About Talib Kweli

Talib Kweli Greene is an American rapper, known for his work as one half of the hip-hop duo Black Star. He formed the group in 1997 with fellow Brooklyn rapper Yasiin Bey. Black Star’s 1998 single “Definition” reached the Billboard Hot 100 and led to the duo’s self-titled debut album later that year, which entered the Billboard 200.
