New audio leak from Talib Kweli’s upcoming mixtape ‘Attack The Block’. Talib said about the mixtape “So I’m starting to get excited about this mixtape 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 mixtape is not doing it justice. These rappers these days put out anything and call it a mixtape. Not me. Z-Trip is a true master. This is a mixtape you can put on in any situation and let rock. Get ready for cutting, scratching, and thoughtfulness on a mixtape. Attack The Block. 9-12.”
