INDK - Livin' With L.E.S

[stupidddkiddd]

ey, i guess if all you got to sleep on is a cold slab then you won't have to worry about bed bugs!

[jefferygiraffe1]

Why do they keep changing band's they all sound the same, beside's Star Fucking Hipsters.

[1225echurch]

@jefferygiraffe1 its called progression of time homeboii. and different members wanting to do different things.

[BLACKdahliaMURDER66]

god this song makes me smile

[monieloveism]

This is one of my favorite songs, it reminds me of when I lived between Jacob Riis Houses and Wald Houses and would fly down Avenue D on my bike and down the Williamsburg bridge staring at the Masyrk Towers .. kind of filled my eyes with tears when I first heard this song.. the LES was so real it was the working class struggle and then they just gentrified it to push working people out.. I guess we can't all live there.. but it was like a little peace of heaven.. someday someday we will takeback

[zosothedestroyer]

@monieloveism best comment i've ever seen on youtube, i went to new york for the first time a couple months ago. Went straight to avenue c haha, would of loved to see it in its prime

[deadfordays]

[CareerSoldier201]

fuck giuliani!

[Pawsz]

oh yeh,

[crizzack101]

its all about how its said. are you kids basic?

[RiseAgianst88]

i love criminals,i love crime!

[NYpUnk914]

this is an INDK video how the fuck did it start a conversation about the word nigger

nigger means like moron or stupid(my guess) white people use to call blacks that back in the old world bcuz they thought they were superior

[FuckFacts]

Lol... "Negro" means "Black" in Spanish/Portuguese, and comes from the Latin word "Niger". Hateful people rarely have good imaginations.

[kaosstar]

Shut up niggers

[PutinWurst]

if you can't the word nigger, chances are you are a idealist liberal idiot who is so uncomfortable on the subject of race that you can only point fingers and you probably don't know any black people. Same with the word faggot. It's a word, if you are not a homophobe, you aren't a homophobe, saying a FUCKING WORD DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING! btw, this seems really unrelated, so just listen to the song. so fucking good.

[Marxinator]

@PutinWurst My sister is black and a large portion of my family is as well.

[LeftoverVictim0666]

@PutinWurst It's mainly context that defines the how the word is meant to be taken. But they're still hateful words with bigot origins. Just don't say them and you won't have to put up with the rest of us "liberal idiots who are uncomfortable on the subject of race"

[PutinWurst]

True, if only intention were all that mattered, but then again there's the tendency to misunderstand each other. The fact is though, nigger is being changed and is a huge part of black culture, in a positive way. It's as if by using it themselves they take it's power away, and change it into what they will. They can't deny their past like whites can, so in my view and the view me black buddies who i've talked to in depth about, we limit communication. nigger is just a word.

[telltalemse]

no its not that saying the word is bad. cuz if not its like "dont say the F word" lol. but the thing is that im sure theres a lot of people who will feel offended by the use of the word nigger or fag. im bi and if someone called me a fag id feel offended because i know that those words have very negative connotations. i mean its not exactly a compliment. one thing is to say things to a friend as a light thing but the word is a word and it has certain meaning to certain ppl in my opinion.

[Wesley296]

@PutinWurst perfectly said.

[xcolepx]

@PutinWurst or you're not a racist homophobic piece of shit. fuck you. ska fucking sucks too.

[FuckFacts]

@xcolepx "You know, I'm not PC, I'll shoot your kid at school cuz he's gonna' grow up to be a fucking asshole just like you." Clearly Stza is a child-killer because he moved his mouth and vocal chords in such a way as to pronounce words about killing children, because words and actions are one and the same. amiright?

[ZwrotPL]

@PutinWurst Exactly. I'm a white Nationalist, but I do fully support the "crust" lifestyle.

[allwittynamestaken]

@ZwrotPL fuck racism and DEFINITELY fuck nationalism, the idea of "race" was created as a product of nationalistic imperialism to give an excuse to brutalize natives and enslave africans and discriminate against irish, poles, jews and other "non-ethnic whites". the irish and the poles are no longer considered non-white because the very definition of white resides on the interests of capitalism/government

[twitterfire]

@allwittynamestaken fuck you faggot

[allwittynamestaken]

@twitterfire well fuck you too homophobe. have a splendid day :D

[ZwrotPL]

@allwittynamestaken The very definition of Jews resides on the interests of capitalism/government. People associate racism solely with the "white" race (even though there are native 'whites' in plenty of parts of Eastern Asian, but the Jewish people are more racist as a whole than Europeans. The Poles and Irish were only demonized because of two countries overrun with Jewery, Germany and England. The both of which, I claim NO affiliation. Nationalism is not 'bad'.

[allwittynamestaken]

@ZwrotPL jewery? I'm no zionist (palestinian myself) but race for the most part is a social construct. for example, here you and ceasar chavez are considered completely different races, in Brazil your considered the same race. we considered french and english to be of the same race but in Europe they're considered seperate. its all in your perception. I'm not saying there's no difference, but what defines difference and what entails that difference is fairly subjective.

[ZwrotPL]

@allwittynamestaken Jewery is work of the jews. I get that it's pretty different for everybody, but it's still important never the less.

[ZwrotPL]

@allwittynamestaken I could go on for more, but I was stuck with the 500 character limit. So I apologize for the abrupt end to my comment before I was really able to make half a point.

[thebigcisme]

@PutinWurst nicely said

[Kryptochron14]

marxinater shut the fuck up. i look in the comments to hear opinions of other people who listen to this type of music, not hear you bitch.

[Marxinator]

@Kryptochron14 Relax man, it doesn't seem like you have much of a problem with bitching considering that's what you're doing. Take a chill pill.

[allwittynamestaken]

@Marxinator nice name

[ThePariah13]

of course sturg, stza knows em lol its ezras side band lol

[lookit87]

Hip Hop is great and all I just wish it was mostly consisted of the true rappers that speak truth, Immortal Technique and Wu Tang.

[Mennismervice]

yeah immortal technique is sick. I went to one of his shows on his recession tour and he can spit out the truth man....

[Marxinator]

@Mennismervice I have trouble listening to Immortal Technique for the sole reason that he's a homophobe. Anyone who uses the word fag is a piece of shit bigot who has no place talking about social justice.

[Mennismervice]

when did he use the word "fag' or faggot".???? none of the songs he played had those words.....

[Marxinator]

@Mennismervice The song "Industrial Revolution" is one that I know of- "and that's the primary reason that I hate yall faggots I've been nice since niggas got killed over 8-ball jackets." Another problem I have with Immortal Technique is that he's a steriotype, he's trying to do things for social justice but presents no image other then the steriotypical, violent, macho, aggressive Latino male. You can't expect people to change their attitudes if you embody a negative steriotype like he does.

[Mennismervice]

i get what ur sayin and yeah ur right macho is stupid. Im gonna ask him if hes a homophobe myself cus it kinda seems like in that lyric hes mad but not pointing the fingers torwards gays but stupid people even though it is wrong to say it cus people mostly put it torwards the gay community. .....

[Marxinator]

@Mennismervice My comment on his macho tendencies was directed at how violent, angry and aggressive he is all the time. Being an asshole doesn't further any causes. And about the word, the problem with it is that it's a derogatory term. He could have just as easily said "niggers" or "kikes" or "spics" or any other term in place of the word "faggot" as far as I'm concerned. The fight isn't just against racism, it's against homophobia, speciesm and sexism (among other isms), they're all connected.

[Mennismervice]

I think I know that i was just making a statement so please stop going on a glory parade on how good you are to the gay community just because you don't use the word "faggot". Just another word in my opinion I don't use it... I might as well say "goopashopishittymuthauracunt" and some one is going to take that as a derogatory name in the future just like many other words that used to not have bad meanings but changed to prejudice terms......

[Marxinator]

@Mennismervice Relax man, it's not that big a deal. Take a chill pill. Faggot is just a word of course, but the social implications of using it are negative. You wouldn't listen to a band that had lyrics like "that's the primary reason I hate you niggers" or "...hate you kikes" or "...hate you spics" or any other derogatory slur would you? Plus, Immortal Technique's music relies on him being a complete macho dick (it seems to be his theme). Also, chill out, don't be so easily offended.

[mattatack9969]

The word was used as a reference to something else. He's not a homophobe. Stza used the word faggot too and they're completely against homophobia.

[Marxinator]

@mattatack9969 Regardless of context (for the most part), the word is not acceptable. When did Stza use it (I'm curious)? Also, musicians should be held accountable for the ideas they embody (may I sight the "Don't Blow Bubbles" thing as an example), even if they aren't homophobic, if they make it seem like derogatory terms are ok then they are part of the problem. Like I've said, the word faggot should be thought of like any other slur from nigger to kike to spic.

[mattatack9969]

That's what I think of it. I'm just saying that word just like other slurs is just a word that many people are not really offended from whom it applies to. Stza used it in "Gay Rude Boys Unite"

[Marxinator]

@mattatack9969 In the context of that song it's different though, just like it's different to use the word nigger when you say "saying the word nigger is wrong" then when you ligitimatly use it as a slur. People shouldn't be offended as much as intellegent and critical of the use of the word, feeling offended, like feeling angry or sad doesn't really do much good.

[mattatack9969]

Yeah, but I honestly think the context in which Immortal Technique uses it is not offensive. From what I've heard, it was a reference to a movie (Pi I think).

[Marxinator]

@mattatack9969 Pi is an interesting movie, very Lynch inspired, but I don't understand the reference (I'm not saying there isn't one of course). Ignoring his use of the word faggot, I don't like Immortal Technique because his manner of violent, aggressive, macho gangsta rap is played out and silly (also it perpetuates negative steriotypes about Latino and Black males), but that's based on my personal philosophy and my musical preference. I'm not a fan of aggression, violence or machismo.

[reedisamonk]

I totally agree. FUCK THIS "O I'm beyond P.C., I'm just being ironic."

Just don't say the words, they ARE NOT nuetral and they reproduce the very systems we're trying to get rid of.

[Mennismervice]

lmfao! "the word is not acceptable" looks like we got  fascism on the text board!

[KohlKorruption]

Dre Dog and Mac Dre but i only say them cuz im from the bay area

[allwittynamestaken]

@lookit87 *cough* Dead Prez *cough*

[BigPapaSmurfy]

[Kryptochron14]

good job, you met somone who knows somone else. that obviously makes you TRUE w/e the fuck you were talking about . and "what does moshing have to do with INDK?" you think people wouldnt mosh to this shit? people mosh to Leftover Crack. stop defending yourself and admit defeat, get yourself some brownie points.

[punkhippe]

[dudeguy7251]

[gilu93]

I say this many a time

Underground hip hop is the black version of punk

[BigPapaSmurfy]

Not all rap is gangster rap. Underground rap is very political.

[plzstopbanningme]

IMO INDK is better than MG

[BranditoPslym]

I'm going to have to agree with this statement. Ezra is a genious

[zipzapzop93]

[gilu93]

QFT :O

[crassisdead]

@cgrind666 INDK is like the best crack rock band.

[Dem640]

[Dem640]

@crassisdead yes, yes it was only an exageration and a little joke

[crassisdead]

@Dem640 Oh, I see.

[Dem640]
