'No Fear of Time,' Black Star's first album in 24 years, is a seamlessly flowing collection of insurrectionary rhymes and propulsive beats by one of rap’s most heralded duos.
Arriving a year before Chris Rock joked on the MTV Video Music Awards about Puff Daddy’s saturation of the market, Black Star’s music felt reactionary. But Black star were the right group with the right, inspirational messages—about the boundless rewards found in gaining self-knowledge, escapism from the red-lined confines of the inner-city, Black women empowerment. And they came at just the right moment.
Kweli is even more to the point on the people-power salvo “So Be It,” where he insists, “My songs is knowledge to heroes that need honoring/A promise we demolishing all Confederate monuments.” Where Bey is breezy and abstract, Talib is urgent and laser-focused. At least two corrupt presidential administrations after they got their start, they still make toppling systems sound starkly amenable—like the aural equal to a classic Kara Walker silhouette.
