I remember reading interview with some old rock & roll musician and he said something like “people keep asking me why I’m not as rebellious anymore and I’m like ‘dude, I’m 50 and I have kids now. It’s your generation’s turn to rebel’”. So yeah, Zach is 55 now…

I mean, he did do that one song with RTJ not that long ago and stuff, I more meant I wish he’d done some solo rap after Rage. Obviously dude had a lot of valuable shit he was getting done and I get why he didn’t, I just like his rap a lot and think it would have been really nice to have more of him doing straight hip hop. Oh well.

Zach did his last album when he was about 30. Sure maybe it’s too late now, but I really want to know what was actually going on with him in the 00s. Some people even suspect three letter agency involvement, and TBH that sounds about as likely as any other explanation.

Who on earth downvoted this masterpiece?

Probably the same people who are mad that RATM got political
SmackemWittadic@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Absolutely. Saying “Rage against the machine got political” is like saying “water got wet”

Weapons, not food, not homes, not shoes.
Not need, just feed the war cannibal animal.

The fact that every single RATM song is applicable 30 years later has shown that humans are not capable of governing themselves effectively.

There was just another thread where people were talking about how many Gen Xers have gone full MAGA, but Rage is a quintessential Gen X band. Wtf happened
