    I'm not the biggest RatM fan but I always love a good dunk by Morello. Dude is based.

        Nice, playing it now.

        This is as dope as when I found out Serj from SoaD has been doing solo stuff for years.

            If you know any other protest/worker music type stuff similar to this I'm curious.

              So, when I was looking for stuff like that, what I found really useful was looking for people who did covers of Which Side Are You On, John Brown's Body, The Internationale, and Bella Ciao.

              That being said, here's a list of based artists, or artists who have based shit. Lot of it's gonna be rap or rock.

              • Pete Seeger
              • Utah Phillips
              • The Nightwatchman - Tom Morello
              • Chumbawumba (On top of just being awesome they have an entire album of old ass English Rebel Songs. Fire.)
              • Dead Pioneers
              • Dead Prez
              • The Coup (Anything Boots Riley does is Fire)
              • Street Sweeper Social Club (Boots Riley and Tom Morello!)
              • Rebel Diaz
              • Dog Park Dissidents
              • Saul Williams
              • Marc Ribot (Check out his songs of resistance album)
              • Bambu
              • Billy Woods
              • Brother Ali
              • Lowkey
              • Modena City Ramblers
              • David Rovics
              • Carsie Blanton

              I thnk I'm tapped out for now. As we got towards the bottom of the list I'm less familiar but they've got some decent songs.

              edit: OH!!!

              idk if I'd put Springsteen on the list on his own nowadays, but he does have The Ghost of Tom Joad which is just chefs-kiss. Here he is doing it with Tom Morello https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9f-F1CAB24 I could listen to this on repeat for hours.... I have.
