolutionary, otherwise you look like a gimmicky hypocrite.
 
3.  Don't alienate your fans, especially those who are willing to do hard work for you because they agree with the vast majority of your message but don't sit there silently.  Don't alienate fans who were busy holding you down on the internet tip, building an actual community in return for nothing, who asked for nothing, and then wipe it all away without consulting them.  People tried to keep this thing alive for 3 + years in anticipation of an album that never launched with no feedback or support from Tech.  The way that this board was killed, and it's quite dead now when compared to it's peak, was absolutely boneheaded.  Tech had a site of over 3000 people, over 200 of whom posted every single day, and he killed it in favor of a Rebel Army forum that turned out to be a pointless wash.  Never once was the community here solicited for feedback, never once were we actually contacted.  Instead we get Diabolic calling people faggots and threatening their lives because they dare criticize the hypocritical posse that Tech surrounds himself with.  This place had the potential to be a hub of actual revolutionary planning and action and now it's dead.  Congrats on that.
 

Quote from:  rebelle
Everyone needs to make a living, how else are you going to pay rent, eat, take care of your family. Millions of others musicians, artists, rappers do the same thing.

Just because millions of other people do it, doesn't mean that it's right.  It's just hard to feel sympathetic to a professional artist who makes good money, enough money to own a building in Harlem with a studio in it.  With enough money to travel around the world.  Yeah, its hard work, but it's more than making a living.  He isn't humble, he says he's the voice of revolution.  If you're the voice of revolution, at least have a crew that somewhat resembles that voice.

Quote
This is a part of being a musician/rapper.

It is if you're just a regular rapper.  It's a little different when you're the voice of some undefined revolution.  I could see if he stopped touring to do truly revolutionary things (like going to Venezuela to help on a workers' commune), but he's not.  He's not even recording music, aside from a mixtape with a mediocre level of thematic unity.   

Quote
I don’t think his views are infallible, he has said in interviews/songs to not take everything he says without researching it for yourself.

You may not think this, but we have had ample experience with many who do.  Read his myspace page, which you do, since you work closely with him.  He has legions of people who look to him as some Che -like figure.

Quote
He is very much revolutionary just for being an independent artist and for not signing with a major label. I won’t even get into charitable works.

This is not revolutionary.  This is the definition of reformism.  He isn't organizing a collective of rappers to fight the system and crush it.  He isn't forming a rapper's union.  He talks a good talk, which we all agree upon, but not signing with a major label isn't a revolutionary act.  It's a smart act.  He still works within the system, he isn't trying to build a truly revolutionary collective whose sole purpose is the destruction of capitalistic exploitation of music.  He isn't giving a shit ton of free concerts to solely win converts.  Hell he isn't even fighting against the obnoxious surcharges that we have to pay when we go to his shows.  Just because you are minimizing your own exploitation doesn't mean that you are somehow revolutionary or that you are changing the hearts and minds of people within the industry. 

And charity is not revolutionary.  It's charity.  If charitable acts count as revolutionary acts, then Tech is nowhere near the kind of revolutionary that Bill Gates is.

Quote
That money is made and spent. How are you going to maintain your business without spending and investing. I don’t know how you think writing, performing, touring, etc. is easy.

It isn't all spent and it isn't all shared evenly among all of those who put in work.  If you are going to spout off socialist ideology then you better be living it and sharing the fruits of the labor collectively and evenly.  Tech makes a profit off of someone which makes him a petite capitalist.  The very fact that it is being run like a "business" shows that the mentality isn't as radical as it could be. 

Quote
You have no idea about what sacrifices other people make.
I don’t know if you have ever had family members or friends rap or ran into rappers and their brothers on the street trying to sell you their cd’s and dvd’s maybe then you would understand and support an artist like him. I’d wish he had more supporters who ever lived/still do in the ghetto.  They wouldn’t be saying some bs like this.

I do know what sacrifices people make.  People who actually do hard ass work every day to feed their kids.  Rappers are entertainers primarily, and I don't have much sympathy for those who struggle trying to be entertainers.  I have sympathy for those people who are workers or those who try to organize their communities so that they can have dignified work that pays a living wage.  I don't have much sympathy for those who seek the adoration of people through their art if they struggle.  This isn't to say that I am not a supporter of those who do art and make music but I have much, much more sympathy for the humble people who do work without any acknowledgment, accolades or fans.  I am going to support the kid who wants to be a worker before the kid who wants to be a rapper because I instantly know that one is humble and the other is not.  That is the nature of the artist.  The artist is always more conceited than the worker. 

But what's funny is that you assume that cats here ain't from the hood, or lived in the hood or LIVE in the hood.   Marcos had a motherfucker put a gun to his head at the doorstep of his house, so go ahead with that shit.  Some cat gotted merked on a corner 50 yards from my house.  But because we ain't sympathetic to the plight of the underground rapper, or sympathetic ENOUGH, that somehow we aren't real fans.  I mean for real, that's nuts.  I have a problem with the mentality of 99% of the cats who want to be rappers because they aren't about really doing shit in their communities.  They ain't really fighting for a living wage, or increased employment or increased communal ownership of land and the means of production.  They are fighting for themselves and their ticket out the hood...and that's not what the hood needs.

Quote
To have to argue against elementary thought shouldn’t even be necessary.
You don’t have to be perfect to be revolutionary.

No you don't have to be perfect.  But don't act like you do not invite criticism when you put on the revolutionary cape. If you do, then you are asking for criticism, you are asking to have your hypocrisies exposed and you are asking for people to analyze you in a much deeper manner than if you were just saying "I feel this, call it what you want to, but this is what I think should be going on"...I am not bold enough to say that I am a revolutionary, because I know that I am not. I am sympathetic to revolutionary causes and real revolutionaries around the world, but we have a tendency, in the US, to think that our reformist actions are somehow revolutionary.  You want to see real revolutionary action, go to Bolivia or Venezuela right now.  Ain't nobody on these forums willing to do that level of work, and if they are, they aren't doing it...Tech included.

he does build shit in other countries for ppl that actually needed WAY MORE than foos in America. Not saying that's not needed in this country,  but there are ppl that really suffer elsewhere. If you were from a 3rd world country, you'd know what I mean.
I do agree with what u said about his crew, I mean, they're coo [some of them] but they're not really into the revolution, even though, someone told me it takes time, I honestly don't see anything positive in that, especially if they making easy money by rapping and all. MONEY CHANGES PPL.

Quote

He actually does some shit like that in a few countries [for starters], not in Venezuela, but he's contributed on helping Indigenous ppl in Peru, and not sure if its in Guatemala o El Salvador. Of course he's not going to broadcast it like most rappers do, HE IS HUMBLE.

He has to start somewhere, obviously, he needs to get money from somewhere, don't expect him to do the miraculous work overnight, it takes time. He does give free concerts sometimes, from what I know, this only happens in 3rd world countries.

let's not fight ppl.. Wink

Thats where he lost me. They where waiting for the forum to be stormed by right-wingers (like they are really that important) but instead they had a few the far left and friends giving critisizm and offering aid, and they couldn't handle that like adults. How the fuck do they plan to take on right-wingers if they cant build with allies? Diabolic is an idiot. Just being around him makes Tech less "revolutionary".

Madonna has a wine. Haven’t tasted it but I bought it for a friend who is a big fan of hers. I have to ask her how it tasted, if she even opened it yet.

Being proactive doesn’t always mean getting dirty in the trenches of war. On a recent trip to his native Peru, Tech spent much of his time cultivating a farm he bought a few years back. On 300-plus acres of land he grows beans, corn, papayas, and other produce with the help of his family and an agricultural engineer. Aside from any financial gain, the purpose of the farm is to give the people more control of their own resources.
“Rather than doing what agribusiness would want me to do–which is to just to sell all my goods to America and then whatever doesn’t pass inspection sell it back to [my] own people–I’m trying to set a different standard down there,” he explains.

It could create jobs and income for people, a percentage can be donated to worthy organizations, etc.

Tech is a hustla, i don't think selling wine is a bad idea, but then again, i don't think it will be popular, maybe among white rich folks. Not too many colored ppl drink wine. He needs to put books out, I kno he's always writing. I think his books will sell.

Revolution? Haha, yeah... revolution is simply impossible in these times of dominant armed authorities. I gave up trying, I'm slowly giving up my "against the flow" mindset, I don't give a fuck no more. We have no voice, you're not heard without the power to control a medium and be able to finance promotion of that certain medium.

Change is slow, especially with the mercantilistic conservative power blocks keeping people tied up and caged.

Revolution happens as a natural process. The stability of the state is loosening and the masses, when reforms fail to meet sustainability, will eventually revolt. I think that revolution is inevitable although at the current moments seems unattainable.

Mobile-friendly version Immortal Technique Biography

Born Felipe Andres Coronel on the 19th of February 1978, hip-hop artist Immortal Technique is a controversial figure in the U.S. His songs speak of the need for social justice and equality among all races, with special emphasis on the people of color or Latin Americans, but they also cover topics such as the fight against unfair imprisonments or militarism and many others.

His biography is hence quite intriguing, to say the least, and, just like the best anti aging cream is probably going to be lingering over the shelves of all cosmetic stores for many years to come, Immortal Technique’s songs are going to remain hot, fresh and sought after for a really long time. Due to the fact they speak about topics which are to be considered taboos, his lyrics continue to be listened to with the exterior shutters down in most homes.

Immortal technique was born in Peru, in El Hospital Militar de Lima; several years later, his family moved to America in order to escape the harsh living conditions in Peru. Even though they could not afford to buy any terrain a vendre there, they managed to move to Harlem in the ‘80s. Immortal Technique went to Hunter High School, but just like a hip replacement recall is never of good omen, his grades and behavior weren’t any good during high school either. He was the school bully, he harassed other students and he was not afraid to get involved in scandals with drug dealers from around the area. And while his interactions with these drug dealers were not as numerous as used cars in Phoenix are, they still managed to leave an ugly mark on his biography.

Plus, his graffiti did not actually resemble any Dreamweaver templates, but he was famous for his controversial acts of vandalism. His violence against others almost got him expelled in 1996, but he somehow managed to finish high school and even attend college at Pennsylvania State University. This time, his college experience only lasted for two years; he was then charged and convicted and he was eventually imprisoned in Pennsylvania.

In prison, just like a SEO San Antonio company would focus on booting a web site’s ranking, Immortal Technique also focused on boosting his own social ranking. He began studying the policy of religious history, and, finding the inspiration he needed, he began putting his thoughts in lyrics. In 1999 he was paroled and, even though he was first considered some sort of Agen Bola, as no one had heard of him at first, he began to attend freestyle battles he started winning.

From there on, his career started to bloom, as he gave birth to albums such as “Revolutionary Vol 1” in 2002, “Revolutionary Vol 2” in 2004 and “Revolutionary Vol 3” in 2008. He also became a political activist and started to sing about political injustice (check out his opinion on the imprisonment of Mumia Abu-Jamal or the songs on George W. Bush). Despite of the fact that his albums might not have gotten the type of positive reviews African mango reviews are usually comprised of, this has not stopped him from getting involved in future projects, including an important film collaboration. He might not approve the work of the CNA Financial Corporation, but we all need to eat, right?

Many travel locations and hotels don't offer water softeners either, which is a problem. If they read some water softener reviews there'd probably be more hotels offering this amenity. Although many hotels and resorts do offer indoor fountains which help provide a nice source of relaxation.

Recently I've been in the market for used cars. Which I'm sure many of you know how long that process can take. Having to go from dealer to dealer and look at one car after another. What a painstaking process! Its a good thing I don't have to take a personality test after the whole process. I'm sure I'd have some pretty skewed results. After finally settling down and buying a new Audi A4, I found out I had a bigger problem on my hands. Where am I gonna park the car during winter?

The History and Growth of Rap Music

If you are a music enthusiast, then it is very likely that you have come across a genre of music called rap music. Rap music is area that has very clear distinguishing features most notably the rapid and rhythmic chanting of the lyrics perfectly timed to the beat and musical accompaniment that forms the base of the song. Rap music traces its roots to the development of the hiphop subculture which predominantly carries four complementary musical styles namely: rapping, dancing and in particular break dancing, scratching or more popularity known as DJing, and graffiti writing which others dub as vandalism. Another sub-element of this genre is beat-boxing which also features heavily in the repertoire of many rap artists. If you thought this was an easy musical genre to characterize, then you were poorly informed: consider, many research papers and doctoral dissertations have been written on the subject of rap music and its accompanying stylistic elements.

The history of rap music, or hip-hop music, is composed of a series of rapid development phases that have all culminated in the popular rap versions of today. Before rap music took off in the 1990s, it was predominantly referred to as disco rap in the late 1970s. The three rappers who had a hand in coining the term “rap music” were DJ Hollywood, Lovebug Starski, and Keith Cowboy, the last one being officially credited with the term hip-hop. Rap music original began with improvisations and freestyle singing to add an element of unpredictability to the songs in parties and other gatherings. Even in the 1960s to 1970s, the initial elements of rap music where already sown in urban subcultures particularly in New York City where adhoc performances in the streets led to a coalescing of influences in the wake of the Civil Rights era. Like the iPhone 5 release date, it had a slow and steady rise building into an explosion of creativity and style that has made it into what it has become today.

At this very early stage of rap development, it was particularly tied to emcee-ing more than it was associated to any specific song. It predominantly tied songs together as an adlib in between. It was born out of the creative inputs of DJs who had to work with self-imposed musical constraints such as the 4/4 time beat and sampling or sequencing sections of other songs to create a smooth flow of uninterrupted musical stimuli. These were eventually married with electronic equipment such as drums and synthesizers, and ultimate melodies to give it that bite and identity. In a sense, rap music artists were basically like a video game designer who had to figure out each artistic component at every turn until it developed into a more coherent musical genre that became the rap music we know today.

The first recorded version of rap music came alive in the early 1980s when DJs decided to make records out of their freestyle MCing. This necessitated the documentation of song lyrics so they do not change during each and every rendition. The age of the stromanbieter for rap music was gone paving the way for more organized chaos. Still, the freestyle and improvisation element remained a part of many DJ interludes as the song goes through certain sections that did not require too much rap singing.

Likewise, as a consequence of the hip-hop records, the influence of rap began to spread faster than ever before. Artists no longer had to travel far to get their music heard. Now, records from New York City and Philadelphia can be reproduced and transported to cities like Los Angeles, New Orleans, Dallas, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., and Seattle among others for people to appreciate and enjoy. This was primarily the reason for rap music’s rapid growth. Like Christmas mini lights, cities formed the nodes through which rap music would spread to other parts of the country. From small beginnings to grand achievements, the birth certificate translation to true stardom took a matter of years for rap music to be realized. Since then, its take-off and rise has been meteoric.

In this regard, it is almost impossible to talk about rap music but not discuss the golden age of rap. This was the era from the late 1980s to the mid 1990s when rap grew at an astounding rate fueled by the creative contributions of many artists from all over the continental United States and in many parts of the world. The primary trait of the Golden Age or Rap was that it was an almost unbroken wave of transformative music with every single pushing the boundaries of the genre. From this age and in the succeeding Gansta Rap age came names like Run-D.M.C., Dr. Dre, Ice T, MC Hammer, The Wu-tang Clan, Snoop Dogg, and The Notorious B.I.G. among others. The list of names can virtually fill a Sharepoint Hive without any problems.

According to social studies published in 2005, teenagers and children are more familiar with hip-hop and rap music more than any other musical genre. Up to 65% of all children from ages 8 to 18 hear hip-hop music on a daily basis, making it their routinary keratin hair treatment session, almost to the point that it has become an intrinsic part of their lives. With the diversification of the genre to include the more stylish R&B or rhythm and blues, it is not difficult to explain how rap music has continued to pervade radio station, TV and movie song line-ups. The marriage of rap and jazz which paved the way for R&B is itself a phenomenon that warrants all sorts of social analysis.

And with its very strong following, it is safe to say that rap music is here to stay. Years from now, when you open your TV on a bright Saturday morning, there’s a big chance you would be watching the next stage in the evolution of rap music, and there’s an even better chance you would be dancing or singing to that tune.
