Listen! Millions of Us Launches Warner Brothers Records artist Talib Kweli

Published on Thursday, October 19th, 2006 by Reuben

This is a really cool one. I’ve loved Talib Kweli since the early days when he used to rhyme with Mos Def — now we’ve launched a build fo his new album, “Listen”. It’s a huge brownstone in true Bedford Stuyvesant- style with turntables, video, pool table, bar, and on and on and on.
Talib Kweli's NYC Apartment Building

Great work on the build by Lordfly Digiridoo with the impeccable and inspired urban stylings of BushidoBrown Hightower.

The best part of this project came when we were struggling to get Talib Kweli’s avatar approved — Lucky Millionsofus had produced a great avatar but we couldn’t quite get the bagginess of the clothing sufficient to satisfy Kweli. His manager had seen BushidoBrown and said,, we want to look like that guy. Bushido’s response? “They can’t look like me!” The ultimate virtual world vs. real world celebrity smackdown.

Here’s a slurl to the build - enjoy! Also co-located on Spin Martin’s Saijo City.
