Born in a military hospital in South America, Immortal Technique was brought to Harlem in the early 1980s. Within the world of New York underground rap battles, his brutally disrespectful style was trade- mark. Being featured in XXL, The Washington Post, and having been titled with the hip-hop quotable in for his sophomore inde- pendent release Revolutionary Vol.2 was just the beginning. Two albums, The Middle Passage and The 3rd World, would follow Revolutionary Vol. 2 and complete the series. In 2011 Immortal Technique released The Martyr, a free compilation album of previously unreleased material and new tracks. A documentary about Immortal Technique was released in September 2011 and premiered at the Harlem Film Festival. Be sure to come out to WOW Hall for this night of conscious hip- hop and cultural activism, featuring two of the most talented touring rappers in the game right now.
