Immortal Technique - The Martyr


The Martyr by Immortal Technique, is IT's fourth album that he released in October 2011 while his fans eagerly wait for his long awaited upcoming album "The Middle Passage". This album came quite unexpected and was a real gift from Immortal Technique to his listeners. They suddenly had 15 new songs to listen to, after a long time of waiting.

Besides the fact that this album came quite unexpected, the true gift was that it was released for free on the internet. With only one objective.. "To burn this for every motherfucker you know!". With the release of this album he most definitely put commercially released albums to shame. It shows that this artist stands behind his art and his message. And that his message should be 'reachable' for everyone, everywhere. This is most definitely your coolest history/political/social science teacher you can ever get!

It happens very rarely that an artist of this caliber puts out a tape with this many quality songs, for free. He returns as usual, hard, raw and takes no prisoners. After you've listened this record I can ensure you, either you learned something new that you want to further read in to. Heard about a great arsenal of artists that are featured on the tracks throughout the album. And.. that you are an Immortal Technique fan!

If you are a hiphophead or just an occasional listen.. I strongly recommend you take some of your and listen to this record carefully! (Download link below!)
