Talib Kweli & Hi-Tek’s Reflection Eternal Tour Dates

You can always tell the success of a group or artist by the size of Venue that there show will be at. Most artists are not supported very well in live shows by the real Hip Hop Fans. Talib Kweli can spit flames but I doubt any of these shows sells out because of the lack of support by real Hip Hop Fans. It is a sad state of affairs, I recently went to a Nas concert and the club venue was half full. If Nas cannot fill a arena then what do you think the lesser known artist can do. Seeing a artist perform live is much better than listening to there music on your ipod, get off the couch and spend some money and go see Hip Hop in a Live format.
