At a moment when times are getting tougher than tough, the neglected 99% are standing up and making their voices heard by taking it to the streets in unprecedented numbers, creating a grass roots movement that is sweeping the country. Inspired by these recent events, the compilation presented here provides a soundtrack for the movement with a collection of songs spanning multiple genres and eras that give voice to the disenfranchised in a meaningful way. Featuring songs from the folk, blues, reggae and R&B pantheon, the collection offers meaningful social commentary and unifying themes. From legendary bluesman Leadbelly's famous diatribe against the powers that be in "Bourgeois Blues" to Third World's Bunny Rug's rallying cry of "Takin' It to the Streets," this compilation strives to provide a voice for the 99% everywhere.
