EMERGENCE

Talib Kweli discusses the Detroit Hip Hop artist community on Noisemakers with Peter Rosenberg.

"You've got an artist community that's so focused, and so tough – if you listen to somebody – whether its an Eminem, a Royce da 5'9", or an Invincible, from Detroit – the style, the way they rap is out of this world. But it's developed from knowing that there's a dude down the street that you have to rap better than. Before you get out of Detroit, you've got to be better than people in Detroit."
