    This album deserves a grammy.

      Artist like kweli never get that credibility, because the Grammy, to me, much like the oscars, do not hold certain value in lyrics in typical regard. Were this 1965, this album still doesn't get the grammy. 50 years after landmark legislation and an artist rapping the same soul of divergence; this means, there is still something to write in our society.

    Wow. What a beat. Another Kweli banger.
    Glad it's not mainstream... found Kweli about 8-9 years ago and life's not been the same since. It's the loss of other people, and our gain ;)

    NY Hip Hop radio, Hot 97 needs to play more Talib Kweli, but they play Lorde and other such nonsense.

    P.O.C. and Gravitas are 2 of the dopest CDs that have been released in less than 12 months. Word the fuck up! My brother be spittin some of the dopest lyrics 2day!!!! "Such a blessing, I'm making the bread leaven
    Descendant of Terra Firma
    I'm from the era of legend
    The blind to my eyesight
    Too scared of the world ending
    My men of spiritual essence be walking right into heaven
    Ascending without the stairs, expressing without the fears
    We diamonds but our minds are corrupted just like De Beers
    Unravelling minds, travelling through time like langoliers
    Standing with the flow like the man in the gondolier " The Great Talib Kweli

  • @sinsoreshippromotesconform8218

    This song perfectly describes 50 years of hip hop and beyond. When I first heard this song still the same effect as then but more priceless now. Shame it’s so under appreciated but nevertheless timeless 💎.

  • @hildosis42
    @hildosis42 10 лет назад

    I got friends who say Talib is too smart and too lyrical for their liking. And I say "we 30 years old, time too grow up and listen to mature hip hop", See thats what i call Talib Kweli, mature hip hop. As opposed to Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Drake, or most other artists in the limelight right now. Talib's the thinking mans mc, an artist who will shine some light on the issues, rather than be a part of them. Talib will never be hip hops norm......thank god!

    This is why I started listening to HipHop back in the day. Reflection Eternal to this is what makes Kweli timeless! Nothing changes good underground artists because to them its all about the relationship between music and their life. So in essence giving them fame only feeds into their energy of making good music. This song made my day!
