Quotes by Talib Kweli
But you have to be creative on how you sell yourself and market yourself. I think music sharing of any kind is great. I'm not looking to set a standard... but, I believe I have offered a challenge to others with my work. You have to know when to be arrogant. You have to when to be humble. You have to know when to be hard and you have to know when to be soft. Homosexuality in hip-hop is an extension of homosexuality in the black community. The black community is very, very conservative when it comes to homosexuality, and I don't mean conservative in the good way, like we're saving money. I mean very intolerant. I think its man's nature to go to war and fight. I will never do a record without some sense of responsibility. I don't feel comfortable making empty music. And you know, art as commerce, doesn't really make too much sense, they don't go together. Hip-hop isn't as complex as a woman is.
