Talib Kweli Way Quotations

Ain't nobody making music to not be heard and the easiest way to be heard is to be on the radio, but you should never compromise who you are, your values or your morals.

The way I see it, if people truly love my music, they will support me in some way down the road.

Let me finish my music, and let me present it the way I want to present it. And then share it, put it online, do whatever you want to do after that.

I feel like I have way more resources, way more experience. I'm better. But my fans romanticize the earlier stuff, and I don't think it's just like a nostalgia thing of "He's not as good" - I think it's because that earlier stuff was aggressively marketed as a lifestyle to them.

Hopefully, we learn to appreciate hip-hop here so that it doesn't go the way of jazz.
