Title: I saw Talib Kweli live in concert yesterday
Post by: CRAFTY on September 24, 2005, 05:47:36 AM
Good show! The Pharcyde opened up for him...I wasn't really feeling them though. Probably because I only know their more famous songs...
Anyway, I was on the 1st row (there was no security either, so everyone at the front shook hands with Kweli). He performed both old & new songs:

Get By
Move Somethin'
Good To You
I Try
Definition
Going Hard
Never Been In Love
We Got The Beat
etc...

During "We Got The Beat", he asked if there were any B-Boys in the house to come up on stage and show the rest of the crowd their moves. That was pretty cool of him. He also busted a nice freestyle on the beat of "Get 'Em High" in which he said something like "Fuck George Bush, I'm running for President" ;D The whole crowd loved it...

Anyway, dope concert. Worth the money. It was all about beats & rhymes on-stage. No champagne bottles, no chains flashing, none of that. 100% Hip-Hop

^^^^Sounds cool indeed!
I haven't seen Common or Kanye West perform though. I'm hoping for them to do a European tour actually...especially since Common's album is doing so good.
