Allusion to Morrison?

By Lidain
mmmkay. I was listening to this....the beat's all right, but do we know whether it's a deliberate or an accidental allusion to Toni Morrison's Beloved (the one that won the Nobel Prize)? If it is, that's amazing(x10^5) But anyhow. A decently listenable song. Not my favorite of his, but pretty good.
Hot Thing

I love this song, it has a kind of old school vibe to it, which got my attention. Will-i-am adds a nice touch to it too. Check it out!
Holy crap!

Is it SO bad for a real MC like TK to do something a little different than his usual stuff? This song, I will admit, strays from his other material. But hey, it's a nice change. It shows he's just a normal guy who appreciates a good woman. Can't a typically backpack MC do something a little different and not be labled as selling out? Lighten up people, no one freaked out when Common made "The Light". Its the same thing on another level. I hope yall can agree with me, this is still fire. Talib, come em coming baby.
No doubt, it's hot!

I'm not sure where all of the negative comments fit in exactly. Any true Kweli fan would respect any work he puts out. And why is it that listeners expect every song that he puts out to be preachy? Other great hip-hop artists such as Jay-Z and Nas have fun records so why can't Kweli? Not only do I believe all of his works are hot because he's Kweli, I believe they are because THEY ARE!!! Kweli is one of the few that STILL do it right, so stand up for hip-hop and show some respect. This album is definitely worth purchasing, and I'm sure EARDRUM will not disappoint- because honestly, when has he ever?!!!
takes more than one listen

As a lounge/club DJ in the Philly area...we are really up on whats hot and what's not...I think this a great, feel good record to put on at the beginning of the evening to get people ready for the night. I'm lovin' will i am on the production, who is one of the most diverse producers out there today. Lyrically, you know what Talib is capable of, so I feel it's ok for him to touch a subject like "a hot lady"...He's human and he likes women..I'm cool wit dat ...I'll be spinning it this weekend!!!

I love this song. Will.i.am created a perfect beat for the summer. I think this could be a hit with a video. Can't wait for EARDRUM!
Hot Song.

It is not only a hot song, but this man has been making great music for years. In a time of, what I would call pathetic rap music, the blacksmith always keeps it real. The man can spit, there is no doubt about that, be he makes good music also.
Really good.
