2:36 Thats dope, didn't catch that when the video 1st dropped but the reflection in that mirror is Kweli"s oldest Son and his daughter, Diani, whom also spits like her Father. BeautifuL. KweLi gets my respect for Life for understanding the importance of the energy he projects into the world with his Art. His self-knowledge is manifest in everything he does.

he's not underrated, he's very well rated and recognized. one of the best underground rappers who took it mainstream. his niche is very different though. his lyrics adress a different set of listeners with different taste in music and a different mentality.

Yep. Just popped into my mind today as I sat down to read “An American Dream” again to reminisce about a time when that concept could be considered something that was at least remotely based in reality… Real lyricists become more scarce with each new generation, but that’s why I’m so grateful for the ability to listen to damn near anything I could ever think of wanting to hear in seconds! Fuck, from Dave Brubeck to The Browning to Jaco Pastorious to Strauss to The Disco Biscuits and nearly everything I didn’t list is available too. I never imagined that this would be the future of music when I was a wee lad in the early 80’s.

Real rap. Real message, real people. As a white guy I really believe artist like this are pushed to the bottom by the industry to keep black Americans down by pushing the negative garbage that everyone listens to now. Talib has been one of my fav rappers for years because I feel like the man speaks from the heart.
