eh...here's the deal with me sometimes when it comes to kweli. to me, talib isn't under appreciated unless we're talking about in the mainstream. which maybe that's what you meant, and in that case i agree.

in the hip hop world though, i won't say underground just because that's sorta cliche but you guys know what i'm talkin about. common, talib, and mos def are way way far from being "under appreciated". of course this is all completely my own opinion from observation. you can ask tons of people though. they'll be like "yeah i like hip hop" and so you ask who they listen to it and it's always either common, talib, or mos def who they rattle off first. it's not like that's not who i'm going to be saying first or there is anything wrong with it, those three dudes should be some of the first three named. but you get what i'm getting at, if you're usually one of the first dudes name off then how under appreciated are you?

either way he is when it comes to main stream, i guess it just depends on how you look at it. but to me you could put tons of guys, black thought for example since brandon brought him up, and ask who is more under appreciated, and i'd probably always ago with the guy opposite of talib unless they just suck. talib's made a pretty good name for himself you ask me though.
