Talib Kweli & Madlib Reunite For ‘Liberation 2’ Album

In 2022 Yasiin Bey and Talib Kweli gotten in touch with Madlib for their second-ever Black Star album (and initially because their 1998 launching), No Fear Of Time. Almost a year later on, Talib and Madlib reunite for their own re-up, Liberation 2.

The follow up to the set’s 2006 album, Liberation 2 is a 15-song drop with functions from a myriad of visitors: Westside Gunn, Q-Tip, Goapele, Pink Siifu, the late Mac Miller, Roc Marciano, Meshell Ndegeocello, Roy Ayers, and even Talib’s kids Diani and Amani.

“This album was composed, tape-recorded and blended over 10 years. It’s extensive in idea however tight in its compound and technique,” Kweli s stated about the job. “People today are analyzing what is most crucial — household, health, health, love. The materialism and debauchery that is stereotypically connected with hip hop has actually lost a few of its appeal. Madlib and I have actually corresponded in our messaging. Never has actually there been a much better time for such sincere, message driven music that commemorates the noises that came prior to us.”

Now here comes the enjoyable part. Like No Fear Of Time, Liberation 2 is — for the time being/foreseeable future — a Luminary unique (Lunminary, obviously, being the house of both the duo’s The Midnight Miracle podcast with Dave Chappelle and Kweli’s solo podcast People’s Party).
