Critics frequently trash hip hop because commercialism dominates the genre. But, as Bakari Kitwana notes in his new book Why White Kids Love Hip Hop, the music serves a higher purpose as a “voice for the voiceless” and a bridge across America’s racial divide. Artists like New York-based rapper Immortal Technique provide that voice, heightening awareness within a community desperate for change.

For both jaded hip hop heads and political activists, Immortal Technique’s music is refreshing. At a sold-out venue, teenagers fall silent as Immortal Technique—also known as Tech—kills the beat and reminds them: “Blacks and Latinos get the worst education/ while devils run America like Birth of a Nation/ affirmative action and reversed discrimination/ that shit is a pathetic excuse for reparations.”

Tech’s activism and authenticity derives from hard life experience. He was born in Peru 27 years ago and his family left when he was 4, fleeing an escalating civil war. They landed in Harlem and, while not delving into his childhood, he admits it was rough. “I tried to go to [college] but I ended up going to prison,” he says.

His epiphany occurred as he rode the corrections bus upstate. “Prison is not the rite of passage that makes you a man. All that hustlin’, robbin’, stealin’, that didn’t make me a real nigga at all,” he says. “When I came home from that and I put money in my mother’s pocket to help support my family, that made me a real nigga.”

During his time behind bars, Tech devoured books about history, religion and civil rights. He wrote often in jail and when he got out, he took that material and eventually produced two albums, Revolutionary Vol:I and  Vol:II. Ambitious titles, but the man has big goals, and with his multi-faceted appeal and a new album, The Middle Passage, he is poised for battle. Vol:II sold 45,000 copies on Immortal Technique’s own label, Viper Records. Moving that many units is an impressive feat in today’s music industry, in which five companies control 90 percent of the music distribution. He and a few other rappers, including M-1 of Dead Prez, organized a hip hop union last fall called G.A.ME. (Grassroots Artist MovEment), whose members receive free healthcare in New York and Philadelphia. “You make more of a political statement by owning a record label than anything you could possibly say on a record,” Tech says.

Despite his progressive political message, sensitive ears will be offended when Tech raps graphically about abortions or what he would do to the mothers and girlfriends of his enemies. But getting caught up in the language misses the point. Tech’s gritty irreverence is precisely what lends him credibility among wary, young hip hop fans. As one aspiring emcee at the Batey told Tech, “I don’t usually like underground hip hop or Latino rappers, but your shit is raw, I love it.”

Live at The Social
mixed by The Chemical Brothers


This track is taken from The Chemical Brothers' 'Live at The Social' mix. Compiled as a taster and souvenir of the legendary Heavenly Social nights...


Excerpt from the Sleeve notes by Robin Turner-
“It was probably a stupid idea, the kind that, if you sat down and thought about it, you’d have laughed about, scrapped and moved on to the next one.
It went like this – get a back room in a dirty old boozer on a Sunday night. Get a pair of DJs who were more renowned for their party rockin’ than their fluid mixing. Get guests , anyone and everyone from pop stars to shit hot DJs and get them to play their favourite records. The only rule – our guys go on last. Build up your own anthems, find new heroes, find your own stimulants. You think you’ll get maybe 70 people, but after 13 weeks when you call it a day, you’re turning away 700. Somebody said ‘blow the whole joint up’. We did.
The Social first rocked the tiny basement of The Albany on Sunday August 6th 1994. In the months since then, it’s shifted venue a few times. Months or years down the line, all you have left as a souvenir of a life affirming night out is a crumpled flyer. With these albums, we’re trying to bring a little slice on the Social into your home."
