Talib Kweli Talks Gutter Rainbows, Prisoners of Conscious, Goonish Rap & Being A Better Writer (Video)

In-between recording and shooting a music video in London, Kweli spoke to SoulCulture TV about his displeasure at the gig of the night before, his experiences of the UK’s Capital and why he chose to shoot a video here for a song from his new album, Gutter Rainbows. He also discusses how he perceives his lyrical growth across albums and another album he is also working on titled Prisoners Of Conscious, describing the former project as “like the early outtakes of Prisoners Of Conscious, but embellished upon.”

  8. Talib Kweli, the same person that preaches respect for women in his music told a woman that works at The Roundhouse to “shut the fuck up” and “eat a dick”. Maybe Talib Kweli is another example of a rapper who doesn’t do what he preaches.
