The Brooklyn-based MC earned his stripes as one of the
most lyrically-gifted, socially aware and politically insightful rappers
to emerge in the last 20 years.
“I’m a touring artist. I’m an artist that’s internationally known.
I’m not just a local artist at this point in my career. I’m cognizant of
the fact that what I do is beyond where it started. I’m trying to reach
the apex of where I am now, but without turning my back on or
dismissing what I’ve done before.”
After nearly 20 years of releasing mesmerizing music, Talib Kweli
stands as one of the world’s most talented and most accomplished Hip Hop
artists. Whether working with Mos Def as one-half of Black Star,
partnering with producer Hi-Tek for Reflection Eternal, releasing
landmark solo material or collaborating with Kanye West, Pharrell
Williams, Just Blaze, J Dilla, or Madlib, Kweli commands attention by
delivering top-tier lyricism, crafting captivating stories and showing
the ability to rhyme over virtually any type of instrumental.
In 2011, Kweli founded Javotti Media, which is self-defined as “a
platform for independent thinkers and doers.” Kweli has set out to make
Javotti Media (which released his 2011 album, Gutter Rainbows, and is named after his paternal grandmother) into a media powerhouse that releases music, films and books.
