Immortal Technique is my favourite artist. Most of his songs have a cold reality chill to them.

They are, but a lot of there stuff leans a little too far on the nationalistic side. They are pro socialist revolution, regardless.

The Dead Kennedys are not rap.. but many of their songs are very revolutionary, such as "Well Paid Scientist."

Most the lyrics I've seen from the Dead Kennedy's seem to be more from a Anarchic POV rather than a revolutionary Socialist one.

That's certainly the way a lot of punk bands lean anyhow.

I agree, I really like Immortal Technique. I really love his 3rd world album. I think it is probably the closest thing to a Maoist-Third Worldist record.

Here are some of my favorite political songs:

Millions of Dead Cops: John Wayne was a Nazi.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfQsXrhF2X4

I like it because it uses John Wayne to represent amerika and highlights amerikas genocidal war of conquest against the First Nations.

I Remember.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHo9BCfAhI0

I love this song because it focuses on the oppression of youth by the pig amerikan power structure.

Black Flag: White Minority

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmVUE9I75iM

Love this one. I love the way the lyrics are sarcastically written from the point of view of an amerikan fearing a third world uprising.

I agree, he's nice. But my favorite revolutionary rapper is a German guy called MaKss Damage (I know, the name sucks, but whatever.) who raps about topics like killing cops (using interesting expressions like "robocop holocaust"), the restoration of the Soviet Union, Stalin and guerilla war.
