Immortal Technique reports on his MySpace blog that he just returned from Afghanistan, where he is building a new school. “This wasn’t done with any corporate funding, everything down to the plane tickets and other travel expenses came from me personally not any donations. The funds we raised through the shows and the people’s donations (including my own) were all reserved for the acquiring of the property, food, clothes appliances, beds for the children, medical supplies, and the infrastructure of the school. This was done with your help, those of you who took part in the support of “The 3rd World†and came to the benefit shows,” he writes in a blog post.
Future plans include continued recording on the long-awaited Middle Passage and, yes, some spot dates across the Eastern seaboard.
