"The Proud", one of the most famous song from Talib Kweli. This is a response to the song of what he lives for and how he feels with the world today.

Brooklyn's Talib Kweli, a Hip Hop artist who is not afraid to tell in his songs what he feels and convey his message is one of the most respected rappers in the Culture of Hip Hop. I choose his song called "The Pride" from his latest album "Quality" and found it the best song lyrically I heard for a long time. The song, "The Proud," outweighs any spokesperson or presidents' words on civil rights issues …showed first 75 words of 888 total…

…showed last 75 words of 888 total…that's not in the Hip Hop industry simply for the money. Many of Talibs songs have different messages such as talks about life, drugs, education, respect etc. I consider "The proud" one of the best songs of all time. It's just too bad we will never see actual talents like Talib in TV winning Grammies and collecting the money and attention he deserves. "I'm glad I can still rely on hip-hop to hear the truth."
