A recommendation by lovelikelife

lovelikelife's recommendation

One of the greatest team ups in Hop-Hop History, Mos Def and Talib Kweli. Came together with their raw and heart-felt lyrics, a cd that created an impact on the hip-hop sound. I saw them both play together and I have to say their raw sound live is the same sound that is put into this CD.

First to recommend

I am dating myself with this recommendation, but this was one of the hip-hop albums that really stuck with me when I was in high school, back when my only source of hip-hop were my classmates who breakdanced and the internet newsgroup I was very involved in. Seriously, I was more involved in hip-hop music than boys, but maybe that wasn't so much by choice....

In any case, this album is a perfect example of constructive late '90s "backpacker" hip-hop, and although released a decade ago, it's still enjoyable and fun today.
