Sweden has some good political hip hop, Looptroop gained fame when they released a song where they claimed that they shot Olof Palme, former PM who was shot out in the open in '86, and that they framed Christer Pettersson, the main suspect.

quote:It's just another four more years for me to pour more tears
And watch my people suffer daily for your foreign affairs
I was born in a war torn area
Lord knows where, and my shoulders
have bore no more terror than all of theirs
It's sad to see the person you gave mandate
greet my folks with a surface-to-air handshake
All because the gipper wants to cash in a check
while Europeans are occupied with Bachelorette !
I woke up to 4 more years of state funded terrorism
In the name of Jesus straight fundamentalism
Message on my t-shirt screaming out my activism but nobody listens
And it feel like I got nothing but an empty page to empty out my rage
And emcee out on stage for an empty Mtv raised generation
while three generations of bushes are pushers and pimps - stifling
my petty attempts to make my people think...

quote:Yo we try to live our lives in protected homes
Don't worry 'bout no one and get your own
The weak people are just a stepping stone
On the road to the riches we hitting for
Anybody coming my way I'm gunning my way
Whoever got something to say better be runnin away
But I stay to see through the peep holes
Cause people like that is all we know, and
All of these lies and false promises
That poo poo will come back with the God nemesis, you
Whoever pick up this, a hundred years from now
Here's the last song before we all go down
The revolution is a moment away
The tensions in the air, that is coming our way, but
Powerful forces do they best
They count they're raps so they'll suite the west
Temperatures rising ain't no turnin back
At this point where this world is at
Hate'em for a cross-road which way to go
Heaven or hell only you can say you know
Promoe is one of the guys from Looptroop, and definitely the most famous one.
Promoe - White man's burden.

quote:I grew up on some hardcore rap poo poo battle
spit, back to back - gently caress the wack poo poo
it was all gangsta rap and political black power
once a week i'd tape radio's rap hour
way before i thought about a hidden agenda
i was hatin my white skin and hatin my gender
didn't wanna represent rapists and murderers
the white man's burden is not what you heard it is
it ain't about a mission to christian the heathens
but it's connected to that vision of us as superior beings
and the world's darkest history
his story is my story it ain't no mystery
why our children seeking chemical relief
infected by our parents' old cynical beliefs
inherited like a genetical disease
somebody help me please man i wanna be released!
Gojira is a french metal band that often have environmentally aware lyrics, they are also really loving good.

quote:The way we all behave is not understandable
It is so sad to see the wealth of our planet fade away
We all behave like children, taking off the head of our teddy bear
To see what's inside, taking, not giving back
We drain the oceans and suck all the blood out of the soil
We spend the time we have left fighting and killing each other
Lust for comfort, entertainment becomes an obsession
And there is so much time to kill
