Repress - Immortal Technique, the most radical revolutionary rap lyricist to hit wax, combines with Green Lantern and a gang of like-minded MCs to produce THE 3RD WORLD, a furious mixtape which is perhaps Immortal Techniques best work to date. The title track is a compelling summary of all the Harlem rapper has proclaimed in his past verses, as he reworks Jay-Zs *Where I m From* into a scathing diagnosis of the state of the world in the 21st century. Tech also breaks down the power structures behind NYC gentrification on *Harlem Renaissance*, deconstructs accepted understandings of pimp on *Reverse Pimpology*, and examines corporate privatization on *Open Your Eyes*. Violent, angry, and unabashedly challenging, THE 3RD WORLD is everything hardcore hip-hop should be.
