How the fappo could I forget to name the best song released in 2005?
Ms. Hill by Talib Kweli. It's on his most recent mixtape, Right About Now. It's a platonic love song urging Lauren Hill to get back on the mic.
It's beautiful and heartfelt, two things I almost never hear in any recent music, much less in a hip-hop track.
I'd provide a link to download it but I can't find one. I'd post some lyrics but the delivery is a huge part of it. If you can locate me in space/time, I can play it for you.
