There's something magical about pairing Talib with Hi-Tek on production that transcends his already almost unlimited lyrical potential and creates an extraordinary experience.
-
Revolutions Per Minute is an album that's been a long time coming, and Kweli and Hi-Tek prove once again that there's more to rap than club bangers, delivering another dose of socially and politically conscious music that's more about opening people's eyes to what's happening in the world than telling them how to feel about it.

58The updated duo offers lollipop anthems that do not fit airy reverberations and methodical nuance of '90s era Hi Tek. Luckily, the suporting cast offers diversity to the sometimes misguided and underwhelming album. [Spring/Summer 2010, p.110]
