Actually IS one of the best artists out there. Controversial, non conformist and sends out the right message. Along with authors such as Bill Cooper, he tries to move the people to take a stand against all that is wrong and corrupt with this world.
And for all of you saying Big L is better, I wouldnt expect you to appreciate something as deep as Immortal Technique when you listen to such shallow lyrics as Big L. You are the people who I.M. tries to get through to, the media runs your life, and you aspire to be alongside those who glamourise all the shit thats wrong with this world.
Shame on you.
And only white guys love him? What a sweeping statement to make. You're very wrong there. It's mostly intelligent people, and people that want to stand up and make a fuckin difference to this world, and the people who KNOW whats going on, who want knowledge and dont want to be opressed anymore that appreciate him.

"Cause Of Death"
Let the truth be known..
You better watch what the fuck flies outta ya mouth
Or I'ma hijack a plane and fly it into your house
Burn your apartment with your family tied to the couch
And slit your throat, so when you scream, only blood comes out
I doubt that there could ever be...a more wicked MC
'Cause AIDS infested child molesters aren't sicker than me
I see the world for what it is, beyond the white and the black
The way the government downplays historical facts
'Cause the United States sponsored the rise of the 3rd Reich
Just like the CIA trained terrorists to the fight
Build bombs and sneak box cutters onto a flight
When I was a child, the Devil himself bought me a mic
But I refused the offer, 'cause God sent me to strike
With skills unused like fallopian tubes on a dyke
My words'll expose George Bush and Bin Laden
As two separate parts of the same seven headed dragon
And you can't fathom the truth, so you don't hear me
You think illuminati's just a fucking conspiracy theory?
That's why Conservative racists are all runnin' shit
And your phone is tapped by the Federal Government
So I'm jammin' frequencies in ya brain when you speak to me
Technique will rip a rapper to pieces indecently
Pack weapons illegally, because I'm never hesitant
Sniper scoping a commission controlling the president
Father, forgive them, for they don't know right from wrong
The truth will set you free, written down in this song
And the song has the Cause of Death written in code
The Word of God brought to life, that'll save ya soul..
Save ya soul motherfucker...save ya soul..
I hacked the Pentagon for self-incriminating evidence
Of Republican manufactured white powder pestilence
Marines Corps. flack vest, with the guns and ammo
Spittin' bars like a demon stuck inside a piano
Turn a Sambo into a soldier with just one line
Now here's the truth about the system that'll fuck up your mind
They gave Al Queda 6 billion dollars in 1989 to 1992
And now the last chapters of Revelations are coming true
And I know a lot of people find it hard to swallow this
Because subliminal bigotry makes you hate my politics
But you act like America wouldn't destroy two buildings
In a country that was sponsoring bombs dropped on our children
I was watching the Towers, and though I wasn't the closest
I saw them crumble to the Earth like they was full of explosives
And they thought nobody noticed the news report that they did
About the bombs planted on the George Washington bridge
Four Non-Arabs arrested during the emergency
And then it disappeared from the news permanently
They dubbed a tape of Osama, and they said it was proof
"Jealous of our freedom," I can't believe you bought that excuse
Rocking a motherfucking flag don't make you a hero
Word to Ground Zero
The Devil crept into Heaven, God overslept on the 7th
The New World Order was born on September 11
And just so Conservatives don't take it to heart
I don't think Bush did it, 'cause he isn't that smart
He's just a stupid puppet taking orders on his cell phone
From the same people that sabotaged Senator Wellstone
The military industry got it poppin' and lockin'
Looking for a way to justify the Wolfowitz Doctrine
And as a matter of fact, Rumsfeld, now that I think back
Without 9/11, you couldn't have a war in Iraq
Or a Defense budget of world conquest proportions
Kill freedom of speech and revoke the right to abortions
Tax cut extortion, a blessing to the wealthy and wicked
But you still have to answer to the Armageddon you scripted
And Dick Cheney, you fucking leech, tell them your plans
About building your pipelines through Afghanistan
And how Israeli troops trained the Taliban in Pakistan
You might have some house niggas fooled, but I understand
Colonialism is sponsored by corporations
That's why Halliburton gets paid to rebuild nations
Tell me the truth, I don't scare into paralysis
I know the CIA saw Bin Laden on dialysis
In '98 when he was Top Ten for the FBI
Government ties is really why the Government lies
Read it yourself instead of asking the Government why
'Cause then the Cause of Death will cause the propaganda to die.

Best rapper from Harlem ever. Deff one of the best rappers of all time, its basiclly just him and tupac. Everyone else is around the same lvl. Both are influential rappers that move the shit out of there listeners. And both dont appeal to only one race like most other rappers. A white boi from the burbs and a nigga from the bronx can both listen to his song and agree/understand.
"The things ive seen in life would make you choke by surprise/like an aborted fetus in a jar that opens its eyes"-Internally Bleeding
"It's like Cambodia the killing fields uptown
We live in distress and hang the flag upside down
The sound of conservative politicians on television
People in the hood are blind so they tell us to listen
They vote for us to go to war instantly
But none of their kids serving the infantry
The odds are stacked against us like a casino
Think about it, most of the army is black and latino
And if you can't acknowledge the reality of my words
You just another stupid mother fucker out on the curb
Trying to escape from the ghetto with your ignorant ways
But you can't read history at an illiterate stage
And you can't raise a family on minimum wage
Why the fuck you think most of us are locked in a cage
I give niggaz the truth, cause they pride is indigent
You better off rich and guilty than poor and innocent
But I'm sick of feeling impotent watching the world burn
In the era of apocalypse waiting my turn
I'm a Harlem nigga that's concerned with the future
And if your in my way it'd be an honor to shoot ya
Up root ya with the evil that grows in my people
Making them deceitful, cannibalistic and lethal
But I see through the mentality implanted in us
And I educate my fam about who we should trust"
-Harlem Streets

The Dopest and illest rapper to spit on a mic. His rhymes are so crazy and his lyrics are so amazing that when he spits he disintergrates mics. NO JOKE and No doubt. He is also the only rapper who has a reason to think he is better then the rest and has the right to brag and be obnoxious!
He touches on political topics and world issues, his lyrical dictionary is at a high level so he isnt some dumb ass. He fucks up mc's. HE IS THE SHITTT!

Criminally over-rated hatred-spewer. Yes, hate has an appreciative audience, especially if arguably baseless, conspiracy-driven lyrics are concerned which isn't a stretch considering he discusses a repetitive and limited array of topics without backing up what he proclaims to be the 'truth'. If you think Immortal Technique is 'deep' then you must have a dispairingly low IQ, despairing as it shows idiocy is far spread in this world and is corrupting the undergroud scene. This rapper has no flow at all, when he raps it sounds like a train wreck a million times over. There are quite literally hundreds of better rappers than him. IT is not intelligent, he caters for fools who lack knowledge and instantly believe what differs from the norm due to sheer ignorance and those who love ludicrous declarations. In short, they are imbeciles who need to read a few books and get an education, because let's be honest, only retards like Immortal Technique. That's no generalisation, that's a a fair assessment. His vulgar profanity isn't appealing, his rhyming skills are poor, his use of a high level lexis grouping reminds me of Cannibus, another pathetic rapper who utilises 'big' words to make himself sound clever to the masses when in actual fact, is a complete idiot. You herd of sheep are way too easy to fool. Immortal Technique is straight up wack. Go and masturbate over 'Dance With The Devil', you know you want to you bunch of dick-riding faggots.

Look Immortal technique is a very good rapper and im a big fan of his. But he is way overatted. To all these clowns talkin bout he's the best ever along with Tupac are morons being is that Tupac was far from the best ever and was also overratted. Any body sayin he's the best out of harlem need to do one thing.....pick up a BIG L cd. I gurentee you your not gonna be sayin Immortal Technique or Pac or any one for that matter is the best ever after you hear it. But any way, I-T is a fun one to listin too, comes with no hold barred opinions on the government and touches many issues, also comes with some pretty nice battle raps. A must hear for any real hip hop fan, if your into chingy or g-unit or that commercial non sense then stay away cause it isnt for you.

immortal technique sang a song called point of no return in which he tells about all of the wacked things he thinks, still talented but somewhat of a kook...
