The Last Poets

Think warriors reporting from the battlefield

"Understand What Black Is" by The Last Poets is an album that matters - not just musically, but as a record of the times we're living in. The Last Poets are weathervanes, warning of the future and past sins in poems that are indivisible from the rhythms they are voiced on. Their work is a test of our own courage - because are you ready to receive what they're saying?
