Audio: Talib Kweli x Maino "To The Music" [prod. 9th Wonder]

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.Talib Kweli - "Attack The Block" cover art

Talib Kweli blesses us with the next shot from his Attack The Block mixtape, featuring Maino--an unexpected collabo from a cat pretty much known for the unexpected at this point. The soulful feel of the 9th Wonder track takes me right back to that moment when Rawkus records was making moves and a small cadre of rap commandos were attempting to storm mainstream radio stations with their underground sound. Call it mainground music (or maybe understream?). Whatever you call it, call it end-of-summer, outer borough BBQ gold. Stream below and look for Attack The Block to drop on a 'soon-come' basis.
