Fear No Empire is Ali Tabatabaee, Ben Ozz, Dan Palmer and Mike Cambra By tapping into their punk rock and hip-hop roots, Fear No Empire voice their anger and frustration with the world around them and stand up against racism, oppression, police brutality, voter suppression, anti-LGBTQ+ discrimination and violence, and all forms of social injustice. “When we decided to start a new band, we knew how important it was for us to use our platform to call out injustice and help bring positive change to the world. We are very proud of these songs and the messages they convey,” says Ali Tabatabaee. The lack of leadership and political weaponization of the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S. and other parts of the world, while people are facing serious health and economic hardships, is grotesque. When science and common sense are replaced with attacks on the media, conspiracy theories and absurdly selfish calls for personal rights of freedom, we are all in a disastrous place. “Our goal is to make the music as powerful as our message and hope it resonates with people and inspires them to use their voice,” says Tabatabaee. As the Black Lives Matter movement reverberates worldwide, protests are leading to an awakening and cultural shift as our voices come together in solidarity to fight for change. Fear No Empire is our protest.
