Liberation is a collaboration between Talib Kweli (rapper) and Madlib (producer). It was made available for free download from Stones Throw's website, and Kweli & Madlib's MySpace pages for the first week of 2007, beginning New Year's Eve 2006. It was removed about a week later. One cover for the album is an adaptation of a piece by guerrilla artist Banksy, and an alternate cover (given away as a print-ready download) is a collage of Talib Kweli, a dollar sign, and the Statue of Liberty [1]. The album is now available on CD.
