The release of the album was a surprise, according to Rolling Stone, as was a compilation he put out last month. Join Kweliclub. Editors' Recommendations. If skills sold, Talib Kweli would have been one of the most commercially successful rappers of his time.
As it was, however, the earnest MC became one of the most critically successful rappers of his time, which dawned in the late '90s when he rapped alongside Mos Def and DJ Hi-Tek as part of the group Black Star. This trio of up-and-comers and their widely acclaimed self-titled album debut, Black Star, helped make Rawkus Records one of the premier underground rap outposts of the late '90s.
Kweli and Hi-Tek then collaborated as a duo on Reflection Eternal , which firmly established them apart from Mos Def, who had gone solo. For a moment there, Kweli and his Rawkus associates seemed like a full-fledged movement -- a return to the sort of hip-hop associated with the so-called golden age.
However, the Rawkus dispersed, leaving Kweli on his own to carry the torch. He continued his output, beginning with a proper solo debut, Quality , and though he didn't rack up towering sales numbers, he remained a critical favorite.
It wasn't until years later in high school that he turned to hip-hop as an outlet for his self-expression.
