Default Talib Kweli: “I’ve never seen anyone like Barack Obama”
Quote:
Kweli didn’t reference Obama on “Say Something” for nothing. In a recent chat with the Detroit Free Press, Talib explained that though his stance on voting hasn’t changed, he likes what he sees in Obama (and Hillary) so far.
Quote:
DFP: A lot of your lyrics have a political consciousness. However, you’ve been pretty forward about not voting in elections because the system is broke and you typically don’t believe in any candidates. Has Barack Obama changed your mind or is it politics as usual?

Kweli: Obama is very inspiring. Certainly I am considering whether or not I am going to vote for him, which is a big step for me. When I was younger, I might have voted for Bill Clinton in his first election, but haven’t since. There is still a long time to go before Obama even gets nominated; we just have to see what is going to happen. But I’d be lying if I said he wasn’t impressive. I still feel the same way I do about voting, but I have never seen anyone like Barack Obama before. I’m equally impressed with Hillary Clinton as a person, but she to me is definitely part of the system. She doesn’t inspire me the same way he does, you know?

I'm a HUGE Talib Kweli fan but isn't this a little counter intuitive : "A lot of your lyrics have a political consciousness. However, you’ve been pretty forward about not voting in elections because the system is broke and you typically don’t believe in any candidates."

I hope he votes and I hope everyone here in the US over 18 votes too. Lets go Obama!
