    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.
