    My Art teacher showed me Immortal Technique back in 2006 in my Freshmen year of High School. I listened to rappers like Lil Wayne and T.I. around that time. I loved MTV and never heard about rap music having a message. He played the track "Speak Your Mind" from Revolutionary Vol. 1 and we listened to the song as we had a printed sheet of paper with the lyrics on it. He was like how many of you like HipHop? I raised my hand and he said shout out some names you kids listen to. I obviously said the rappers I was proud to mention and after everyone said their favorites he told us about a rapper he listens to by the name of Immortal Technique. I didn't think much of it afterwards until my Sophomore year. I went back to his class room one day and I asked him.. "Hey Mr. B, umm whats the name of that rapper you showed us last year? ... umm I know it was a year ago but I really want to check him out."
    Boy did he create the kick start to me taking an interest in history and politics. By the time I got to my Senior year I was thinking about my future heavily. I didn't want to be that typical hispanic kid from the ghetto and actually be someone. I decided to go to art school and now have a BA Degree in Graphic Design and started my career. I create conscious art with a message and the purpose I gave myself is to make a mark on the world with art and help others have an open mindset. This man's music really inspired me and I ran with it.
    I want to make him proud and meet him one day and say thank you for being alive, your music really made an impact on me with my life decisions. This is just one way he inspired me but you guys get the gist of it.

      +‫جبريل أوفال‬‎ I truly love how you story illustrates the fact that substance, when confronting shallowness, usually prevails.
      We'll probably never hear of some dude who's into Immortal Technique or Nas, and one day he comes across Pitbull and decides to diss the former in favour of the latter. I'd be real surprised if that every happened. That's like an atheist reading the bible for the first time and exclaiming: "Water-walking Jesus, of course! This makes complete sense!". And then joining a church the following day.
      The realness of life needs no indoctrination.
      Thank you for sharing your story; and part of yourself.

    Immortal Technique is an amazing truthful rapper, I come from Colombia and I'm proud to see this great Latino rapper. What I like about Immortal Technique is that he isn't scared to express what he feels, he says whatever he wants to say. This guy has inspired me by his music he's intelligent and teaches you something new each time you listen to all his songs.

    Immortal Technique was my idol, is my idol, and will always be my idol. My older sister's then boyfriend introduced me to him when I was in middle school. Since then, Tech has had a profound impact on my life. I have always looked toward him for guidance, inspiration, and intellectual insight on the issues that I found important. I often find myself quoting and referring him to my peers. I have to thank God for making such a phenomenal person and overall amazing human being. Viva la revolution!

But he also talks very understandable. And his live performance is INSANE. Man really i'v been to his show in amsterdam a few days ago, sickest show i'v ever seen.

    This is what I grew up with, this man- his lyrics, his wise words and his teachings. This is what my children will grow up with. What kind of society do we live in where an artist like this isn't acknowledged by the mainstream media but an "artist" who makes a sex guide with their shit and recycled lyrics is deemed 'talented'. I guess an artist who consistently educates and challenges our minds intellectually isn't something that the media can benefit from. Mad respect to Immortal Technique.

    Realest words I've ever heard.
    We all think that we can gain power by inflicting pain on others individuals. But, True power comes from people loving you and willing to sacrifice for you, not forcing individuals to sacrifice for you. That’s the difference between “Demanding Respect” and “Commanding Respect”. And anybody who doesn’t know the difference between those two, doesn’t understand respect and probably never got any in their life.

    When you love someone you see yourself as the best that you will ever be through their eyes. You see yourself as the strongest as the prettiest or the most handsome; a person that believes in you so much that you believe in yourself, that's why you feel like you're leaving a part of yourself when you leave that person.

I've been pondering for the longest about whether I wanted to join the corporate world or find a way to make a living on my own doing what I love to do and I am definitely choosing the latter.

    He raises money to build schools in Afghanistan. He went to Haiti after the Earthquakes to help rebuild, stayed there for a few months and assisted in raising donations. He works at many inner city schools to help kids stay out of gangs and get scholarships. He's not some arm-chair-activist, he gets out on the front-lines to help the less fortunate.
