Very similar in scope to The 3rd World. Immortal Technique in aggressive political mode here, kind of one dimensional not showing the great battle rap skills of Obnoxious or the creative story telling skills of You Never Know or Dance With The Devil (altho Rich Mans World is a fun concept track from the perspective of the 1%). This is essentially a reply in conscious with the OWS and the Hip Hop personification of Zeitgeist. Still, if you liked the conspiracy theory babble of 3rd World, you'll like this. Tech got some ferocious lines and verses on this, beats are pretty standard for Tech but they always are.

What do you think?
