Nikka really said Ecstatic was a wack album.
Not only is that album great, but Mos bodies Kweli on it yet again

Talib used to be overrated, but he's probably underrated at this point. Rap fans have been shytting on dude relentlessly for the last decade.
OP ain't saying nothing controversial.
TOT > BOBS
That's why I think "flow" is such an underrated art in hiphop
Let's be real Talib raps off beat and has ruined so many great beats with his rambling
There will be a smooth ass beat from Dilla, Ye, 9th etc and this nikka will start rambling off beat for 6 minutes
nikka was spittin off beat jibberish fukkin up another great beat
he does go off beat sometimes but not silk the shocker off beat
you ain't NEVER lied there.same can be said for E-40..
True, but for every one of these songs, he's got no less than 5 of these:
and look at where every single one of these dudes ended up
That whole song is trash
It's not underrated. It is THE most important thing a rapper brings to the table.
I meant from standpoint of how most people think it's easy that anyone one can just pick up a mic and rap
Traditionally it's not by most and even from the people it's been born from to be considered a respected art form.
But it takes skill to be able to flow
You have to have an ear for it
Like eye and hand coordination to listen and speak accordingly to the beat takes skill
It's what biggie excelled in
I hate to agree with this...but that Talib/Madlib Liberation album ws beyond forgettable.I whole heartedly agree
I always hated talib. Dude overrated as fukk
Name one rapper who had open access to madlibs catalog n made a dud.
Doom. Classic
Gibbs. Classic
Quas got a better album
Percee p git a better madlib album lol
Mos def gave him life. Hi tek gsve him a career.
Plus hes corny in real life
Seems all Talib Kweli can do now is argue with racists on twitter. It's pathetic. His music has suffered, but he excelled beyond Mos' output over the years.
