I ordered my ticket for Talib Kweli’s show today as well and I can’t wait to stomp to the indig02 on the 31st Jan to see him perform. His last album Eardrum is great stuff if I do say so myself. I mean it debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200 in 2007 when it was released, so I’m sure that statistic counts for something. I love Kweli’s flow. His lyrical genius is weaved so majestically around tracks such as Say Something, featuring the magnificent Jean Grae, (my first ever encounter with her – absolutely amazing) and others such as Eat to Live, Oh My Stars featuring Musiq Soulchild, as well as the lead single Listen!!! – and believe you me, this album really does make you do that. And although it’s a late review from me, Eardrum is definitely worth the listen and definitely worth the buy.
I can't wait. It's gonna be great stuff mate. Check the track list for the album below.
