[Ascendaeus]

I'm Embarassed for the stupid niggerz that ain't listenin, And Tech that's gotta deal with all us cheazie whites thatR listenin, imean, it's a cryinfuckin shame man

[killerskee]

@Ascendaeus im black lol

[shogun123442]

@Ascendaeus tech has black fans and anyway why does it matter that just shows that it doesnt matter what skin you are we enjoy the same things

[Sederos]

@Ascendaeus white, black, yellow, brown, red who gives a fuck. I bet Technique doesnt give a fuck what skin color his supporters have and I know he doesnt cause he said so in several interviews. Im white and I love hip hop but that doesnt make me cheesy or a whigger cause I dress casually and im proud for where I come from. Reading your comment makes me think that you´re ashamed of being white

[fleks613]

yo i want that green on beige tech shirt..

[aamix94]

It's amazing that he can perform the entire Frontlines verse live.

[n0cturnalsoldier]

look at all the white kids lol

[GIBBIEsmalls6185]

Whats the news on the Middle Passage!? Dying to hear some new technique shit.

[TheImmortalteq]

@GIBBIEsmalls6185

great news...middle passage is coming out this year! 2011 and he is releasing a free project on october 2011 and a documentary but till the beginning of 2012

[RedNYello505]

Best rapper alive!

[thegame52291]

Slim Shady @ 0:32

[TheRicharBurke]

Is there any iller MC? Honestly, if there is one please direct me there. But I doubt you can.

[dgk3188]

@TheRicharBurke stic.man and m1?

[Galltron3000]

@TheRicharBurke i know man, its like techs the physical materialisation of hiphop

[Hainrich96]

1 person is a conservative motherfucker

[Fuzzymcstank]

4:30, lol look at the fat doucher rockin his tubby head completely off...lol such a fag, sry had to get that shit off my chest like breast cancer

[Fuzzymcstank]

Immortal Tech needs to make his way to california

[xxxmiguellica]

@Fuzzymcstank playing at paid dues festival in san bernardino in april

[faheemthedream2007]

@Fuzzymcstank he did! aha, a very nice guy! talk to him

[creeper021to702]

i bet those kids there dont even know what he is talking about, their just there like OMG its a famous person

[faheemthedream2007]

@creeper021to702 mind you, these people are concious of the lyrics, hence they listen/follow this guy, rather than lil wayne, j-z, and ALL the other fake wanna-be rappers!

[creeper021to702]

@faheemthedream2007 im a revolutionary and i love tech but i can tell when someone is a fake.

[oscgil]

@creeper021to702 i don't think so.. cause first of all, IT isn't THAT famous.. when ppl listen to IT, they're supporters.. cause how else would they hear about his music and shows? the radio.. nah lol

[PDRO4LYFE]

white people will never understand our anger, indignation, frustration and sorrow so dont even try to explain it to them.

[DaFreeBoy]

@PDRO4LYFE

Don't be like - white people don't know - cuz every man even black white yellow green or shit is individual and thinks for himself.. and the one who have the eyes to see the world clearly wouldn't agree with that.. like.. he will never understand cuz he is wit different skin.. that's not the point

[seraph101]

Immortal Technique and Beast 1333, best rappers out there.

[iraqi4lyfe]

@seraph101 I never trusted Beast 1333 theres sumthing that just isn't right about that dude. Hes got dope lyrical skill, flow and I know he says all that "Reverse symbolism" but wtf is up with the illuminati Tattoo on his arm?

[julioshawtylean76]

wow i s like u learn something new in every new interview immortal technique s interview

[tipitdro]

hahaha this nigga said oklahoma! thats where i be! okc, original killuh city,

[creeper021to702]

@tipitdro and this concerns us how mr.original killuh city? you my friend are ignorant.

[HaLfDeAdRevolution]

My favorite MC. (maybe), i love Lowkey just as much.

[Moniquv]

that's right! no dislikes, let's keep it that way people ;D

[marioalosangeles]

did anyone catch that whole crowd at the beginning?!?!?! WTF??? strange crowd for an immortal technique performance.

[espn0616]

@marioalosangeles why a weird crowd? b/c there were whites? why cant white people embrace immortal technique?

[marioalosangeles]

@espn0616 NO not at all, white people can be hip hop too. Hip Hop was made by people who were oppressed, depressed, tired, mistreated and wanted to party to forget about it or wanted to expose it to the rest of the world. White people have their problems too. we all do. All i'm saying is, those dudes look like spoiled kids who have never been to the hood in their life. Tech is an underground Rapper, i would expect more hood foo's to be at his show. that's all i meant.

[pawndominance1]

@marioalosangeles yeah, but regardless of who or why hip hop was created-it shouldnt represent a prerequisite to listen to or become an artist. Like you shouldnt be eliminated from becoming an emcee because you didnt grow up in the streets, or poor. It should just be your skills, as it is with any other endevour. People embrace Tiger Woods(or used to lol) despite his spoiled upbringing becuase of his tremendous skills.

[marioalosangeles]

@pawndominance1 Well here's the problem with that, If you're not from the hood, and you rap about it, then you are fake! If a rich white kid with great lyrical ability raps about money, cars, living with both parents, having all he wants, than the real underground hip-hop heads ain't never gonna respect him nor consider him hip hop. That's pop music with with rapping in it... Golf didn't start in the hood, we didn't even have enough grass to make that shit up. Tiger does not fit in this convo

[pawndominance1]

@marioalosangeles i can see the lack of respect of bein "Fake", or in rapping about something you know nothing about. But if that rich white kid, lyrically, is that great, and isnt fake, he realizes his upbringing and talks about it in the correct manner-i dont think that that gives someone a reason to disqualify that person, just because he was born privlidged. I think its hard to argue that skill or talent, shouldn't be the overwhelming factor that we grade artists by, if not the only one.

[cuadra10lampa]

damn i wasent able to go, so blown, viva la revolucion

[TheFlex21]

he was probably the only artist at Rock the Bells who actually spit real hip hop

[diegoscp]

@TheFlex21 ugh nope....

[TheFlex21]

@diegoscp

who else? was Papoose there?

[diegoscp]

@diegoscp have you seen the line up? Krs One, Lauryn Hill, Street Sweeper Social Club, Brother Ali and if everyone did the same thing Immortal Technique did; hip hop would be boring. Hip Hop is supposed to have a balance and that's part of the reason why Hip-Hop is not too unified like it should be.

Peace

[diegoscp]

@diegoscp now that i read your first comment, everyone spits real hip hop. Dude the line up has legends like A Tribe Called Quest, Rakim, Slick Rick, THE MOTHERFUCKING Wu Tang Clan, Dj Premier, Snoop Dogg, Murs, Ill Bill, Jedi Mind Tricks...best line up ever. Dont sleep dude.

[vildrobg]

@diegoscp

did u just reply to urself?

[diegoscp]

@vildrobg oh crap, thanks for letting me know :)

[ecuaagua20]

and ive heard him say that same damn rhyme at the end like twenty times.....he should end music and get into other shit.....period

[perezcarlos559]

@ecuaagua20 He Said That Rhyme At A Concert You Dumb Shit.! You Hear The Same Music At A Concert But Its Live You Dumb Fuck.! Viva Immortal Technique Bitch.! Hahahaha.

[666ryan999]

@ecuaagua20 nah, go listen to wayne if u dont like this, tech is the best..period

[Evildook]

@666ryan999 why u ridin techs dick? yeh he's brilliant, but he's far off the best. and wot, there are only 2 artists in the world yeh? if we dont like this we HAVE to listen to wayne? pfft! get the fuck outta here, punk ass kid.

[noodlemaister]

@Evildook gimme your top 5 mc's. for me personally, immortal technique is high on that list

[Evildook]

@noodlemaister 1. Akala, 2. Lowkey, 3. Braintax, 4. Black The Ripper, 5. Vinnie Paz.

Tech would probably come in at 6th, the man is a great at what he does don't get me wrong, I'm just sick of these kids riding his dick, he's just a man.

[ecuaagua20]

i used to be a mega immortal technique fan.......its good that he does all this shit now......but the guy is mostly all talk when it comes to music...he kept anticipating his album and getting us all hyped up for "the middle passage" and "revolutionary vol 3" its been 2 years since the 3rd world....i mean come on if your not gonna come out with anything then say so....tell us that your done with new music and your real goal is activism.....much love to his enduring message

[GrimmjowProduction]

@ecuaagua20 Realax bro, he got 1 mixtape of songs he never realised coming out... Middle Passage will hopefully be out in 2011, and Revolutionary vol. 3 in 2012 or 2013... plus he got a bunch of songs he did on other artists albums that is coming out in 2011...

[mickeyprayz]

@ecuaagua20 he's taking his time making sure the message in the music is right...he wouldn't just throw out something sloppy his music is for a purpose. How is tech all talk, he purchased land in south america and gave people jobs on his farm, he built a childrens hospital in afghanistan, in his music he says he wants things to change for the better and i think by doing what he's doing in the third world is backing up his musical message. peace

[ecuaagua20]

@mickeyprayz he is all talk with his music. im just talkining about the music. i know he did all that shit and its great, but hes all talk when he says oh yea been talking about rev vol3 since 06. etc. etc. etc. And trust me im a mega immortal technique fan.....to be honest i feel rev vol 1 was the best

[seraph101]

@ecuaagua20 Hey chill out, the albums are coming. It will be worth waiting for.

[ecuaagua20]

@seraph101 hope your right.

[SDIGGIE]

I think people also need to realize "revolution" is not all about going to war and killin people but it's about changing your mind set and how one reacts through the world. I/E what you buy, listen to, watch, support, etc. There is always a cause and effect for every action done. Like Gill Scott said "the revolution will not be televised, the revolution is here"! LET GOD BE YOUR GUID.

[kyroh]

@SDIGGIE well said

[Fuzzymcstank]

@SDIGGIE let technique be your guide, god stopped leading the way a long time ago

[pawndominance1]

@SDIGGIE let science and reasoning be the guide

[LilGuilty702]

@SDIGGIE AGREE

[3087077]

I was there that day I can see myself in this video! haha

Technique is a great live performer, lots of energy! After his set he was meeting fans at his booth and I got to shake hands with the man and get Revolutinary vol.2 signed :)

[julianmackler]

Epic! Love the editing and camera shots! Been a huge Tech fan since forever and have never seen him like this. Great job!
