Talib Kweli: The Brickhouse, Phoenix, AZ 8/10/07
The Brickhouse in downtown Phoenix was more like an oven on a recent Friday night. Many people cleared the room before the headliner Talib Kweli even entered the stage, as the temperature rose well past 100 degrees. Yet Kweli, with his predictably smooth rhymes and easy backbeats, managed to pull off a compelling show despite the elements and those who stayed were lyrically impressed.
