  • in all my years as an american i have always wanted to go and join the protests on wall street but having no job and no car of my own i have to settle with debating and protesting in my current economic times class and no thats not the real class name thats the basics of wat we talk about were my teacher tries to convince us the economy is doing just fine and dosnt expect us to watch the news and and read the newspaper and this is y our school system is terrible

  • love it

    

  • basin = sink

  • I downloaded his album... and yet i feel bad i cant actually buy the thing :(

  • what was that weirdo in the gas mask weird since they are supposed to be protesting about a bad economy 

  • @Ironstonez listen to the song again dude

  • @1Diaphanous just did and still dont know why that guy in the gas mask was talking about nuclear stuff

  • @Ironstonez because he was trying to point out that Nuclear power is leading us down this road, its a part of the problem, its killing us and the planet, its a dangerous form of power. Produces radiation and tons upon tons of toxic waste that gets pumped into oceans, lakes, rivers, ponds, sea's, forests. When those nuclear power plants in Japan went off look how much damage they did... now Image that times 200,000. Basicly its just a way of saying lets find a new power source.

  • Obama can ruin anything just like he ruined our state

  • @PETEnKALEBvids Pretty sure 8 years of Bush did that. Don't get me wrong, Obama hasn't exactly fixed anything, and yeah, some stuff's gotten worse, but it's not like things were great before either. Shit was still messed up in our country.

  • @TheIshAnt77 True,true well i guess your right

  • The rich tax the poor because they are not poor themselves. Higher tax on lower income rates is an appauling state of affairs that will not end until we stop paying politicians.

  • they didnt destroy spotify anyway. free music streaming.

    

  • i don't believe these cops and all the people beating the good guys up. for all the idiot people arresting the protestors in this video it is stated in the constitution of the U.S.A that nonviolent protest is allowed so take that and arrest it

  • if you dont like this song its because you dont feel it or you are stupid

  • I live in America and everything u say is true bro, i love your music more then anyother rapper in the world, u have meaning in your songs thats what really matters !!!!

  • I came for the assassins creed video, I stayed for you're amazing political commentary raps.

  • This makes me wanna punch a cop

  • @XboxGamesForYou i always wanna punch a cop fucking hate them assholes

  • @bonescapone what a douche you want to be raped by police? What the fuck did your parents teach you? I can only imagine the person who would ever want to even talk to you

  • oh great. now i have to look for conchamolusco's comment.

  • @Flanchester

    I can't believe how YouTube is among the most popular websites, yet its comment-system is horrible.

  • @NilasThomsen why?

    

  • @NilasThomsen yea. they fixed some of the problems once, then fucked them up again.

  • radiohead

  • I'm not saying they are completely wrong. I'm saying that they are protesting the wrong people. They shouldn't be protesting Wall Street; they should be protesting Pennsylvania Avenue. It's the government's fault for over stepping their lines and giving the banks and companies loads of cash. The people occupying Wall Street have a good idea mixed in with many, many, many bad ones. And peaceful protest my ass. Stop SOPA and PIPA.

  • @BonesCapone1 A branch of this movement moved to the White House two days ago.

  • @BonesCapone1 There should have been more strings on the money, but what would have happened if many banks failed and thousands were unemployed and people lost their investments and savings. It was a quick fix, now more regulation is needed. Our government has to get involved in the economy because the ideas of republicans that businesses will regulate themselves is retarded and has been proven wrong

  • Is it me or is this beat very similar to a song by Sage Francis? Has he been of any influence to you in any way, or just a coincidence?

  • I'm not even completely sure what's going on in America but on the pictures it looks like there has been some kind of fucking zombie apocolypse what the fuck is going on?

  • @jani5643 The government has been fueling big companies that have been screwing up to much but they refuse to support anything good and the people have protested but they weren't met with the freedom of speech and expression america is suppose to have instead protesters were met by police in riot gear and billy clubs.

  • The people who went to wall street are amazing i am From the u.k but i respect them greatly. These governments are killing our countrys and its about Time we all fight back lets take our countrys back from theses rich government bastards

  • Capitalism isn't wrong, yeah everybody must have the right to build his own paradise.

    Socialism isn't wrong too, when somedoby talk about socialism, someone else say "You want to live like the Russian in the cold war". No, for me socialism is about sharing, giving, helping poeple around me. Money is not the goal of our life, love must take a greater place.

    I'm not american, but i love american poeple but not their governement.

  • Its not about the 1% paying more taxes or getting a job ows was about money in politics people stfu if you dont even get that. Why does america go to so many wars, has a shit healthcare system, and doesnt care what the people of their country want. MONEY in politics!!!!

  • you are amazing

  • You people are always after America. Canada can say whatever they want but there not nearly as powerful as the U.S. Sure we r having a depression but we've outlasted worse. The people at wall street were just dumb complaining hippies.

  • Personally I found Occupy Wall Street rather, I can't really think of the right word besides silly. They seemed to disorganied and half of them were wondering why the police were harrassing them when they were blocking streets and roads that the everyday people use. They wasted time standing around and yelling when they could have been working for something. They could have built something that gave them a voice, a creditble voice that make the seem the a 2 year old with a tantrum. Good song tho

  • @truedivinedemon but its better than nothing ... people are trying to do something ...

    so that is a good thing because nowadays most people just shut up and follow what they are told to do and suffer ... if in my country ( Brazil) it was like that at least ...

  • I am an American, an EDUCATED American. I'm not going to call Obamacare "communism" because that's irrelevant. I would like to protest Wall Street because the big corporations are screwing us over. But Capitalism is wrong, I believe in donating 7% of every paycheck before taxes to charity. I earn my money, I want to be able to have the things I want and still be kind to my fellow man in need. I think full on Capitalism is bad and full on Socialism is bad, America needs a balance of the two.

  • @bfrosthelp *Capitalism isn't wrong. Sorry about that.

  • @bfrosthelp Ya a highly regulated free market.

  • So emotional....

  • I used to think this guy was cool but then he made this. You shouldn't be protesting wall street. You should be protesting Pennsylvania Avenue. But it never occurred to these dumb-asses that the problem is the government for handing out these bailouts in the first place. And yes Obamacare is communism, the government is WAY over stepping their bounds there. Does the constitution mean any thing to you dumb-asses? The government should not be this powerful. And the whole 99% thing is bullshit. A

  • @BonesCapone1 Jesus, you americans sometimes really make us believe that you, as our prejudices say, really is the most dumb and brainwashed people you could find stuck in one place. Communism?! Do you even know what that is? Do you know who Karl Marx or Stalin was? Do you know the difference between Communism and Social Democracy? Sweden was very successive before we threw our Social Democracy and economic system away in the 80's because of YOUR pressure. You lost, deal with it.

  • @BonesCapone1 For example we have gone from 2% to 10% unemployment and can't export because everything we, AND YOU, make is too expensive for anyone else to buy due to hyperinflation caused by less regulation of banks and no devalueation of SEK. I'm glad to see you as a country go down even though I feel sorry for all those who will suffer. I don't like China or Russia at all but now we might see some balance in the world again. But I don't like that you brought us down with you...

  • @BonesCapone1 I do not think that word means what you think it means...

  • @BonesCapone1 Oh and you might want to check out the line in the Preamble of our Constitution

    "Promote the General Welfare"

    Also everyone on this page is probably in the 99%, you should check out a graph of the huge income inequality we have in our nation

  • Your raps are amazing, what beat is this? Was it produced by you or is it a Lupe Fiasco beat because you credited him for something at the end.

  • Its kinda depressing to watch this

  • Sorry but if you start telling off the cops in your "peaceful protest" your not gunna come out unscathed, don't get me wrong I have nothing against peaceful protests, it's when people claim they're being peaceful and act like fucking morons that I have a problem

  • Comment removed

  • What i love most is that your music is fluid, has meaning, enjoyable to listen to, and isnt just a bunch of nonsense put together :D

  • God fucking dammit Dan Bull.

    I love you so much.

  • @RazorSRaider

    But by America passing the SOPA act its fucking the rest of the world over and also yourself!! How can you stand there and let them slowly take your basic rights and twist them till they can control exactly what you do! Have you read the Hunger Game books? Thats the Capitol for you

  • Here comes the illuminati crowd...

  • The American people arent stupid, now matter how much i wish to think other wise.

    they will find out about SOPA

    They will find out about NDAA

    They will find out about the Corruption appreciation

    They will findout about the crimes of the Bankers

    And when it finally snaps, when the sword is placed beside the throat, when the gun barrel is finally laid between there eyes

    There will be a resistance, there will be opposition

    There WILL be a revolution....

    for no king rules forever

  • @pennyforyou i pray for that, as an un willing american

    (7 proxies, fuck the police)

  • Put past false accusations of America becoming less free, or government corruption, Obama being a bad president. This is a matter of capitalism being unfair, and the republican party messing things up, then blaming Obama.

    Excellent rap as always

  • @ShmoofPHI

    My friend I wish I could have been there when you typed that.

    two great minds think alike.

  • people call america land of the free, but now, nothing in america is free, not speech, not will, not even life, why would you have to pay for healthcare? you technically have to pay for life, america thats just sad.

  • The message, the mix, the rap. Pretty fucking awesome. You got some talent there son :) 

  • Anyone see those comments on yahoo.com news articles? Everyone's like "HURR WAKE UP AMERICA? HOW CAN WE LET THIS HAPPEN?" Well I have news for you, if it was really so bad there would have been a revolution already. I mean really, stop talking shit about all this, we have it pretty fucking good in America, will I have to work at a job the rest of my life? Yes. Will I ever be so rich that I can retire at an early age? Nope. But it's better than dying at the age of 20 in Africa, I love it here.

  • The chorus sucks really bad but the rapping is really good.

  • Before you go and hate on people with more money than you please bote that(at least in holland but I think US to) 1 percent of people pay the mayority of taxes. This means that they're paying for u. But still some of them have sent letters to the government requesting to be able to pay more taxes to help resolve this crisis. I'm not saying a handfulk of people didn't do things they shouldn't have done, but don't be too quick to judge.

  • @Matthijsownt Most rich people don't have to pay taxes at all/They get reduced taxes. Pretty fucked how America works now...

  • @DemijneAmbacht Yeah, but try to whisper a word about tax equality or even progression and they'll yell "Communist!" and kick you in the nuts. Kinda makes me happy to be living in Finland, although our system is not without its faults either.

  • @DemijneAmbacht LOL, you don't think rich people have to pay taxes? Holy shit bro, atleast get your factrs straight... even though they do get reduced taxes, its still a shit ton more than you'll ever pay

  • @RazorSRaider But the percentage is still less than what you will pay percentage-wise, and it has very little affect on them if there taxes are higher money, it doesnt matter to them that they lose more money, but for a poorer person, every dollar makes a huge difference. Why do people think its ok for the rich to pay less than their fare share, everyone else is paying more of their money. Why then are the rich not contributing equally?

  • @Matthijsownt As a canadian who has been both rich and poor, I appreciate paying low taxs when I dont have much money and welcome paying more taxs when im doing well. The fact that americans make money and refuse to pay up for the system that allows them to do it is ridiculous. I love my country, and several others. If I was american I feel that at this point with sopa, and the defence auth act I would be ready to burn down wallstreet much less the white house.

  • @maxxmatt11 Yeah but the sad part is its the 99% who end up voting in whether or not the rich pay more or less tax. Like with medicaid, the government pays for your health care but all Americans can think about is how its related to communism.

  • @maxxmatt11 AGREED!

  • @maxxmatt11 well burning the white house would be treason but wall street will end in a big law suit and probably life in prison but treason will end much worse

  • @maxxmatt11 At least you have the rights to oppose NDAA by saying you'd be ready to burn down the white house. If I'd say that, I'd get indefinitely detained. Obama lost all of my remaining likes of him by signing it.

  • @maxxmatt11 why not do it again back in 1812 we (Canadians) burnt the white house down once, why not again

  • This makes me really love living in canada. What? There are protests here too?

    Crap. Anyone know how to tie a noose?

  • Everyone just hates on America.

  • @Gankinator not everyone, im english and i love America! :D

  • I am the 1% fuck wallstreeters!

  • @Deadislandfan no you aren't go away

  • Comment removed

  • I really loce that you used the instrumentals if Street Spirit(Fade Out)

  • the country is us and not the 1% richs who obviously have the power and send police to stop people from expressing their opinion as they threaten their billions of dollars

  • This vid still has the snow flake thing :P

  • @FXRemastered Like an expendable commodity.

    They even have a term for it, economic unit.

    That is all you are to them.

  • Wanker Ryhmes with Banker...

  • if you put the snow on it is like a violent fairly tale in new york

  • It shouldn't be occupy wall street, it should be occupy the police.

  • @desperado32386 Occupy congress, occupy the fucking white house, occupy ALL THE THINGS till these fuckers get the message that we're SICK OF THIS SHIT.

  • Is it me or are corporations anti democratic in there structure i mean they are usually controlled either by a dictator or "the board" akin to a military junta. I could be wrong

  • @steaney86 Corporations aren't a country, they are allowed to be.

  • @skinlo01 Maybe but doesn't that make us extremely stupid, I mean we think political freedom is a right but economic freedom isn't. I mean just look at Bolivia and Bechtel and how they brought the water rights for rain c'mon by any measure that's dictatorship at its most blatant

  • Bit off topic, but does anyone know what make of gas mask that is at 2:00 ?? I love gas masks and that one is amazing...

  • @FXRemastered So we should all go naked, and revert to caveman status?? there is no other way to get these things, we shouldnt have to not go fordward technologically simply becuase of corporations, lots of people don't even mind that there, its how the corporations treat people thats wrong...

  • ...why is it, and i've seen this on every forum, that when people speak up to help the poor or the rich... the middle class(who is taxed to fund these movements, and given no tax cuts like the rich, or fall-back programs like the poor)are never spoken of and are merely subject to whomever you all want to help... in my opinion, nobody should be able to manipulate anyone, whether it's the rich profiting off the poor,or the poor being aided immensely by the government.

  • @Claycracka

    Part of the problem is that the middle-class is disappearing due to the increasing gap between the rich and everyone else. Wages keep dropping yet corporations are making record profits. Goes with the whole idea of the rich keep getting richer and the poor get poorer. Alot of the now poor people used to be apart of that middle-class.

  • @Claycracka How are the poor aided immensely? Sure they get some food stamps- yay they can feed themselves with some ramen noodles. They get some welfare checks, yay they can afford to keep a roof over their head. Don't believe the lies that Fox news spews. Welfare doesnt give these people a convalescent ride. It gives them money so that they do not end up completely destitute.

  • @Kevin8er95 and it doesnt help everyone if you have gone to jain on a drug charge then you cant even get food stamps or welfare just throwing that in there btw i completly agree with you

  • @FXRemastered So you suggest they make these things themselves?

  • I went to a Occupy Wall Street portest. i met some nice people and it was pretty boring until people acted out in violence later

  • Fucking fascist pigs they beat anyone they can old people, child, pregnant women fuck these police

  • go dan bull you are a hero people need here this keep doing what you do!

  • Fat fucking pigs. I hope each of them die from testicular cancer.

    INCLUDING THE WOMEN.

  • @mat1873 You're an asshole, why would you wish that on anyone? Sick bastard.

  • @GoldenBlockGaming The thing is i didn't wish it anyone.

    im going to go out on a whim here and assume that you think anyone involved in police work are human beings.

    which is not the case.

    see for you to be a human being you have to have the ability of rational thought and/or not have remote concern for other's around them.

    fuck these people.

    they abuse power all to easily. im sorry if my statement affects you in anyway i find it hard to put in words my hate for them.but im not taking it back.

  • @GoldenBlockGaming i grew up in Glasgow in scotland. a place where many many! murders happen and very little gets done about it but the weird thing is police brutality is almost the same as the murders happen often very rarely reported nothing gets done to want to beat the shit out of your fellow man just for a non violent protest which he feels right about is fucking horrible. i happen to know for a fact having seen it with my own eyes.

  • @mat1873 I'm sorry if I offended you. It was just that you said that you hoped for them all to die from testicular cancer, which I thought was a bit extreme regardless of who it was, and my initial reaction was to be angered.

  • @GoldenBlockGaming Ach dinneh matter. You are quite welcome to your Opinion :)

  • @mat1873 You too :)

  • I jumped a bit when I heard that this one had a very classic bit of Radiohead's in it. Instant fav after I realized it actually made sense.

  • listen from 0:56 too 1:23 that is the awsoem thing

  • You people are clueless, to not be blinded to the real purpose of OWS, to get money for nothing. These people do not believe in hard work, do not believe in 9-5 all they want is a $20 an hour job where they don't have to lift a finger and contribute nothing to America. while i support their right to free speech i do not support their communist that they are spitting out , they are not like the tea party, and they are backed by union thugs.

  • @IronmanDC There are many diverse people down there, just as many Libertarian "tea party'rs" as leftists, the vast majority of rhetoric is about reducing the influence these uber rich cunts have on politics, and the widely growing income gap due to the policy they lobby for.

  • The use of Street Spirit makes me happy. Favorite song from Radiohead.

    Fantastic work.

  • i´m i the only one who thinks that the wallstreet movement is angry at the wrong people.

  • @SuperZlatan940 and who do you think we should be angry at?

  • @rezistorXG the congress, their currupt politicians and in some rare cases them self for not having any self control

  • @SuperZlatan940 I guess your not paying attention... who do you think controls congress the corporations, the special interest groups, the military industrial complex if your going to remove corruption you remove it at its source you don't attack their puppets they can just be replaced you attack them directly

  • the police are dicks in this video :D i just want to shoot all of them

  • I'm going to have to disagree with this one, the Occupy wallstreet movement is wrong, its just another case of the poor complaining that the rich are rich, however the way that the american government is reacting is also wrong, they should be protecting citizens from occupy attacks sure, but there is nothing wrong with peaceful protests and for fucks sake protestors are not terrorists, i feel like Wallstreet is the only one who is at no fault here

  • 0:49 - Police brutality.

  • FINALLY! A rapper with some guts!

    We have been patiently waiting in the USA for decades now, hoping that the American rappers would use their wealth and fame and large fan base to make some statements to the world about this generation. but unfortunately they are greedy, selfish, gold digging,sellouts to the music industry. It is as if they don't have children of their own.

    They could make a big difference in this world if they would be brave and stop rapping about bi**hes, and ho's.

    Think.

  • this british blke dan the lyrical man i just discovered is great great backing track ive heard b4

    can someone remind me who the backing track is by thanks well done dan luv your work

  • @BritishBulldog2012 Radiohead - Street Spirit (fade out)

  • Why don't you protest a higher minimum wage, lower taxes and free education? In my city (Melbourne) they are just whiners about "D'aww these people are rich, lets blame them". Seriously though, I support things like what I said above, but half the time I dont even know what these people are saying! Not to mention in their statement they pander to other groups that have nothing to do with it (like PETA). Get it together!

  • @TheZephyrGal The point is reducing or elimination corporate and financel influence in politics. Its not against the rich, its against the rich who because they are rich manipulate politics and the politicians very courses of action.

  • @conchamolusco Tell that to those Communists and Socialists that were there.

  • @ThePayneProductions Its obvious that they are gonna be there, they are dissenting groups on a dissenting manifestation. That doesn't mean its wise to ignore the message, or to think that nothing is worth protesting in such a manner.

  • @conchamolusco Dude I have to quote you!

  • @conchamolusco alot of the protesters are socialist and communist dont give me that media shit

  • @AMilroProduction1 Actually, not that many. Even if they were, you would not be suppoirting them, but the specfic message of taking corporative interest out of politics. Is that simple. Don't swallow the propaganda.

  • @conchamolusco im not swallowing propaganda. What news media or newspaper has said that they are socialist and communists. I have been there dumbshit

  • @AMilroProduction1 I conclude by your omision that you agree with the rest i've said

  • @AMilroProduction1 What news media has called them that? Only the one "fair and balanced" Fox. Im sure thats where you get your news. Be careful man, you swallow too many lies from Fox, and it gives you brain cancer. How else do you explain how fucktarded everyone at Fox is?

  • @thehALmolov2 Do you really think that these people are just lazing around complaining? There's 9% unemployment in America and not enough jobs to fill with people.

  • Protesting because of your lack of money instead of doing a job to earn money.... News flash you don't make money by never doing anything. If you ever want to have money you have to get out there and earn it. The rich all started out at some point with a idea of how to make money and it eventually worked out for them, they didn't sit around complaining about the people who already were rich. protesting like you are is only giving the governments useless trouble and news corporations more money.

  • @thehALomolov2 News flash, there are no jobs in America.

  • @thehALomolov2 So are you saying you don't know any rich spoiled lazy brats who never worked a day in their life because their grandparents were hardworking legitimate workers who strove to the top? I've had my share of dealing with these people and to be perfectly honest there are more rich people like this than there are hard working men and women in that income tax bracket.

  • @Cinchil the point is somewhere along the line the money was earned that made them rich, they didn't sit around being a waste of space and causing trouble for society.

  • @thehALomolov2 I have met people that are rich solely because their parents work their asses off and the kid is a spoiled lazy piece of shit that does nothing but drink and act out, has no job and is a total wastiod living off of his parents income at the age of 25.

  • @Cinchil Plenty of the rich has just abused the system and have gotten their millions through shrewd destructive means. Take Mitt Romney for example, he got his money by buying then laying off thousands of workers and destroying the business. Then they have to pay less percent of their money because they are so rich they can take advantage of having an army of lawyers wiggle them through loopholes. Any talk of raising taxes on rich is then seen as communism. Thats so f-ing crazy.

  • one day things will change for better or for worst.

    one day there will be justice

    and all pigs of the system will regreat

  • Real Song Name? :-D

  • @xCssFunBoyCssx

    Radiohead - Street Spirit

  • Hey, I would give a wall street ceo if you did something with ERB(epic rap battles of history)!

  • godlike :D

    

  • @Eugen19L how true :D

  • Radiohead <3

  • I just think it's stupid how the wall street occupyers are spending there time "occupying" shit when there are much much different and more simple ways to solve there problems. Such as learn what all the rich people did so that they can become rich to!

  • @RosevicTemple go jump off a building you brainless douche

  • Comment removed

  • @RosevicTemple it isn't about the rich people, it is about the abuses of power and how these same people get to continue spending other peoples money in a system that is broken.

    i don't expect you to understand, seeing as you are 14 since you are so young i'll forget calling you brainless too. but seriously think and don't let people think for you.

  • @MrJarth Exactly. That's really what the problem is. I'm glad someone can think on this page.

  • fucking communists >_>

  • @TheSilver1161 A little socialism works.

  • @TheSilver1161 Have you even got any idea of what communism is? I bet you're getting confused with stalinism, while you're not noticing your country is turning to fascism - nationalistic totalitarian socialism - without the socialism and nationalistic part! Only a totalitarian military police state...

  • canadian ^^

  • @GoodStuffEh Lucky.

  • Just because they are protesting peacefully does not mean they are not criminals. There are alot of crimes you can commit with out violence

  • This rap is completely bullshit, how much worse can you sing? The vid's nice but try to work on your lyrics as well as on your opinion. Thinking can be a solution.

  • @MrTds157 British rap is a different animal.

    Besides, I find his lyrics to be pretty damn good. He tosses out the occasional "oh crap I can't come up with a rhyme" lyric but otherwise I and many others think that he does an excellent job.

  • @nhavas Political topics are way harder to operate with in a song. One just needs to learn the ropes before he writes a song. Moreover in rap lyrics are most important to me, if he uses to be geeky, he should go on rapping only about video games, if he really wants to understand himself as a "hacker" (not to be confused with cracker) or a responsible rapper, he needs to understand what he's singing about. It doesn't matter whether he is from GB or anywhere else.

  • Those pictures makes me angry.Why do people do things like that to there own nation? I can´t understand the World anymore.
