This is a discussion about music NOT politics. Your reply can talk about the artists political views but don’t just start soapboxing yourself and break rule 6. They can/should be from any country talking about any government/political ideal. I think my favorite is either immortal technique or flobots.


Gonna be showing my age here, but I was heavy into the likes of Dead Kennedys, Ministry, the whole D.C. Underground punk scene (Black Flag, Fugazi, etc). Anymore, though, I don’t actively seek out music with strong political messages. I prefer to hear artists sing about their personal experiences, their struggles, triumphs, losses…and a political slant is okay as long as it’s an organic part of the song’s message and not just endless proselytizing or ruining your own music by being a political douchebag. (Looking at you, Ronnie Radke!)
Edit: Almost forgot, dude, if hip hop is your thing, check out Run the Jewels.
I love run the jewels! Agree with the rest of what you said too.
Brother Ali is also an excellent option in that genre, although his most directly political tracks are not his best IMHO.
I have the same opinion. I think his best is the collaboration between immortal technique and killer Mike “Civil war”.
