WNYC’s “Soundcheck” presents SOUNDCHECK LIVE: TALIB KWELI

LIVE Webcast from New York City

On Wednesday, April 24, WNYC’s Soundcheck presents an intimate conversation and performance with Brooklyn-based rapper Talib Kweli, who will release his fifth album, Prisoner of Conscious, this May.

Soundcheck host John Schaefer will join Talib Kweli at The Jerome L. Green Performance Space for a conversation about the territory between the personal and the political --and about his myriad projects. Both as a solo artist hip-hop duo Black Star (with Yasiin Bey, formerly known as Mos Def), Kweli has become known for his broad-ranging lyrics and rapid-fire delivery throughout his 20-year career. His latest album includes guest appearances from artists like Kendrick Lamar, Miguel, Melanie Fiona and Busta Rhymes.
