Lyrics: 4.0
Beats: 4.0


I somehow didn't expect Talib to come back with some great shit after the dissapointing Beautiful Struggle. "Right About Now" & "Liberation" where signs he was back in the good direction but still I didn't expect much out of Eardrum. I was pleasently surprised straight from the first listen, this shit is really good. He hooked up with an incredible crew of producers (Madlib, Kanye, Pete Rock, will.i.am, Just Blaze, Hi-Tek) and they deliver the goods for Kweli to spit his raw heat. Kweli is focused on this, he does what he's supposed to do. He speaks on a whole variety of topics, this is political and human at the same time. He got he rid of his habit to abuse the word "like" which will please haters (altho it never really bothered me). You can feel the growth as an artist and this might be the album that will put him with the legends. There are no wack songs, this is an album that's playable front to back and I'm really proud of Talib Kweli for doing so. Eardrum defines what 2007 hip hop is... but where's the Dilla track?
