Yes, that will be the last time that I will listen to "Dancing with the Devil" by Immortal Technique. Some friends of mine were talking about it during playwriting today and thinking of making a play out of it so I was curious and decided to listen.
For those of you that do not know the contents of the song, I will tell you. It is about a boy that all of his life had wanted to be part of a gang. He does all this shit, I dunno pushin drugs or some shit lie that goes to jail and gets out (I cant remember how the first part went) and then he finally gets his chance to be part of a gang. He had a test though. The gang had taken a girl they found and had a bag over her head. The guy had to rape her and kill her. So they go into the rape scene, she got gang banged by eveybody her ribs broken blood everwhere, almost about to die, then he pulls off the bag to shoot her in the head...
and it turned out to be his mother
So he doesnt shoot and decides to jump off a building and kill himself. The mom gets shot too.

This song chilled me to the fucking core. Like, it will forever be burned in my brain, unwelcomed.

Gang rape is freaky shit, do you guys know anybody that has been in a gang or yourself in a gang? if so, do they do this kinda shit to women?

Yes , they do.

yes, I meant to say is this really the way that they initiate the members of the gangs? Are there always these kind of scenes? I don't know much about gang culture

i once knew i niga whos real name was william his primary concern was making a million being the illest hustler the world had ever seen he used to fuckk movie stars and sniff crack in his dreams, a corrupted young mind at the age of 13, niga never had a real father and his mother was a fiend, she put the pipe down, but for every year she was sober her sons heart simutainiously became colder and colder....

yes ive heard that song to many times :(

sniff crack in his dreams

yes ive heard that song to many times :(

I'm pretty sure its sniff coke, why the fuck would someone sniff crack, its made to be smoked.

listen to running with the devil. It's much better.

My girlfriend likes this song...

I think it's, well, fucked up. End of story.

Nice rythym to it, though.

Is your self-fulfilling-prophecy to become a nigger?
It awfully seems that way.

Also, I don't really believe it's necessary to even have knowledge of gang activity to know that things like this really do happen.

Watch the news. People are fucked up. You think this is messed up? Look further into bestiality, necrophilia, etc. The world is corrupt, indeed.

Gangs are detrimental to society. I seriously think that they should just round up everyone with any sort of gang affiliation and just kill them all. Who would really miss them?

And not just black or spanish gangs, but asian and white ones too.

Crips, Bloods, KKK, MS-13, Yakuza, Hell's Angels, YMCA, Boy Scouts, etc

They all need to be eradicated for the betterment of humanity.

LOL@you for equating gang rape +murder with bestiality and necrophilia.

Silly goose.

*reads between the lines*

So you wanna get gang raped. Fucking troll.

That shit doesn't really happen very often. The killing them part at least, I don't know about the raping, but considering that statistically the vast majority of rapes are committed by people who know the victim personally it seems unlikely.

He turned away from the woman that had once given him birth,
And crying out to the sky because he was lonely and scared,
But only the devil responded, because God wasn't there.
And right then he knew what it was to be empty and cold,
And so he jumped off the roof and died with no soul.
They say death takes you to a better place but I doubt it.
After that they killed his mother, and never spoke about it.
Listen because the story that I'm telling is true,
Because I was there with Billy Jacobs and I raped his mom, too.
And now the devil follows me everywhere that I go,
In fact, I'm sure he's standing among one of you at my shows,
And every street cypher listening to little thugs flow,
He could be standing right next to you, and you wouldn't know.
The devil grows inside the hearts of the selfish and wicked,
White, brown, yellow and black; color is not restricted.
You have a self destructive destiny when you're inflicted,
And you'll be one of God's children who fell from the top.
There's no diversity because we're burning in the melting pot.
So when the devil wants to dance with you, you better say never
Because a dance with the devil might last you forever.

yeah it was pretty crazy, when io heard the song 4 years ago... now.. not so much

immortal technique got beat up by a group of 13 y/o white kids, and thrown down some stairs for an argument he got in on a message board. Just thought you guys should know.

"Because I was there with Billy Jacobs and I raped his mom, too.
And now the devil follows me everywhere that I go,"

do you guys think that the Immortal Technique rapper is saying this for real? that he did that shit?

No, it's just a bunch of bullshit to make him appear more "gangsta" and sell more albums.

I think we should just dump them all on an island somewhere and let them kill each other. Same for rapists and pedophiles, although the pedophiles would only be the creepy 35+ year old men who molest 7 year old girls, not 20 year old guys who fuck 16 year olds with fake ID's.

Your a really fucking retarded shit.

I just acquired this song.
I'm not impressed.

I just acquired this song.
I'm not impressed.How can you not like it, it's a rap about gang rape over, IIRC, Burt Bacharach's Strangers in the Night :p

I prefer The Point of No Return, though.

I fucking hate rap, but I'm a fan of Immortal Technique, because he's insane and a socialist. Besides, how many other rappers out there can reference the Crusades, aliens, Nat Turner, and the Biblical apocalypse all in one song? Not enough, says this reporter.

Yes, they really do that shit to women. I thought this was going to be a positive thread talking about Immortal Technique who is an insane artist and lyricist. I have to say this is a good topic and brought back memories of that song. I now think you are only half a whore :)

Did you just say nice rhythm to it? Get some sense son!

Your a moron if you think bestiality or necrophilia are the same as this scenario. Which leads me to believe you're a dip shit. Especially since you didn't realize that guy was quoting lyrics you fucking moron.

Sorry, but gangs are a result of there being so much poverty and lack of protection in "ghetto" areas.

No, it's just a bunch of bullshit to make him appear more "gangsta" and sell more albums.

He's telling a story through that guy's perspective. Ignorant pieces of shit like yourself should flush themselves.

You aren't impressed because you don't know a fucking thing about rap, you bitch with abnormal tits.

Yeah boy, Immortal Technique has some pretty crazy lyrics, you really got to listen to his ass.

Source?

LOL You obviously don't know shit about Immortal Technique.

If You Count The Number Of People I've Sent To Heaven

If You Count The Number Of People I've Sent To Heaven

for those that havent heard it

Your crew is full of more faggots than Greek mythology

That's one of my favorite lines. I also like the song dominant species:

I'm on the brink of insanity, between extreme intelligence and split personalities
But I elevate to the point of reversing gravity
Revolutionary conceptuality spitting out of me
Even the dead people in my family tell me they proud of me
Stupidity's not allowed by me
Cuz I don't got time to play

[....]

"I'm infinite like possibilities
But you don't have the capability like infertility
Cuz opening your mouth to question my validity
Is like trying to contradict the theory of relativity
When I spit is the epitome of heavy artillery
My enemies are obsessed with me like the bitch in Misery
But break out like father running form responsibility
Every time I step and abuse the mic with versatility
I balance humility, with brutal instinct
I'll make your whole cypher look like those crackers from N'Sync [....]And remember something nigga, while you rave and rant
A roach can live for nine days without its head but you can't"

[.....]
Technique is exquisite
I'll make your thoughts a victory
Get pessimistic with the quickness
If you think that I will just become another statistic with anything but success
When I bless the mic as I spit this
Specifically prolific with coprocessor coma type sickness
My style is like a ten year old child with a slit wrist, too much reality
For the fucking hit list
I got a Black Panther mentality with a spick fist
So you can get dissed
Even if you're locally gold, vocally bold, or globally
Multi-platinum sold
I'm emotionally cold, disciplined, and ready to kill
Like spirits in the same room with you, I'm giving you chills
I drop knowledge while these mother fuckers clumsily spill
And I drop it so heavy, it leaves the world unbalanced
Exterminate the spiritual force of all that challenge
I'm the lyrically apocalypse that crumbles the granite
Replacing you as the dominant species on the planet............

Even if it is just empty trash talk it's high brow trash talk. About dozens of IQ points higher than "IM HOT B-CUZ FLY, AND U AINT CUZ U NOT"

Aesop ftw.

Heard that song a few years back and it tripped me out. Just listened to it again and and just can't appreciate it for any musical talent... I knew the beat was bad the first time I heard it but fuck, that beat is bad. And the lyricism isn't nearly as impressive as I remembered it to be. The story is fucked but really that is all the song has going for it.

A good writer will incorporate his own life experiences into his work.

A great writer can fabricate such experiences in such a realistic manner that they are really believable.

Why can't people accept that this can be true of music?

And why never listen to the song again? Too much reality (for the fucking hit list)?

No, I don't, because rap sucks.

Lol you obviously don't know shit about rap.

dang, this song is fucked. ive never understood the concept of being in a gang. don't see a point?

And you're a pathetic wretch that bitches and moans on Totse all day.

Still bitter that no one has touched your dick?

I'll fist fuck your pussy face holding a hand grenade

FUCK YEAH!
