About

TALIB KWELI IN CONCERT:

When it comes to socially conscious hip hop, Talib Kweli is in a class all by himself. Combining a distinctly stylish delivery, a gift for intricate rhymes, and a passionate political message, his expertly produced tracks are just as likely to inspire debate as they are dancing. Whether he's collaborating with DJ Hi-Tek or rolling solo, Kweli always delivers a top-notch performance -- which is precisely why fans are so fired up about his 2014 Black Star reunion dates with longtime collaborator Mos Def.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Brooklyn-born rapper Talib Kweli Greene initially broke into the rap game through the Beat Junkies' Lyricist Lounge mixtape project. His subsequent work in Cincinnati with the group Mood resulted in a collaboration with producer Hi-Tek, with whom he has enjoyed a career-spanning creative partnership. While these projects made clear his prodigious talent, it wasn't until he linked up with Mos Def as Black Star that he really achieved widespread success. The critical and commercial success of their debut album Mos Def & Talib Kweli are Black Star played a major role in the record industry's growing recognition of underground hip-hop as a serious force, becoming a genre classic in the process. With six solo records now under his belt and a Black Star reunion hitting venues in 2014, the sky is the limit.

FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:

"Never seen Kweli live before, but I'll never forget it. Went out and bought Gutter Rainbows after it, and it's the real deal! Please go support our indie artists!"

"This bought back memories of being a teenager and jamming to REAL MUSIC. It was worth getting home late. Great show. Lots of energy."

"Absolutely amazing! These guys played their hearts out and rocked the place."

    Danced all night!

    by ToniLove on 6/5/17The Foundry - Philadelphia

    I am 50+ and I treated my niece who is half my age and we literally danced all night! The music was incredible and both DJs were approachable and fed the crowd all night so intuitively. Definitely worth every dime!

    Literally the worst concert experience ever. The venue opened an hour late. The doormen were rude to our guests. The sound engineers didn't show up. And Talib didn't show up until just before 3am. On a weeknight. Never again BB Kings.

    Talib rocked the Belasco!!!

    by Dj3Wayz on 1/23/17The Belasco Theater - Los Angeles

    Amazing show! Talib, Styles P, and K.Valentine all performed well. Talib even brought out Treach, Anderson Pak, and Nicole Is!!! Other than the drink prices nothing to complain about with the show itself. Awesome performances all around!

    Styles P from the Lox, Trench from naughty by nature, k Valentine and Talib Kweli all hit the stage. Talib, the headliner was maybe the most disappointing. He only did a handful of songs. Show started at 8:40 , but doors opened at 7pm. Drove an hour to see. Dj started show with mixing for 25 minutes, I could go to any night club for that. K Valentine was good. Styles P was great, He jumped into the crowd. He really was partying with us. Would go to his show, but Talib Kweli did not deliver the goods. As a fan I would still buy his album, but never again drive an hour in traffic on a Thursday for him to be on stage for maybe 45 minutes.

    All for Immortal Tech

    by Duranman on 5/9/15Paradise Rock Club - Boston

    I'm going to be honest and say that I only went to see the great, incredible, legendary Immortal Technique. It was worth it. He rocked the crowd and put on an intense performance. His crew was really talented as well; I heard some ill rhymes that night.

    Kweli delivers once again!

    by NickiTricky on 4/18/15Paradise Rock Club - Boston

    Kweli is always an amazing performer seen him several times and it is always absolutely worth it. The openers were pretty damn impressive too. These lyricists have a great message too. Always about equality and respect to all races and genders.

    by killerbeasy on 4/11/15Masquerade - Atlanta

    The was a great show, but with a 7 o'clock start the show was over around twelve. I would have rather have had the option to sit down.
