Talib Kweli and Hi-Tek Hitting The Road
. The two first turned and bobbed heads with their instant classic Train of Thought in 2000 that many felt was the last great contribution to "The Golden Era" of Hip-Hop. Praised for its uplifting messages and earthy vibes, fans have been anticipating a follow-up for more than a decade. The album is exclusively produced by Hi-Tek, and features appearances by Estelle, Bilal, Bun B, Mos Def, Jay Electronica, J. Cole, Res and Chester French. Aside from the denotative meaning�the number of times a record can go around on a record player�Talib Kweli explains the title of the album is two-fold: "It's the idea of revolution through music. It's the idea that people in today's culture take things in YouTube-sized bites and clips and if it's not in a clip or a soundbite or something that you can fit in under a minute, people don't pay attention to it. The idea is: How many revolutions can you get accomplished in under a minute in a quick culture?" Click here to read today's full Day in Pop report Preview and Purchase Talib Kweli CDs |
