[Gravitas Album Cover.JPG]Talib Kweli will release his acclaimed 6th solo album, Gravitas, available direct to fans on CD and blue vinyl today via his new web platform www.kweliclub.com<http://www.kweliclub.com>. This follows Kweli's much-buzzed-about move late last year to digitally release Gravitas by cutting out the middle man and bringing his music directly to his fans. Those who buy the album through www.kweliclub.com<http://www.kweliclub.com> will activate an exclusive membership in the club, which includes becoming part of Kweli's personal address book. The LP features slew of guest artists including Black Thought, recent Grammy-Award winner Gary Clark Jr., Raekwon, Res and Mike Posner. The album, his second in one year, was released just as Kweli was wrapping up one of the hottest tours of the year with Macklemore & Ryan Lewis. Those looking to purchase through traditional retailers can find the Gravitas CD & vinyl in stores or online though Javotti Media's partnership with Fat Beats. LISTEN: "State of Grace" ft.

"...smart, provocative, political and too rarely noted for his melody." - CNN.com



"The variety of sounds and collaborators Kweli works with demonstrate a desire to live on the charts and in the dorm room, and his flexibility negates the idea that pop isn't conscious and conscious isn't any fun." - NPR All Things Considered
