PKI Jizzman Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 Hey TPR! I go to Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio and our Spring Concert this year was put on by rappers J.Cole, Talib Kweli, and Hi-Tek. I hadn't been to a rap show before, so I didn't know what to expect. The stage was put up outside on the "Greenspace" in the middle of campus, nice weather outside! Just a bit cloudy. J.Cole was GREAT. Not only good hip hop, he really entertained the crowd. What I thought was the coolest, was how he let us inside his head. He talked about how it was his first time 'being alone on tour', and always encouraging everyone to put their hands up, jump, etc. Talib Kweli and Hi-Tek were a great duo as well. It was a lot of fun (and neat to see!) how rappers/dj's interact with each other throughout the performance. Talib did a lot of freestyling, and I have to say I've got a lot more respect for hip hop after this show. Hi-Tek is from Cincy, so he had a lot of energy for being in his home town. He invited a few friends up on stage to rap with him. They pretty much just used an Apple laptop and a little table to go off, nothing big it very pretty authentic hip hop. I haven't heard much about them before this, so I didn't know much more than "Just To Get By" going into it. Enjoy the pics! -Zach Narcolepsy....IS AMONG US! In the nasty 'nati! Mix up the mix J.Cole and his DJ Crowd Interaction = A+ Rock on You can tell these guys have tons of fun Talib Kweli and Hi-Tek take the stage Hi-Tek in his home town! Great new-age sound and next song can take you back to the 90's Led Zep! Talib Kweli! I thought he kind of looked like Mos Def Peace! For one of his good friends that died this week. New album coming out May! @HiTekZilla The kids were entertaining lol Yes! Nice tats coming together at the end Two awesome names in hip hop: Talib Kweli and Hi-Tek! Thanks for reading!
Josh Linn Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 Talib is one of the most underrated rappers out...Quality and Beautiful Struggle are two of my favorite rap albums.
