Video: Idle Warship [Talib Kweli x Res] - "Beautifully Bad"

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Idle Warship is Talib Kweli and Res. And "Beautifully Bad" is Kweli going all big beats and heartbreak and Res playing the Lady in Red on this (sometimes uncomfortably honest) break-up ballad for the post-hiphop generation. The video--which hit the IW tumblr at about 9am this morning--is black and red and, as the title suggests, beautiful all over. Watch below and if you are in the Miami area tomorrow October 19th, catch the Warship (with a full live orchestra!) at the Arsht Center (tickets & more info here). And of course you can purchase their debut LP Habits of The Heart on iTunes now.
