Talib Kweli

LanceStorm

Anyone heard his stuff yet??
I first heard him on Kanye West's album in the song 'Get Em High', was impressed, but then ive heard his new single ''I Try" with Mary J Blige and was even more impressed, hopefully an albums on the way soon!!

He already has three albums out and has been around way longer than Kanye West

Get Reflection Eternal's album, Train of Thought. It's his best album by far, the produciton on it's top notch and Hi-Tek really suits Talib's style.
If you can still pick it up Soundboming 1 is worth having for 2000 Seasons, (second favourite Talib song) Fortified Live and What if? (it's a great album anyway, just since you like Kweli).
Also pick up Lyricist Lounge 1 (Manifesto's on it, favourite Kweli song). Besides Talib on that album, it's just worth having. Lots of good songs.
Blackstar is a decent album to.
I'm not a huge fan of his newest stuff, but it still ain't that bad. I'm hoping he does another album with Hi-Tek.

I saw Soundbombing Vol1 in HMV Grafton St. a couple of weeks ago. It was in the compliations section, not the hip-hop one.

There's a fourth Talib album, don't think it's legit though, and is possibly just songs of his taken off complilations. It's called The Elder Statesman.

I was very surprised to hear him on Kanye West album, i wouldnt have put the two of them together? I Would hold Talib in a much higher standing than Kanye.

Kanye West produced songs for him on Quality.
Repaying the favour I suppose.

Kanye and Talib are good friends I think. They're both from chicago.

Makaveli

Talib Kweli is from Cincinnati.

David19

Actually we're both wrong, he's from brooklyn.

Talib is one of the best mc's out there at the moment imo,
all his material is, well, Quality! all his albums have meaningful lyrics, nice beats and good production.
Blackstar and Reflection Eternal are two of my favourite albums, the recent solo stuff is as solid as ever Quality and The Beautiful Struggle are both very good albums, better than Kanye will ever be
Would've loved to see him over here but wasnt gonna pay over €50 to see him along side that fat mess missy elliot
Hopefully him and Mos come over, now that would be Quality!

He's supporting Kanye West at his gig in the point on the 20th or whatever. They're also playing Vicar street afterwards (well better)...but all tickets are sold out afaik...

Cannibal Ox

****, I heard Kweli was touring in America at the time and wouldn't be coming over.
****,...I had the chance to pick up a ticket for Vicar Street and all.

The reflection eternal album is brilliant, wasnt too fond o quality and even less so his new one
