Earlier this week, Talib Kweli & 9th Wonder swung by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to perform a new Indie 500 tune called "Every Ghetto." Now, the duo — who have also tapped Pharoahe Monch — have unleashed the studio version.

The song sports a bouncy beat with soulful, choral backing vocals that resemble a more uplifting take on Kanye West's "Power." It also features rapid-fire rhymes about how Kweli connects with impoverished inner city communities, making this a juxtaposition of upbeat sounds and gritty subject matter.

Hear the song below. It comes from the collaborative album Indie 500, due out on November 6.
