that line about "Japenese, Chinese, or even Asain" still gives me a headache
many of you list MC's who have strong political views and rap for the purpose of delivering a message as 'least ignorant'. You can deliver this message pretty ignorantly tho, as in ignoring what others have to say about it or ignoring certain aspects, being biased etc; KRS has said enough ignorant stuff in his career"Nature Of The Threat" has a lot of ignorance to it, people get too impressed by his lexical knowledge. Immortal Tech talks about "destroying your religion" and how you're fake if you're a christian with blue eyes, just cause blue-eyed pale whites are not the origins of christianity (might as well call black muslims fake then). ignorance IMOwhat i'm trying to say, "strong interest in serious issues and politics = not ignorant" is not true. There are of course the 'conscious' rappers who are not ignorant at all like Talib Kweli, but it's not all MC's that fall into that 'category'
nelly is also close to chingy"if this aint the truth then hopefully its not a lie"

I agree with you especially for the Ras Kass is a overrated retard part, yet I think you got that Immortal Tech line wrong:"Immortal Technique will destroy your religion you stupid bitchyou're faker than blue-eyed crackers nailed to a crucifix"All he's saying is that Jesus wasnt a blue-eyed pale guy, yet is often depicted like that, which is true.

What this makes me question though, is how this is supposed to 'destroy a religion'. It is not christian base value that Jesus was 'Arian' or even that you have to look like that being a christian...so how is correcting the image many people got of Jesus 'destroying your religion you stupid bitch' (i know the last part of the line was just so it rhymes)....?
