Anyone heard of them? I saw them recommended by Ben Gibbard (DCFC frontman) and I downloaded a few tracks since I couldn't find a retailer. Politically charged, intelligent hip-hop that records a first as the first rap group that I have respect for above 'pond scum.'
Sample lyrics (Blink):
Don't think for a second
I will not question
US foreign policy, imperial aggression
Inventing war for the quenching of the thirst for the oil
Cause money don't trickle down to workers who toil
You see, blood trickles down from the wound to soil
And broken antennas with aluminum foil
Standin on televisions transmitting propaganda
Of millionaire senators and your so-called commander-in-chief
B, I'm telling you, the man is thief
In his hand he holds a plan to ban your freedom of speech
To build a pipeline, put Afghanistan on a leash
when it fights back, blame the Taliban for the breach
