Talib Kweli says that the new Black Star album, produced by Madlib, has been finished for over a year, but hasn’t been released due to interlopers, culture vultures and greedy people stopping them.
“I’m tired of being silent about this,” Talib says. “I tried my best y’all. Flew around the globe. Paid for this out of pocket. All for the culture. I’m a fan of Black Star too. I want to see this come out as bad as y’all do, or more. But people who never made a beat, never wrote a rhyme in they life got they fingers in the pie and are being disrespectful to what me and my brothers built.
“It’s in Gods hands now,” he continues. “I’m on to other things, life is too short to be disrespected by culture vultures. Maybe y’all will get to hear this album after I’m gone.”
