Talib is a top 5 MC, yet nobody gives him the respect he deserves. I remember bumping this CD on repeat in high school. Talib holds it down for true hip-hop!

Talib is a GOAT, I've been saying that a long time ago.

[@grigorigahan]

If I could rap, I'd want to rap like Kweli. Oh well, I can enjoy their music all the same. Its a shame all Hip Hop can't be even half as good as Kweli plus Def, Common and Nas

Just Blaze always been one of my favorite producers. He always had some hard hip hop beats but at the same time he knew how to put some soul into the music too. Can’t too many producers do that.

Nate D Thanks bro but I was saying I wish I knew how to sample not what the sample is

[@GoldLemons]

+kapone815 ha, my bad. I see that now that I re-read your comment

[@jidhouston1808]

this is actually a pretty simple sample i think its only one loop then he chopped the ooo ooo part so it could just keep going over and over like he did with the what we do sample for jay z and beans.

[@lyrics2challenged]

Love songs don't even make radio anymore lmao. Not from hip-hop. Mos, Jean, Talib, Common, etc. If it ain't them, it's not being made at all.

[@Jj-fr6rj]

Good music with a hot beat is never out of style.

[@trentyates418]

Kweli is one of the most tightest and underrated lyricists in rap, and of course Just Blaze is one of the best beatmakers ever.

It's always magic when two giants link up on a record... You gotta love the samples from Just Blaze. Timeless!!!
