New Album from Rap MC Talib Kweli 11-22 New Album from Rap MC Talib Kweli 11-22 Written by Robert ID2069 Wednesday, 02 November 2005 08:22 - One of hip-hop’s highly charged and talented rap MC’s Talib Kweli will release his new CD "Right About Now...," thru KOCH Records and Blacksmith Music on November 22nd. The album features fellow hip-hop and rap artists Jean Grae, Mos Def, Papoose and others also features 12 all new tracks. The first singles "Who Got It," produced by Kareem Riggs, and "Fly That Knot" are reacting simultaneously at urban radio right now. Kweli states, "''Right About Now'' sums up this project. Usually when my music comes out, the people hear where I was a year ago. This project represents where I am right now." Rap artist Talib Kweli is currently co-headlining The Breed Love Odyssey Tour (sponsored by PlayStation and House of Blues) with Mos Def. The national tour continues through the end of the year and also features Jean Grae, Pharoahe Monch and Medina Green. Kweli is a member of legendary groups Black Star (with Mos Def) and Reflection Eternal (with super producer Hi-Tek), as well as a successful solo artist, and has established himself as one of the most skilled artists in hip-hop today. Kweli ranks among the most respected MCs in the game -- even garnering reverence from multi-platinum artist Jay-Z in his song "Moment of Clarity" on the platinum release "The Black Album." With lyrics that range from the classic battle rap to emotionally charged, socially conscious commentary, Kweli is an intelligent wordsmith who has the knack for bridging the gaps between hip-hop fans of all types. With the respect of his colleagues and hip-hop fans around the world, this new release is sure to be a favorite. The track listing for "Right About Now...": 1.

ON MY GRIND: FREESTYLE RAP PRACTICES IN EXPERIMENTAL CREATIVE WRITING AND COMPOSITION PEDAGOGY Evan Nave 312 Pages My work is always necessarily two-headed. Double-voiced. Call-and-response at once. Paranoid self-talk as dichotomous monologue to move the crowd. Part of this has to do with the deep cuts and scratches in my mind. Recorded and remixed across DNA double helixes. Structurally split. Generationally divided. A style and family history built on breaking down. Evidence of how ill I am. And then there’s the matter of skin. The material concerns of cultural cross-fertilization. Itching to plant seeds where the grass is always greener. Color collaborations and appropriations. Writing white/out with black art ink. Distinctions dangerously hidden behind backbeats or shamelessly displayed front and center for familiar-feeling consumption.

    ANNEXE PEDAGOGIQUE A PARTIR DE LA FORMATION SUR LE HIP HOP Dossier Pédagogique Service Educatif de l’Archipel Naissance du Hip-Hop Le Hip-Hop ce n’est pas un genre, mais presque cinq ! Le Rap, le DJ’ing, le Breakdance, le Graffiti et Le beatbox qui est parfois ajouté comme cinquième élément. C’est néanmoins pour le Rap que le Hip-Hop est le plus connu. Ce genre musical est l’héritier de toute l’histoire musicale Américaine depuis la fin du XIX -ème siècle (le blues, le Gospel, la Soul, le Disco, le Jazz, La funk…). La culture Hip-Hop dans son ensemble est une culture à part entière qui a su créer ses codes, ses esthétiques, son mode de fonctionnement. Aujourd’hui le Hip-Hop est partout dans notre quotidien, dans la mode vestimentaire, les publicités, dans tous les médias. Si l’on devait résumer cette culture par une phrase, ce serait les sentiments partagés par la communauté : » Peace, Love, Unity and Having Fun » ! (Paix, amour, cohésion et plaisir). La Musique, est la forme la plus répandue du Hip-Hop. Le Rap s’inspire directement du Blues de par son essence. Il raconte la dure réalité des rappeurs et de ceux qu’ils côtoient, avec l’espoir de s’en sortir, de réussir, d’être libre. Le Rap s’inspire directement du Jazz, de par son rythme, avec les rimes notamment et l’improvisation que l’on peut retrouver lors de freestyle. Le Rap s’inspire directement du Rhythm and Blues de par sa popularité. De plus, d’abord pratiqué par des noirs, de nombreux blancs se sont mis à rapper, faisant tomber les barrières raciales.
