The rise of Twitter has many emcees choosing to leak information on their own as of late. That happens to be the case with Talib Kweli, who took to his Twitter page to announce the release of Reflection Eternal's forthcoming album, Revolutions Per Minute.

Noting as the album's "official release date," Kweli said it will hit store shelves and online stores on April 6. "Spread the word," he added.

The album has been highly anticipated for years. Anticipation grew when the two released "Back Again " last year.
