I feel global political oppression or global wars usually produce great music but Macklemore might be the peak.

Nothing against him, some of his songs are good, but I expected real rage inducing stuff with everything going on. Or is this just the state of music as a whole?

More mainstream artists like Macklemore, Bob Vylan, Kneecap are also out there fighting the good fight.

    Check out Jesse Welles for more folky protest music.

    He also has non-protest music too, but some good recent protest and political songs include:

    The Ballad of Big Balls

    Join Ice

    Starve Away

    The List

    Sometimes You Bomb Iran

    The Great Caucasian God

    My Billionaire Daddies Are Fighting
