December 3, 2017 Albumism Staff

#36
Talib Kweli | Radio Silence
Javotti Media/3D | Official Store | Amazon | iTunes

According to Jesse Ducker: “With Radio Silence, he’s created an album that demonstrates his well of creativity is far from dry, and that he’s always game to take chances with his music and try to cover new musical and lyrical ground....Radio Silence demonstrates that after over 20 years recording music, Kweli still has a lot of gas in his tank, and that he’s still willing to strive to create something truly unique. He continues to demonstrate that hip-hop artists can try something different well into their careers and still remain true to themselves.”
