Talib Kweli. is my favorite MCs. Yes, my fave. While everyone was falling in love with Mos Def during the drop of Black Star, I was falling in love with Talib. His lyrical flow is deep in content and high in skill. Although his lastest album, "Eardrum" wasn't that much of a hot thing, being a true fan I could not NOT get a hold of his newest album, "Gutter Rainbows." Because "Gutter Rainbows" is under a more underground label, you would not be able to find this album at your local Best Buy. Not even Vegas' Zia Recrods had a copy on its release date. Luckily I was in San Francisco for the weekend and Amoeba did not let me down. Best $15 I've spent in a while. Talib is baaaack!! Don't let your eardrums miss out on this one cuz it's been bangin on mines since I got it.
"...I truly believe what a fan wants is for an artist to express themselves honestly...even if that artist is in a brand new place. The challenge for the artist is to be so good at their craft that they lead their fans on the journey with them..." -Talib
Here's one of my favorite tracks on the album "Mr. International." aaand It's produced by S1!!
