Brother Ali: Truth is Here

When Rites of Passage came out in 2000, the underground hip-hop world buzzed about a lyricist called Brother Ali. Rhymesayers had picked up another gem, and every album to follow packed killer rhymes, illustrating Ali’s knack for storytelling. His last LP dropped in 2007, and now at long last we get some new heat on Truth is Here, an EP featuring six brand new tracks and three old hard to find b-sides. The album is bundled with a DVD of a full live show in Minneapolis and a bunch of videos. Check out some of the tracks at his MySpace page.
