Promoting Natural Beauty, Saluting the Independent Individual

Watching hip hop legend Immortal Technique perform is not a “lean-back-and-listen” experience. His music is too challenging, his style too engaging. He brings his audience along as he confronts stereotypes and inequalities head-on, refusing to accept the status-quo or to give in to mass market expectations. Part entertainment and part education, the effect of Tech’s live performance is greater than the sum of its parts.

Such was the case at Brooklyn’s Public Assembly when Immortal Technique blessed those assembled with a blistering set of righteous music, pulling material from across his catalog including tracks that are featured on his new DVD project The (R)evolution of Immortal Technique.

Immortal Technique – Natural Beauty

Natural Beauty Lyrics

They corrupted the priceless African image of Isis
Replaced it with a lifeless anorexic white bitch
The fashion industry got 'em in a funny spot
Self hatred leakin' out they mouth like a money shot
Movie star, Hollywood Babylon fantasy

Toast To The Dead Lyrics

[Chorus]
Rest in Peace
Here’s another warriors song, rep this life to the fullest
Mothafucka, say yo’ prayers!
For brothers who died from black-on-black violence
