YesI voted yes because there was a time in the early 00s when Talib, Mos Def, Common and Black Thought were the epitome of "conscious rap". Anytime people discussed the dichotomy between gangsta rap vs conscious rap Talib's name was always in the conversation.

No (Fits too many words in his sentences)He got some songs I like but naw.

No (Fits too many words in his sentences)? . Can't vote Trick Daddy as a legend and Talib isn't.
lol I would say No Talib isn't. I don't think he has a individual classic album. I do believe Mos Def is a legend though. -
No (Fits too many words in his sentences)Hall of Very Good

YesHere's two songs I really liked by Talib

And here's the Get By Remix feat Jay, Mos Def, Kanye and Busta. This is one of the better posse jams I've ever heard.
