It looks like three is a charm for Talib Kweli as his third album Eardrum debuted last week at #2 on the Billboard Album Chart. The conscious rapper shocked most of the music industry when his new collection sold over 60K copies its first week of release. This is a huge feat considering that the other CDs in the top 3 were the tween centered soundtracks to High School Musical and Hannah Montana. Eardrum includes contributions from Norah Jones, Kanye West and Justin Timberlake while the current single, “Hot Thing,” features will.i.am on vocals. September will find Kweli releasing new episodes on his Blacksmith TV channel which you can find on You Tube.
