48. Talib Kweli – “Everything Man”
Produced By Madlib ~ Album: Listen (2007)
What other better way to start a Talib Kweli album then with a spoken word poetry jam with a drum circle in play?
Talib starts off his classic Listen album with some smooth tones from Madlib and of course, knowledge is dropped. The song is topped off nicely with recorded statements of people’s first Kweli experiences.
Memorable Lines:
Your Alpha and your Omega, your beginning and your end
Your father, your brother, your lover your friend
The blood in your vein that gets spilled and, runs in the drain
That’s right my flow one and the same, the joy and the pain
My name, the burner that destroy the toy and the train
All city all night I’m enjoyin the fame
