WHO: Talib Kweli is a Brooklyn born, American emcee. Kweli first gained recognition through Black Star for his collaboration with fellow emcee Mos Def.

Kweli is a profound lyricist and perennial favorite among music critics worldwide. In fact, he is one of the most respected rappers of our time. As Jay-Z once put it in his famous Black Album rhyme "If skills sold, truth be told, I'd probably be, lyrically, Talib Kweli."

Ozomatli is a Los Angeles-based, culture mashing, 10 piece band that has been together for more than 14 years. They are hometown favorites and U.S. State Department Cultural Ambassadors. It’s often said that if you rolled down your car window in East LA and collected pieces of music you heard blasting from passing cars, you could mix all that up and get the Ozomatli sound. It’s a collision of urban Latino, hip-hop and rock, with influences from salsa, dancehall and cumbia, funk, meringue, New Orleans second line, Jamaican raga and Indian raga. If you couldn’t possibly absorb all of that, here’s what you really need to know: Listening to Ozomatli is like taking a trip around the world.
