The Coup

[Zero]

Whoa, I usually don't listen to Hip-Hop, but I was searching around YouTube for good leftist videos (it's what I do when I can't think of anything else to do :lol: ) and I came across some video for someone or something, but it had this song from a band called The Coup. So I Googled em, and their music kicks ass!

Yeah i love The Coup, they're fucking awesome. Riley's flow is damn near seamless (and great political content of course!), and the beats are fucking catchy as hell, just really really awesome, hard to find on limewire though unfortunately! I've don't have nearly as much of The Coup as i'd like, i reckon i'm just gonna go all out and buy Pick A Bigger Weapon, all the tracks ive heard off it so far have been fucking sweet-as, so yeah, it'll definately be worth the $$$.

We - we are the ones
We'll seal your fate, tear down your state, go get yo' guns!

the coup make sum of the best political hip hop around, real funky whihc is a change from a lot of political hip hop which is darker (bt still great).
a couple of interviews ive read of boots an he seems pretty spot on intellectually. perhaps more than any other leadin light in hip hop.
im hopin 2 pick up the 'best coup dvd ever' which is new to release n apparently has loadsd of interviews with boots an pam, some tourin an sum videos. looks gd.

I thought Pick a bigger weapon was dissapointing, many of the songs are lame as hell, well maybe i just dont understand what hes getting at.
