2011ADRO Lupe wasnt building orphanages in Afghanistan because he was too busy with his foundation in Chicago, bringing awareness to clean drinking water around the world, helping the Haiti earthquake victims, inspiring people to fight cancer and countless other philanthropic ventures. Dont be one of those people who dont use Google. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lupe_fiasco#Philanthropy_and_business_ventures But what does this have anything to do with intellect? Their are plenty of smart rappers. Just because you see IT in a video, doesnt mean he is the only artist that is trying to make a change. Generalized statements like "Immortal is easily the smartest rapper in the game." should be challenged because that undermines what other people are doing.
+Kirk895 it's the truth though. who gives a fuck what he was sellin? no one deserves to die like that for that reason. it's hilarious to the point of sheer insanity that those cops got away with that shit.
yellowdart6666 I know it was the truth, he was stating undeniable facts. But the way he made such a serious topic funny, Immortal Technique should be a comedian lmao.
Kirk895 yea I mean really, just hearing him talk anywhere... people should have to pay for it haha. he's that well spoken. for fucks sake, Bush charges 100 grand to speak places and that guy is dumb as a toaster.
He hit the nail on the head so many people tell the police "i pay for your salary you work for me" when everyone know that shit holds no weight, you dont write the check for their salary its just going to piss them off and make it harder for you to avoid the situation
This guy is low key hilarious. I love hearing his take on what's in the news. Whether right or wrong it's refreshing to see an intelligent rapper who's well versed in what's going on in the world
"I can't hate people I don't know or I've never met" exactly I think too many people think all cops are bad and yes there are ALOT of shitty cops but it's not all cops
The Bloods and Crips were just that as the Black Panthers, until the government embedded sleeper agents and caused the strife which started the split. A stronger code of honor would need to be implemented for it to work...it would have to rival that of the U.S military itself...with strong leaders who wont let egos get in the way.
Immortal Technique was right. Cop was not indicted in the Garner case, and that sparked even more protests not just in nyc, but across the nation. Curious what his perspective is today.
This is an extremely interesting and eye opening perspective. As a police officer in a large metropolitan area - this is very great. THERE IS A RIGHT TO TELL A SHIT POLICE OFFICER THEY ARE NOT DOING THEIR JOB RIGHT AND THEY ARE SHITTY. Police officers need to do better.. WE need to do better and we need to check each other and let each other know - you're doing a shit job. There is nothing wrong with that. Some of "us" cannot take the criticism. But the best thing I learned is to take that conversation as an opener. Learn, listen and understand why someone is saying that. If someone is saying you're racist..there is a reason they are saying that. Talk to them about it. Listen to them. Have a conversation with that person. I agree with immortal...Eric Garner deserved life, deserved to live, deserved to see and talk to his moms. There is zero reason why he is deceased right now. This matter could have been handled so differently.
I am a student in England. After I saw the Eric Garner video I cried. I did not know him, I am not black. I am is a human being so it affected me. How the cop was not charged with ANYTHING makes me fucking crazy! Some cops think they are gods. This cop should be charged with something. ANYTHING, how the hell did he get away with this. The police officer saying that he "did not put him in a choke hold" in court. Watch the video, watch the video then say that again. Your forearm is clearly pushing into his neck and cutting off his air supply. I am fucking infuriated with the decision of the courts, I have exams this week but after seeing the video of Eric I seriously forgot about them, I felt to book a flight to new york and protest this case. DO something about this, the angry grampa video reaction to Eric Garner is how I feel. Life is too fucking short, there is no justice in the USA, this makes me so angry because this injustice is on a HUMAN BEING, and nothing has been done about it. The officer saying that he feels "Bad", the wife of Eric Garner is the perfect reply to this. No we do not accept his apology, you should of loosened your grip? NO you should of let him go, he shouted "I CANT BREATE". LET HIM GO. How would holding him in a choke hold while he's on the floor surrounded by 6 officers be the right thing to do. How would this help you, this is murder. You was not a threat. He just wanted to be left alone and you killed him Daniel Pantaleo. You should be in prison. Police are here to protect, but all I see is them being here to be feared, wanting respect and if they don't get there full respect they can do anything they want. Please god help us. RIP Eric Garner
Revolutionary Volume 2 is more useful than a lot of political science textbooks for learning how American politics actually functions (or dysfunctions).
1) Wrong Chock holds are NOT illegal IN NYS. 2) Law is the Law. Asks the people who live in Staten Island now. Cops are no where to be seen since people don't want them around. Drugs, and hookers are more visible in the community according to newspapers. If you don't mind raising you're children in an area like that then live there. 3) How do you subdue a 6 foot 350 lbs man NONE violently??? Have you tried? 4) Its not you're responsibility to know the health status of people. If Garner had a bad heart maybe he should have surrendered! 5) If Garner was braking up a fight BEFORE cops stopped him, where is the video for that? Didn't his friend think to tape the fight?
They did more than just loot Black Wallstreet Tulsa Oklahoma, They actually had flying machines, Gliders and such, come in and Bomb the city. As well as the other oppressive stuff that went on. Watched a documentary on. Blew my mind
I wish people were more honest in their interviews... I respect Immortal, but how can immortal have lyrics in his song like, " it aint nothing to me to slit a cops throat" and then in this interview he says, " I do not hate all cops"..... This happens all the time... rappers try to speak all proper and big in interviews and then when asked about issues, they say its not a big deal, but in their music, they are saying and acting the total opposite...
He may have just been talking about corrupt cops, you know..the ones that deserve it....but if he was thinking of all cops when he laid that rhyme it still doesnt mean that he has not matured in his understanding since then and that cops should be seen as individuals and they all are not corrupt. Also, generalizations are hard to escape sometimes and going into specifics with lyrics could be a daunting task as well, especially when the message is clear to most that the reason killing a cop would be so easy is because of corruption.
The man is right on the money, however he uses the n word as a term of endearment and yet won't say it when he tells the story of the black town that was looted by white. He says they used the n word. He then goes on to say they should have hired a sheriff white as snow then all of those n*ggas etc.etc. I applaud this man for his way of discussing the real issues through rap, however he has fallen to the same level as this generation when using the n word as a term of endearment. That's because the lamestream media has allowed this to become some type of acceptable slang within the minority communities. The word was used by slave owners to describe a group of people (blacks) they thought were uneducated or ignorant. Using as a term of endearment only shows the ignorance of both the person saying it and the person accepting being called that. Immortal Technique keep up the fight I'm in your corner but don't fall for the b.s. of the lamestream media. Power to the People!!!
People keep saying if you cooperate with cops, everything wil be fine. That is partially true, it may keep a situation from unnecessarily escalating, but they can beat the fuck out of you and yell "stop resisting" or "he's going for my gun" while you're in the fetal position taking blows too. It ultimately doesnt matter.
Eric should have complied to the cops and take it to court if he was wrongfully arrested. Choking him out was wrong but resisting arrest for whatever reason is wrong also.
Errrng! Wrong. Immortal Technique refused to sign with any major label because he was worried about his lyrical content being toned down. Also he raps about what he wants cos he heart tells him to. Not because he wants to become rich. Besides in this internet age, being independent could do him just fine. e.g Macklemore
IMMORTAL TECH WHERES THE MUSIC ? YOU AND JUS ALLAH GOT ME WAITING FOR AGES NO MIDDLE PASSAGE NO MIXTAPES WHATS GOING ON YOU FALLING OFF OR QUE LOL MUCH LOVE
I ALWAYS HEAR PEOPLE SAY COLOR OF MY SKIN. LISTEN PEOPLE! DARK SKIN IS NOT JUST A BLACK THING. SKIN COLOR IS NOT THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES RACES LOOK DIFFERENT. SKIN COLOR DAMN SURE IS NOT THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES WHITE PEOPLE AND BLACK LOOK DIFFERENT.
Immortal is easily the smartest rapper in the game.
Lupe Fiasco.

fuck yeah
PLEASE!!! Vlad......sincerly YOUR VIEWERS!!
I support this comment 100%
Shullup bitch need some humour time to time cant be serious, depressing interviews 24/7 do you know how many views and subscribers he would loose
preach
Immortal Technique needs his own show. I would watch every time it's on.
Don't mean to sound like I have no heart but when he said "I don't care if he was selling fun dip my nigga" I laughed.
+macmac264 Lmao, you're not a horrible person. I laughed to, but come on you can't blame us. It was the way he said it xD.
+Kirk895 it's the truth though. who gives a fuck what he was sellin? no one deserves to die like that for that reason. it's hilarious to the point of sheer insanity that those cops got away with that shit.
yellowdart6666 I know it was the truth, he was stating undeniable facts. But the way he made such a serious topic funny, Immortal Technique should be a comedian lmao.

Immortal Technique needs longer interviews. I know they do the interviews and release them in segments but his segments should be longer.
These interviews with Immortal Technique are always good
If you enjoy Immortal Technique conversations, look up the few 3 hour podcast he did with Joe Rogan.
Bruh that podcast was dope
Will do
Also check out his interview with Cenk Uygur at TYT Interviews!
good looks homie.
genuine thanks, from a nigga in the uk bro
I would vote for him if he pursued a position in politics, EASY
This guy is low key hilarious. I love hearing his take on what's in the news. Whether right or wrong it's refreshing to see an intelligent rapper who's well versed in what's going on in the world
"I can't hate people I don't know or I've never met" exactly I think too many people think all cops are bad and yes there are ALOT of shitty cops but it's not all cops
It doesn't matter. The bad ones will always out weigh the good ones.
you my friend are a legend!
Talk that shit, he is speaking that truth, very conscious and aware, listen to this man
Gangs should stop the violence and become united and form a citizens Militia.
***** it will be very hard if those idiots get together and form a team
Sssssuuwwuup to da 5 for dat. We gotta link and become a military. . Right to h e arms
We making it happen now.one city at a time
The Bloods and Crips were just that as the Black Panthers, until the government embedded sleeper agents and caused the strife which started the split. A stronger code of honor would need to be implemented for it to work...it would have to rival that of the U.S military itself...with strong leaders who wont let egos get in the way.
Word. bloods, crips, latin kings, etc all need to unite and start terrorizing the police.
We need more guys like immortal in this rap shit
finally he's back!!
It's hard to believe someone this intelligent is a rapper.
So rappers aren't supposed to be intelligent?
So Tupac was not intelligent?
check out Prince Ea "Make Smart Cool" .. he pretty dope.. check his freestyles too
So what is a smart person supposed to be like or look like?..
Lupe fiasco is highly intelligent but I heard he is very bi polar
This is the sort of thing we want to hear Immortal Technique speaking on this is what he NEEDS to be speaking on
fucking finally ive been waiting for more Immortal Technique
Tech and KRS 1 are 2 opinions I value very much ! Salute !
Immortal Technique was right. Cop was not indicted in the Garner case, and that sparked even more protests not just in nyc, but across the nation. Curious what his perspective is today.
more immortal interviews asap

only person who talks sense on this channel
I am a student in England. After I saw the Eric Garner video I cried. I did not know him, I am not black.
I am is a human being so it affected me. How the cop was not charged with ANYTHING makes me fucking crazy!
Some cops think they are gods. This cop should be charged with something. ANYTHING, how the hell did he get away with this.

Life is too fucking short, there is no justice in the USA, this makes me so angry because this injustice is on a HUMAN BEING, and nothing has been done about it.

You should be in prison. Police are here to protect, but all I see is them being here to be feared, wanting respect and if they don't get there full respect they can do anything they want.
Please god help us.
RIP Eric Garner
Always learn something from this brother. #ImmortalTechnique
Wow he hit it right on the nose everything he said was on point
On point, as usual...
Love it! Dropping knowledge.
Finally Vlad, A good fucking interview.
Revolutionary Volume 2 is more useful than a lot of political science textbooks for learning how American politics actually functions (or dysfunctions).
Simon Carlile At one point of time, I listened to the whole album daily
Tech real af..
He said it best..
The biggest crime you can commit in a cops mind is breaking their ego
1) Wrong Chock holds are NOT illegal IN NYS.
2) Law is the Law. Asks the people who live in Staten Island now. Cops are no where to be seen since people don't want them around. Drugs, and hookers are more visible in the community according to newspapers. If you don't mind raising you're children in an area like that then live there.
3) How do you subdue a 6 foot 350 lbs man NONE violently??? Have you tried?
4) Its not you're responsibility to know the health status of people. If Garner had a bad heart maybe he should have surrendered!
5) If Garner was braking up a fight BEFORE cops stopped him, where is the video for that? Didn't his friend think to tape the fight?
Immortal is a very well spoken person.
Immortal technique for president
We need to hear more from Tech.
Brilliant brother right here!!!
*about time you get him back on*
I was told I was disturbing the peace just for asking what I did wrong. You have the freedom of speech and the right to remain silent.
I think he's talking about the West Palm Beach video when the cop body slammed the black guy. There is a video on WSHH.
Anyone know anymore about the guy from Oaklahoma and that Black Wall Street story Tech mentioned here?
Immortal Technique would make for an excellent lawyer too
he is so damnn smart if him and j cole make a song together i will literally die happy
Every word of this is the truth. He's saying shit I've been thinking for 10+ years. More people need to watch this video.
Immortal technique the truth!
Probably the most articulate rapper out there.
Black Wall Street was in Tulsa Ok 1921
one of Realest rapper of all time
Truth is power
I know theres more of this interview left. Release that shit yo.
Real talk. Nuff' said...
yes IM ...thanks for speaking pure truth
Tec wtf man drop some new gems or album bro
This shit real AF.
They did more than just loot Black Wallstreet Tulsa Oklahoma, They actually had flying machines, Gliders and such, come in and Bomb the city. As well as the other oppressive stuff that went on. Watched a documentary on. Blew my mind
Immortal Technique is Too real!
Just like Lord Jamar.
More Technique, less Daylyt..Thanks

All entertainers are not dumb this couldn't be any more right
With all due respect
You need to "check mate the king." Truer words have never been spoken. My cable will probably get cut off as doon as I post this...
