Title: Talib Kweli and Hi Tek
Post by: IKON on June 27, 2002, 08:23:55 PM

;D ;D ;D
After hearing Talib on Soundbombing 3 and the new DJ Quik iam really starting to feel him and I've always liked Hi Tek's production.

Are these albums worth swooping up

Hi-Tek - HI Teknology
Talib Kweli and Hi Tek - Reflection Eternal

Both are worth picking up imo, but you definately want to pick up "Train Of Thought" (reflection eternal) without any hesitation. I personally consider it a classic, not only is it a lyrical masterpeice on Kweli's part but the production is something fresh and different, & i'm sure you know this since you like Hi Tek's production. Standout tracks for me include:

"Move Somethin'"
"Some Kind Of Wonderful"
"The Blast" Ft Vinia Mojica
"Memories Live"
"Down For The Count" Ft Rah Digga & Xzibit
"On My Way"
"Love Language" Ft Les Nubians
"Eternalists"
"For Women"

The concepts are everything from political issues to life in general and from this album Kweli has proved that he is one of the best MC's in the game, ever, he's so underrated imo.

totally agree with u there....it's a classic in my eyes...the beat on the second half of africa dream. is good, and he spits some good lyrics...

Reflection Eternal and Hi-Teknology are both hot albums.. Hi Tek is coming up as a producer and Talib Kweli is a real good emcee..
