    Immortal Technique is arguably one of the finest MCs out there.

    I really like Talib Kweli,Nas, and Mos Def also....and of course some of the legends like KRS 1 and Rakim

    I couldn't find any other stuff from Abdominal on youtube that even comes close to the one you posted. It seems he's not reaching his potential much of the time.

    At his best, he reminds me of Del tha Funkee Homosapien.

    That Immortal Technique dude is sick though.
    It is time to admit that we used to rock like hurricanes. It is time to run for the hills and go round and round. It is time for us to shout at the devil. We've got the right to choose it, there ain't no way we'll lose it, and we're not gonna take it anymore.

    Immortal Technique's lyricism is incredible. His flow is a wee bit clunky though. I've seen him win some rap battles that he clearly got trounced in in terms of technique just because his actual wordplay is incredible. Both Revolutionary albums are stunning.
