The Unspoken Heard is the hip-hop collaborative of rapper Asheru and producer Blue Black. The group is often referred to as Asheru & Blue Black of the Unspoken Heard. They began getting significant recognition in underground hip-hop around the turn of the millennium. Their sound is reminiscent of the New York "new school" sound of the early '90s, particularly that of the Native Tongues Posse.
Asheru's profile and popularity has increased due to his intro and outro theme music for the animated series, The Boondocks, on Adult Swim.
Famous quotes containing the words unspoken and/or heard:
“The house came to be haunted by the unspoken phrase: There must be more money! There must be more money!”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“I, who had heard of music in the spheres,
But not of speech in stars, began to muse:
But turning to my God, whose ministers
The stars and all things are; If I refuse,
Dread Lord, said I, so oft my good;
Then I refuse not ev’n with blood
To wash away my stubborn thought:
For I will do or suffer what I ought.”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)
