  • actually

    Immortal Technique IS muslim

    idiots

    do your research before saying he isnt

  • WYR11, i work with Immortal Technique. I have spoken to him AT LENGTH about the nature of his faith. HE is not Muslim. Please chill before you start calling people names.

  • I'm pretty sure you do

    go on his website and read some stuff

    he says that he agrees with more of the islamic beliefs

    thats why he converted

  • I've spoken with Immortal Technique directly....more than once....He told me WHY he is not Muslim. Its not for me to post here. Why dont you post the link to your proof. Because unless he did it in the last 6 months (I aint seen him since Oct. 09) hes not Muslim.

  • He SAID, Immortal Technique is NOT Muslim...You just Quoted the speaker...LOL

  • Great Post!

  • No he's not saying muslims made hip-hop, just basically saying how hip-hop has been influenced by islam, and has roots to islam.

  • i agree with that ^^^

  • When someone raps about "allah" and people call that "hip hop" instead of "muslim rap" it's because people don't know what "muslim" or "allah" is. This is the only thing that I would critique out of this preacher. He is a strong preacher and I really respect the way he expresses hip hop and somewhat relate it to his religion. On the outside, he's not saying that Muslim made hip hop, but on the inside he's saying that Hip Hop has Muslim teachings. But he's not trying to convert anybody either.

  • maaaaaaaaaaa

  • i thought technique was muslims??
