This song fucked me up when I first heard it. Gave me chills hearing it again. This gotta be one of the best story telling songs in history and at the same time one of the darkest.
Immortal Technique is an African Peruvian (In the same way you're an African American). This song was also released long before X ever picked up a mic, if anything Technique influenced him. If you haven't check out his song "3rd World".
To your pops about the N-word: mexicans aint out here callin each other spic, and italians aint out here calling each other wop. Since the n word is commonly used in a friendly manner like homie amongst poor communities with black and brown people like in houston and nyc and chicago, then its a different thing
This song was released back in 2001! Immortal is an og underground icon! All his songs are about truth/revolution. Very raw and real. His knowledge and vocabulary was and is still next level. Nice reaction, salu2!
and he's a passionate activist too! in L.A i'v seen him at City Council Meetings & at planting at free Community Gardens we started where anybody can eat from it & anybody can grow there
If only he would listen to the song. How "I didn't hear that" or catching something after the rewind, or saying you just said that when the chorus replayed... the story isn't hard to catch its pretty much a clear picture all the way through...
People forget that Lyrics can have a deeper meaning than just a Literal story. I always took this story as a message of being consumed with evil and how we can do the worst things to our loved ones when we get lost in our own greed and darkness.
yea people totally miss the point the first time i heart this song i wasnt even thinking about that it was just so jarring in general i just felt messed up for hours lol
to be honest, im not a big fan of reaction channels but i was relistening to this song and you popped in the auto play. your father is a man that should be heard, his ability to confront what he doesn't like while still being able to understand the point being made is what we should all aspire to be. if i can ask, give "you never know - immortal technique" the same treatment. would really like to see his reaction to the story telling of that song
Hey he has an interview about him using the n word and him being In prison about calling someone else out for using the n word. Y’all should check it out
Immortal Technique is (according to wikipedia) of "afro-peruvian descent", so I believe that means one parent is black one from Peru. Not sure though if that's more of an indigenous background or not
You no he not, the son can barely be asked, that or being a typical zoomer he's barely paying attention to the song.. So no wonder why talented story telling rap isn't a huge thing anymore and instead the focus is on these fruity rappers and joke rappers, smh.
Seeing your dad react with you makes me smile. This song changed my life for the better after being in a compromised position in life. I'll never forget this song
By far the best reaction to this song alone. Felt like I was listening to it for the first time with your guys reaction and I'm going to look up that interview with him because that's incredible
Crazy part is, when listening to this song, it’s so easy to feel like you’re watching a movie in a theater, regardless of where you’re sitting. Your mind shuts off and strictly focuses on the song, it’s just that powerful.
I remember my buddy put this on for me in 2016, when we first started smoking ( we were in highschool) I thought it was gonna be a lame ass song because we came from the mumble rap era. The lyrics and the story were just something so crazy to me my mind was blown and my high was Lowkey ruined after listening to it. This was back when getting high off weed was actually getting high not a 15 minute buzz... Dark ass song
Sometimes the upload date is wrong. This album came out in 2001 (maybe that's when it was uploaded, but I am old enough to know that the current youtube everyone knows, hasn't always been this way. The oldest music I find on here says "uploaded 14 years ago" but this song is now 23 years old. (Just incase you weren't aware or were curious - along with anyone else...)
Yea when he said "4 years ago ok" I'm like wtf? No, how are you doing by that to when the song originally came out?? Songs can be re released, just google "when was this song made/released" smh.
I was caught up in the drug/pill epidemic of white America at the time early 2000s and this was the song people played in the car between drug songs lol
I heard this back in 2010 and couldnt believe what i listened to, thank you for bringing it back. This is a classic for me. Like yall said you actually felt you were in a movie. Not many artists anymore make me feel that way. I subbed good luck on you journey.
And the typical zoomer son is barely listening.... Smh this is why hip hop died, kids' can't be bothered to support or even listen to a real artist so the poppy corny BS rises to the top. No wonder crap like Oliver Tree and 69 are popular.
@@VinEllis yeah cus he's half black half indigenous you moron, his dad is black, this is known info, plus check out all his interviews, he's asked all the time, he's a Harlem legend
@@VinEllishaving certain physical characteristics doesn’t define one’s race. What next you gonna call Malcolm X not black because he had red hair? The your same argument can be made for people who had conks back in the day. Are they not African American because they changed their hair to be straight and “white looking”. Do your research before you claim something about someone else. He says he’s part black and is on multiple podcasts talking about the usage of the N word.
@@ricardoracz7894 Malcolm X is half white. It would be pretty unusual for someone who is black to have perfectly straight hair. Immortal Technique is mestizo. He’s European, indigenous, and small amounts of African. Afro Peruvian implies he’s Peruvian of mostly black descent.
Pops be droppin gems. 26:43 is pure facts cuz every day you wake up is an opportunity to change things & things can change swiftly. It starts with a firm decision in your mind, then actionable moves in your reality.
OG im Mexican and I understand what you’re saying about the N word. Let me give you a different perspective. I was born in Compton and we were the only Mexican family in the hood. I actually learned to speak English from all my black homies. I remember my homies mom call me the n word. I was like that’s a bad word. She said you an n word to look at how you live and how you’re treated. We moved to the bay when I was 7 and in the hood I grew up in everyone used that word. It was just a part of the culture. I understand the point you’re making just trying to give you a different perspective. Much respect OG by the way we are probably the same age I might even be older.
Then your gonna hate it bc the son being a typical zoomer is barely paying attention and they keep talking over parts, stopping it right before something is told that they paused to ask.. This is why reaction vidoes can be annoying af.
I'm surprised ppl still bump let alone know this song or Immortal Tech, great guy with a important message. Went with my boys to see him live in NY when he did the 3rd world tour 2007. Amazing guy, looked at my shirt and gave me daps, I was wearing this ECKO shirt that was a peace sign made up of stuff like tanks, guns, bullets ect he loved my shirt he said.
Best reaction video I have seen of this song. Great reactions! You both seem great. Dad has a good head on his shoulders and the son will benefit greatly from his guidance. I really appreciated the reverence for the song. It shook me up when I first heard it. Powerful!
This is the first time I actually sat through an entire reaction video because I 100% agree with OG's perspective. Usually someone says something I don't agree with on other channels but this one all the way through was nothing but consistency in agreement. & the fact that you guys are father and son Reacting to this song is both bittersweet & trauma-healing to me. I respect the F out of both of you. Much love to you and yours !
Subscribed instantly when I saw the dynamic between you two. Raising a good and responsible kid in this day and age is one of the toughest jobs around. Be best of friends with your kids... Its a good start.
i went on a binge where i watched everyones reaction to this song like 4 months ago and its mad funny the people i wanted most to have reacted to it react to it couple months after i was super into it
Great reaction as usual. Pops prolly about my age and shows a lot of wisdom. Really strong to see a black father sharing real life jewels with his son and the web. Pops, you have every right to feel the way you do about anyone using the n-word but I did want to say that Immortal Technique is, in fact ,African American and Peruvian, just for context. Keep the reactions and wisdom coming.
He’s Peruvian with some African ancestry.. but I’m guessing being raised in New York among black folks they take you in as their own and both don’t see color so saying the n word is just a normal thing to them
Your father a wise man..let that man guide you..he seems to be doing the dad thing really well. Wish me and my dad had that relationship but I got my own son so I guess I can make it happen with my own through me!
Immortal technique has been one of my all time favorites for his lyrical mastery. some of his songs have been living rent free in my head for 10+ years
Fxck... I'm in trouble then!! (Lmao, hopefully the well-intentioned (although "politically incorrect") sarcasm is understood! There's some of us "pale faces" that aren't so bad! We, the decent, true intentioned, and unbreakable people need to ALL UNITE. and as rage once said, "WE GOTTA TAKE THE POWER BACK!!!" From all these corrupt, evil, degenerate, hateful scum bags who keep trying to tear us down and make us submit to the narrative that we're not the same and must distrust and despise and demean our fellow men and women - they need the hateful cycle to continue - so they can keep using us against one another for profit! I ain't asking to come to the cookout or the Fiesta, but I won't turn the offer down haha "ONE LOVE!"
There's almost nothing more redemptive and more powerful than you being able to stand in your own garbage and tell the truth about what you've done to hold yourself accountable for where you were and what you did, and all of that is the sign of being a man. 👌👌👌👌
I’ve loved this song since I was in middle school; the beat, the story telling, the rhyming schemes. A top tier song that will be appreciated throughout the generations.
I heard this song when it was released in 2001. I was in middle school. Song fucked me up then and fucks me up all these years later. Such a wild turn in that final verse.
Immortal Technique is not just another rapper. He is a complete artist. A truly intelligent dude and excellent writer. Even though this story was heard from his cell mate, it takes skill to write something so horrible so eloquently and vibrantly. Like everyone who listens to this song immediately sees in their mind the scene IT is illustrating. He was the first artist I ever downloaded their whole discography when I was younger. This song is his Magnum Opus, but he has a hoard of other great songs talking about hard truths and difficult topics, alongside beats that are super easy to nod to, and you can hear and “see” every word. I really enjoyed yours and your fathers’s commentary on this.
React to more Immortal technique he’s fire. Rich man’s world, goonies never die, industrial revolution, Peruvian Cocaine, freedom of speech, the fourth branch, point of no return. All great songs that are deep been listened to him since I was a kid.
I was chillin in the bus one day, listening to Spotify Hip Hop recommendations. Ain't no clue how amongst relatively tame tracks this came on, but holy shit, I was taken for a ride when I heard it.
I love watching reactions to this song it's way older then 4 years . Its the best story telling song in hip hop. So good You should check out pray for me by Joe Budden. It's 🔥🔥🔥
you’re dad is real. i love his explanations for each song. he’s actually able to understand what the meaning of the song is. a lot of people can’t do that
I played this for my sociology class after my teacher said no music would surprise her. She loved the hook, as a sociology professor should, but was definitely not ready for the last verse.
Bc it's common sense. Watch a movie with a big plot twist and tell me that knowing the plot twist wouldn't affect your REACTION. Could you still appreciate the movie? Sure, but that feeling of being surprised makes it so much better.
This song fucked me up when I first heard it. Gave me chills hearing it again. This gotta be one of the best story telling songs in history and at the same time one of the darkest.

regardless how real he is it’s shit music im listening fs

Children's Story - Slick Rick
Lesley - Dave, is up there too would recommend and if u don’t know him ur welcome 🤘🏻
Styles P- nobody believes me is still one of the most creative hip hop songs as well
Some people go their whole lives not knowing the difference between ethnicity and race but ironically live their whole lives obsessing over race 🤦♂️🤣
Do more immortal technique guys very deep and super smart knows alot of what's going on in the world that people are scared to talk about
Immortal Technique is (according to wikipedia) of "afro-peruvian descent", so I believe that means one parent is black one from Peru. Not sure though if that's more of an indigenous background or not
Afro Peruvian is like Afro Mexican. It is the acknowledgement of having some African descendants. Check out Susana Baca from Peru.
He’s not Mexican lol y’all should check out his story y’all will be surprised he’s a philanthropist and activist and extremely smart dude has stories

Fr they talk to fuckin much I changed to something else cause they boring af
I heard this song when it was released in 2001. I was in middle school. Song fucked me up then and fucks me up all these years later. Such a wild turn in that final verse.
Man your dad is a strong wise man, very glad to see you listning and absorbing what he's saying.
Ur pops is a really wise man DAMN
Immortal Technique is not just another rapper. He is a complete artist. A truly intelligent dude and excellent writer. Even though this story was heard from his cell mate, it takes skill to write something so horrible so eloquently and vibrantly. Like everyone who listens to this song immediately sees in their mind the scene IT is illustrating.
He was the first artist I ever downloaded their whole discography when I was younger. This song is his Magnum Opus, but he has a hoard of other great songs talking about hard truths and difficult topics, alongside beats that are super easy to nod to, and you can hear and “see” every word.
I really enjoyed yours and your fathers’s commentary on this.
Immortal Technique is an amazing artist
Been listening to immortal technique since i was 12 im 31 now and man Tech has not once ever let me down
My favorite one yet!!!
I love how your dad broke down the lyrics and tried to understood it to his fullest capacity, and he understood it perfectly too imo
Its a right of passage for anyone that grew up in the intenet era .
This song touches everyone, African American, whites , Mexicans. Good/ crazy song
React to more Immortal technique he’s fire. Rich man’s world, goonies never die, industrial revolution, Peruvian Cocaine, freedom of speech, the fourth branch, point of no return. All great songs that are deep been listened to him since I was a kid.
You Never Know is also a good story song!
one of the illest songs ever created 10/10 for sure
Your relationship with your father is really cool to see. That man is wise! Cherish the bond you both have❤ It permeates positivity
Your dad is so well spoken and has a great voice. Feels like I’m watching a lecture from a professor.
definitely need him to react to more immortal technique
You guys should react to Immortal technique you never know !!!
YES!!
Exactly
I was chillin in the bus one day, listening to Spotify Hip Hop recommendations. Ain't no clue how amongst relatively tame tracks this came on, but holy shit, I was taken for a ride when I heard it.
yall should do the “hoff twins” documentary, yo pops would start trippen 😂😂😂😂😂 yall would fw it heavy tho😂 the hoff twins entertaining fasho
💯😂👌
Nah they ass. Switched up
This dude is so fucking wise. Like life lessons every five minutes 😂 he seems so intelligent.
I love watching reactions to this song it's way older then 4 years . Its the best story telling song in hip hop. So good
You should check out pray for me by Joe Budden. It's 🔥🔥🔥
Art of story telling at its peak , it makes you feel being on that street and witnessing everything....sickest but captivating lyrics of all time
Y'all should react to the second part, the Diabolical one is fire
you’re dad is real. i love his explanations for each song. he’s actually able to understand what the meaning of the song is. a lot of people can’t do that
"Who was puffy" 😂 come on yall.
Dad knew youngster was lost 😂
I played this for my sociology class after my teacher said no music would surprise her. She loved the hook, as a sociology professor should, but was definitely not ready for the last verse.
The point of a reaction is to go into it blind. Doing research ahead of time ruins the emotion you wouldve felt by knowing nothing
I mean how would they know that though.
Bc it's common sense. Watch a movie with a big plot twist and tell me that knowing the plot twist wouldn't affect your REACTION. Could you still appreciate the movie? Sure, but that feeling of being surprised makes it so much better.
@@bobbythompson8661 I mean with most regular songs, they don’t got plot twists.
Holy shit. It’s crazy seeing someone react to this in 2024. This is definitely one of the darkest songs ever written.
