Talib Kweli: The Schnorrer Of Hip-Hop

Let’s just call a spade a spade. Talib Kweli is a schnorrer. That’s Yiddish for moocher. When the man isn’t pulling a Star Jones, and getting his wedding paid for by Hennesey, (the epitome of schnorrer and classless), he’s busy getting fitted for free Asics instead of fulfilling his scheduled press duties. Let me actually dress the latter down, making press wait two-hours in a sweltering hallway for no reason. To waste a reporter’s time because he found new crappy asics to be more important.

So, let’s recap: schnorrer of hip-hop is Talib Kweli, and that’s yiddish for loving free Henny and shoes more than having a soul.

No offense, but two minutes of schnoorering is enough for me.

But really it was more like two hours! Gotta love revisionist history.

You actually DO have to prove it. Day in and day out. If you run wild like Kanye did, you fall into the douchebag abyss. How does it feel? There is more to life than stocked Hennessy and fresh kicks.

And you know what, in Kweli’s little FROG-head, I think he feels validated. He did manage to fit in ONE interview, in that two-hour period. It was for a hip-hop site that hadn’t even launched yet. As the Maryland State Senator in ‘The Wire’, Clayton Davis says, SHIEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTT!

As the great Artie Lange has said, and whom is a greater man than Talib Kweli will ever be: WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I had to fly from Europe [in first class] WAHHHHH!

And is it even considered going in on someone that rocks pink watches? I mean I shouldn’t hate. It’s not like he sent in 5 FRUIT LOOPS UPC barcodes for that FREE watch.
