This yr, I maintained listening to Talib Kweli’s voice on a memorable Xmas tune being made use of in Amazon Prime commercials. The tune is not adverse in any method, but it elevated a few considerations. Initially, is that really Talib? Second, is that this his brand-new occupation motion? And third, does this align along with his sturdy political concepts? Nicely, the rap artist resolved it– on the brand-new utility Blue Skies! As you can perceive, Talib is not energetic on Instagram or Twitter any longer. Honestly, he may have led the contour as a result of each methods are typically rubbish presently. Blue Skies resembles an additional liberal variation of Elon Musk’s latest job.
Anyhow, beneath’s what the Brooklyn rap grasp wanted to state:
” Each vacation people reward me on having my tune made use of in an Amazon commercial, except this era … attributable to the truth that people I am round help the strike.
Proper here is the vital issues tho … I’ve truly by no means ever had truly a observe made use of in an Amazon commercial. That is not me. That is merely an individual that looks like me. ♂”
Oh, and did you perceive Amazon workers are on strike? They often claimed, “We’ll strike when Santa requires us probably the most.” (Check out rather more on that exact beneath: Amazon Workers Strike).
Anyhow, Talib made it clear: ” I am with people.” I can’t exist– I sort of dream it was him on that exact tune, although.
In a fast dialog with Chuck “Jigsaw” Creekmur, Talib joked relating to precisely how the complication over this Xmas tune was leaving hand:
Jigsaw: “I used to be mosting prone to ask you relating to this, but I Shazam’ ed the tune and obtained the very fact.”
Talib: “Brother, issa epidemic lol.”
