Otep brings Trump To The Gallows.

BackLogJoe · May 28, 2018

Ive always liked Otep. I wish some more mainstream musicians would go on an all out attack.

Otep is rap/rock but its not masculine fueled rage. The singer is a woman who is gay and vegan and these themes are in her music. She hates Trump, obviously. lol.

Shadybiz · May 28, 2018

I listened to Otep back in the day; always liked their style.

While this song has many truths in it, I thought it was only okay. I also disagree that we're on the brink of WW3.

MadJakeChurchill · May 28, 2018

Feel like they rely on "come on!" a bit too much.

Truly Gargantuan · May 28, 2018

This almost sounds like a parody of actual politically charged rap/rock, it's so generic.

Otep rules

More anti Trump stuff, zzz.

Oh boy, not my type of music to say the least.

Wamb0wneD · May 28, 2018

This sounds like Limp Bizkit with worse production lmao.

This sounds like some WWE wrestler's entrance theme.

Sounds like a RATM rip-off. But nice.

Thank God for Pearl Jams George W. Bush-song:

This is my reaction as well. The lyrics in particular seem pretty bad.

my exact thoughts.

Bitanator · May 28, 2018

Otep finally crawled out of the rock that was 2004 to find their style of music should have stayed hidden under that rock

Deleted member 13560 · May 28, 2018

I used to listen to Otep back in the day and I did enjoy it back in the day, but I feel like every album release after the first just got worse and worse. There's people out there who do a better job at delivering politically charged messages through hip hop metal.

Hyro The Hero - Bullet (You'll have to watch on YouTube)

His new album hits next month. Been listening to him since 2008. He's been around for years, but it feels like he's really knocking it out of the park now. I feel like he and his band does this better.

Also you got:

Prophets of Rage
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ad4MH7fMLs

Ice-T's Body Count
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuag9wcGYI0

Powerflo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41LBegOuzyk

Arch Enemy's Alissa White-Gluz is a powerful person. The band handles political issue in their songs as well, but without hip hop. (Will have to watch this on YouTube as well.)

These bands also focus in on more broader issues than just focusing in on one person.

I was afraid I'd be the only one saying it for a second there. Really not feeling this song and, if its in line with the rest of their songs, the band in general. Glad you enjoyed it at least.

From what I remember of their first album, they used to be far more visceral.

Deleted member 21220 · May 28, 2018

This song is terrible and Otep doesn't have a leg to stand one considering the shit she's done to other people and bands on tour with her. She's a bad person, in a bad band, with bad songs.

ArkhamFantasy · May 28, 2018

I like otep, especially generation doom.

Glad she incorporated the pee pee tape into the song.

PSqueak · May 28, 2018

I kinda laughed by the fact that OP felt the need to tell us the singer is Vegan.

Deleted member 21255 · May 28, 2018

Shame on OP for not posting the album cover as well

Unspoken90 · May 28, 2018

Even when I was into this type of music I thought Otep was lame. Not feeling it.

Wrapped in Black · May 28, 2018

this couldn't be more generic if they tried

Same. The "rap/rock" descriptor is completely new to me in regards to Otep. The video in the OP doesn't sound ANYTHING like what I remember, sadly.

I haven't listened to them since maybe a few tracks off their second album, which I wasn't into. Is Kitty still a thing?

ALSO: +100pts to the poster who dropped the Arch Enemy video in here. AE is legit metal and I was so happy when the new singer turned out to be a great pick. *opens Spotify*

Otep brings Trump To The Gallows.

Still doesn't have a tag :'(
