Immortal Technique - Sign Of The Times

[@SoulxRebel]

Still one of my favorites in 2024. It’s not just about being a fan or appreciating the artist’s skill level. This one hits the soul and drops some straight life knowledge. Listen and think about where we are as a society today. The revolution is here, but not exactly how we’d thought it would go down. The people the say are your enemy is actually your friend. The snakes in the grass.. DMX layed that out too.

[@MikkoMurmeli]

Reminds me of some wise person saying: "Love your worst enemy as you love your dearest friends." Just living up to that is quite hard, but when you ask: "What would Love do now?" , you can gain a good sense of the real reality.

[@BobBarkerScientificHeretic]

@@SoulxRebel . The "Revolution" is taking place just as much in our own internal lives, into Society (however dreadful that will shake out), also it unfolds in the macro above. I didn't think it would look like this either Souix Rebel, the world reflects the state of the Internal. I Pray that you overcome your struggles and walk away a much stronger man. 🙏💪

[@DenverRiddellMusic]

"Live for the revolution instead of always dying for it" - Immortal Technique, the best fucking rapper of all time. Period.

"Live for revolution, instead of always dying for it."

[@Oriange]

The first time i heard "Dance with the Devil" i feel in love with Immortal Technique's music. I went to see him when he performed in Melbourne. He truly is gifted, he talks about evolution, revolution, and how fucked up the world is.

[@weblogic117]

"The blood clot system tried to kill me like sickle-cell But I survived and I'm alive to fight another day" ahead of its time..

[@Synyst3rg4t3]

That's funny, first song I heard was Dance with the Devil and I thought he was a story teller. Then I realized he was a realist/revolutionist. Then I listened to revolution vol 1 & 2, then the martyr. Then I found out about the 3rd World and Portable Immortal. Then I heard about The Middle Passage, which I can't wait for... Now there's 150 songs of his on my Ipod, and he is the other musician worthy of being on my Ipod. Lol

It brings back memories when I was a kid back in Guatemala studying mayan culture and there's a meaning of what tech said...Immortal T. He sure is a intellectual

So happy this album is out, been waiting for some new music for him for some time now. So many rappers keep adapting to the new style with synthesized beats and vocals. Immortal keeps it real with the same kinda style and speaks real shit. Go buy his old albums instead of just pirating them, he's an artist that's actually worth supporting.
