“Edited after seeing a recent instagram post from TK!
Appreciate all the hard work gone into the podcast and most of the guest lineups have been good. Buuuuuuuuuuuut, So much consistent talk on racism and “white privilege” I’m Caucasian and felt really uncomfortable listening to Talib Kweli in the...”Read full review »

“Great host & fascinating guests. Insightful discussions of hip hop, comedy, activism, and, occasionally, politics. Talib Kwahli is an excellent interviewer who asks great questions. The overall tone is smart and positive, with plenty of humor sprinkled in.”

“The interview with Havoc from Mobb Deep made me need to leave a review. Talib guides the conversation like only someone can who has the deepest knowledge, respect, and love for their guests. As a listener you don’t even need to be familiar with the guests to be inspired. Highly recommended for...”Read full review »

“Yo! Talib! Thank you for digging deep into the culture and history with these foundational figures of hip hop.
Every podcast inspires me. Thanks to the individuals involved and the positive vibes.
This will end up in a library some day. It’s hip hop history, straight from the horses’ mouths.”

“I love the interviews, the content, the guest, the vibe, everything. I would have given this 5 stars but there’s just 1 thing I don’t love and it’s the cohost. She throws the vibe or the conversation off a lot to me. Seriously this podcast is definitely in the top 5 for me. The research and...”Read full review »

“Love the premise of the show, just wish they had a different host. If you scroll through you’ll see talib focuses on black men. Given his problematic history with women, it’s a bummer he takes no effort to promote or rectify that with this new platform given he’s been banned from other platforms...”Read full review »

“If you love black people and black culture then this is FOR YOU!! I love Talib’s music and have been a fan since I was a teen (I’m in my 30’s now) and he may be even better at interviewing and podcasting than perhaps mcing (with respect)”

“Talib and most of the guests are great but...
Every episode is ruined by the co-host
Every question she asks feels laboured and unnatural
Every time she tries to join in a riff between the guest and Talib it’s like a child amongst adults and hurts the flow of the interview”
