Talib Kweli Tickets

Talib Kweli is an MC from Brooklyn, NY who surfaced after the mainstream success of Black Star tour dates, a collaboration with fellow MC Mos Def and producer DJ Hi-Tek. Following the release of Black Star, Kweli and Hi-Tek returned under the name Reflection Eternal with a neo-soul album called Train of Thought.

Kweli and Hi-Tek split after that release and Kweli enlisted the help of producers Kanye West and Quik to achieve a more mainstream sound on his first solo album, Quality. The album, released in 2002, also includes two comedy bits by Dave Chappelle. The Kanye West-produced single Get By reached the Billboard Top 100. In 2004, Kweli guested on Kanye’s wildly successful debut album The College Dropout on the track Get ‘Em High.

In the summer of 2004, Kweli opened for the Beastie Boys on their "Challah At Your Boy World Tour” and performed solo and with Black Star at Dave Chappelle’s Block Party, during which time Talib Kweli tickets were selling like hotcakes. In 2006, Kweli secured a distribution deal with Warner Bros., was featured in an NCAA commercial rapping about the Big Ten and released a collaboration with Mad Lib called Liberation. Kweli’s third album, called Eardrum, features production by Kanye West, Just Blaze, will.i.am, Nick Speed and Pete Rock. Talib Kweli concert tickets are available through TicketLiquidator.
