About Dead Prez
Dead Prez, the influential hip hop duo hailing from New York City, emerged in the late 1990s with a mission to ignite social consciousness and inspire change. Comprised of M-1 and stic.man, the duo is renowned for their confrontational style and unapologetic lyrics that delve into themes of social justice, self-determination, and Pan-Africanism. Their debut album, "Let's Get Free," released in 2000, is a landmark in politically charged hip hop, blending sharp lyricism with bold themes of empowerment. Inspired by revolutionary figures like Malcolm X and the groundbreaking hip hop group Public Enemy, Dead Prez delivers a powerful message that resonates with fans of east coast and hardcore hip hop. Their commitment to ethical principles extends to their stance against corporate control over media and hip hop record labels, making their music not just an album, but a statement of resistance and empowerment.
