Talib
Kweli explains how his label situation influenced his decision to delay his
new album.
Talib Kweli was originally slated to release his new album Prisoner of Consciousness
on November 20th, but fans will have to wait a few more months for its release.
During an interview with Power 105 "s The Breakfast Club, the Brooklyn, New York
rapper explained that the dismantling of his label Blacksmith Records is to
blame for the delay.
"No, that "s atually going to be pushed back. It was originally supposed
to come out on Blacksmith/EMI/Capitol, it "s not longer coming out on EMI/Blacksmith/Capitol.
It was my label, we have now dismantled it," he said. "I have a label
called Javotti Media, which I put my last album Gutter Rainbows on, so it "s
now coming out on Javotti/EMI/Capitol. But in order to make the transition,
I pushed it back a couple of months. I "m looking at February."
