Talib Kweli just released this track in collaboration with poet Jessica Care Moore. “Fly Away” is produced by German producer Crada, featuring an incredibly catchy sample of Tracy Chapman’s “She’s Got Her Ticket”.  Kweli’s verses on this track are phenomenal, the guitar influenced production is nothing short of perfect for the track, and Jessica Care Moore’s poetry at the end leaves an eerie feeling that could only be diminished by repeating the song. “Fly Away” is definitely a must download. Look out for Talib Kweli’s next mixtape Attack The Block on September 12th.

“So I’m starting to get excited about this mix tape I did with the homie Z-Trip, Attack The Block. We will release it one week from today, but I want y’all to be as excited as I am so I am releasing another preview. There was a great response to To The Music last week, so I hope y’all enjoy this one as well..Shout out to Jessica Care Moore for the incredible poem at the end
And calling Attack The Block a mere mix tape is not doing it justice. These rappers these days put out anything and call it a mix tape. Not me. Z-Trip is a true master. This is a mix tape you can put on in any situation and let rock. Get ready for cutting, scratching, and thoughtfulness on a mix tape. Attack The Block. 9-12.”
