    1. POC? That’s a horrible album title, seeing as how it will most likely be forgotten about and labeled as a “Piece of Crap” once it is released.

      1. You must have not read the title of this article. It said “Prisoner of Consciousness” within the context of the title. Talib Kweli labeled his album as “POC” because he was tweeting. Are you just that ignorant of a person?

      1. Forreal, just about every feature BUT nelly is dope. Glad talib is working w/ kendrick lamar and especially mos def

      1. Jean Grae is trash– her parents were great musicians but she’s been making excuses for being overlooked for how long now? It’s always someone else’s fault though, right Jean?

    2. Well, at least he got the abbreviation for his album right. POC=Piece of Crap. Like all his releases since he started rapping. No one cares about this lame ass underground conscious rappers that only niggaz who live in their moms basements and can’t talk to girls let alone get pussy listen to these cunts. Nelly? LOL that’s the originator of Homo Rap that passed on from LL Cool J to Eminem/50 Cent/Kanye era to pretty much all these new rappers (Lupe, Drake, BoB, Cudi, Big Sean and Wiz homos among more). Listen to real niggaz like Gucci Mane, Justin Bieber and Christian Beadles. Real Hip-Hop lives there.

      It’s Gucci Time!

      1. @superguccirap (listen 2 real niggaz like gucci mane, justin beiber and christian beadles real hiphop lives there) LMAO U HAVE NO FUCKING CLUE
        superguccirap should be burnt alive! ahahahahahahahaaa!

      2. Talib is good for a hot eight bars once a year; he never should have had a solo career, as his lousy discography proves. Keep pretending though, right.

    3. why all the nelly hate? cole had a nice spot on that RE joint.

      Can’t wait to see yall eat your words too…

    4. i love kwli but come on dude. why does being a consious rapper hurt ur feelings so much? that’s like shaq shooting threes. stick to what ru good at

      1. Boom…truth right there….plus, talib hasn’t had any of the old magic on tracks for well over 5 years…i think the muthafucka probably thinks too much at this point.

    5. Ayo Talib, get some Kariem Riggins production on that shit and it’ll be fire. The features are dopeasfuck!

    6. Prisoner of dogshit flow is more like it! And with guests Jean Grae (unlistenable, always complaining) and Maino (straight retarded)?

      Medgar Evers died for THIS?!?!

    7. Don’t mean to complain, but why he doesn’t use his connections with G.O.O.D. Music? I mean Gutter Rainbows did what, 20k? Revolutions Per Minute did that number on the first week, in overall its around 30k. (And if you ask me, still the most overlooked album in 2010). I know his independent now and he financially he is on his own, but damn, he could be way succesfull than that. He knows Mr. West well (and based on his GOOD Friday series, they’re still in touch), Mos Def, his long time friend is under that umbrella too, how much does it take to get a feature form Kid Cudi, John Legend or Common? (I know Common left GOOD, but y’all know…)

      1. gutter rainbows had a much better sound then RPM its not about money but being true to the artist. He should do a track with lil tupac kasinova tha don.

    8. sad that pop shit like Eminem gets all the love in Sales and by you dumbasses, But Talib is far more Hip Hop than Faginem will ever be
