"We won't get it poppin' till we oil free."
New joint by Reflection Eternal (Talib Kweli + DJ Hi Tek), featuring some pretty powerful visuals directed by Sam Ellison.
This candidly critical indictment of the oil industry could not have come at a more appropriate time in the wake of BP's disaster in the Gulf Coast that, 80 days later, has yet to be completely resolved.
Dope video from Reflection Eternal. They managed to do a good job of taking on the nasty topic of oil without coming off too preachy, and that ain't easy to do. Revolutions Per Minute is in stores now.
New album Revolutions Per Minute drops April 6th! Can't wait for that.
Heres another full free album being called a mixtape for you to download. I think 2009 was the year of the free album if you ask me, and I hop it continues, because damn... who doesn't like free music? Presented by Statik Selektah, this street album features a few exclusive cuts off of Kweli and Hi-Tek's upcoming commercial release Revolutions Per Minute due out February 2010.  Tracklist, artwork and most importantly the download link are all after the jump!

Supernat is incredible. Why do I gotta be in Detroit the only city that's not on their tour schedule I would love to go to the Toronto or Chicago show if someone from Guerilla Union wants to hit us up. Anyone else going?
All propers due to MissInfo.
This single isn't circulating but it should be. I was doing some work and this track busted me outta my funk today, maybe it'll do the same for all of you. Off of Hi-Teknology 3 which dropped earlier this year. What up Cleveland.
