Someone already mentioned Dead Prez, couldn't hurt to mention them some more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8c_UdWo4Zek They're black socialists along the lines of the Black Panthers. And they produce excellent, excellent music. The Coup also seems somewhat popular around here, even though the group's disbanded Boots Riley is still alive and kicking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGhLQScRElI That's Street Sweepers Social Club, i.e. Boots Riley with Tom Morello of RATM fame. Lowkey was also mentioned previously, him and his friends Akala, Logic/People's Army, and the rest of the GlobalFaction crew is pretty cool as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_xArPvgIjU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bB-vYuYhdSE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNlL3dyLAyk They rap about race relations, Palestine, and imperialism in general. And in the same vein, here's the Narcicyst, an Iraq-Canadian rapper who isn't too pleased with the way Muslims are treated in western society: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtoHCUMpNMY

ekuNNN posted:The coup hasn't disbanded though, or is that something really recent? I was part of their opening act in the Netherlands half a year ago when they were touring in Europe Hah, that is really good news. Somehow I had it in my head that Pam the Funktress left and Boots went with Street Sweepers for good. Just looked it up and it seems I was entirely delusional.
