Immortal TechniqueFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Felipe Andres Coronel (born February 19, 1978), better known by the stage name Immortal
Technique, is a Peruvian rapper, and an urban activist. He was born in Lima, Peru and raised in
Harlem, New York.[2]
Most of his lyrics focus on controversial issues in global politics. The views
expressed in his lyrics are largely a mixture of socialist commentary on issues such as class
hierarchy, poverty, religion, government and institutional racism.
Immortal Technique has voiced a desire to retain control over his production,[3]
and has stated in
his music that record companies, not artists themselves, profit the most from mass production and
marketing of music. He claimed in an interview to have sold close to 200,000 copies of his threeofficial releases.
