@DeliaChristina aaand (sorry for the string of replies, I'm going through my "Labor" playlist and finding so much good stuff I haven't heard in a while!) one of my favorite rappers, who used to the county commissioner of one of the counties near me and is a local DSA member LINQUA FRANQA has some great stuff! "Wurk" is probably my favorite:
@DeliaChristina okay, okay, hopefully last one for a while (sorry not sorry!): a lot of TMBG probably fits the bill too!

Finest Worksong by REM. (The time to rise, has been engaged)
Actually there are several songs on the Document album written as protest songs to Reagan policies.
Rhythm Nation by Janet Jackson will work also. -

Some years ago a banjo player Desert Rat was throwing out songs that remind me of the stuff Jesse Welles is doing nowBut he only did one home-made CD right after the WTO protests in 1999 as far as I know. The distribution just wasn’t there like YouTube now
This is a later recording of one of those songs
“When the Tear Gas Fills the Sky”

Different from most other examples, I recently came across this book covering music put out by actual workers to support their strikes and movements🪧STRIKE WHILE THE NEEDLE IS HOT: A DISCOGRAPHY OF WORKER'S REVOLT
https://www.commonnotions.org/buy/strike-while-the-needle-is-hotWorth suggesting to your local library and bookstores, and picking up a copy for yourself 📚

(looking at you, the part of the fediverse with vinyl collections you haven't talked about in a while. now is your time to shine.)@DeliaChristina The 70s was a good time for this kind of song. "Because all men are brothers" has a great anthem-like tune and its easy to sing. Also, someone has updated the lyrics to make it gender inclusive.
