Ski Beatz feat. Jean Grae, Jay Electronica, Joell Ortiz, & Mos Def – “Prowler 2″

After no activity on the site for a few days, we back (I think). And since it’s seems like a lot of people have been waiting on this track, let’s come back on this one. Off Ski’s 24 Hour Karate School (Which drops March 30th).
Update: Instead of making another post, I just added the new [...]

Gorillaz feat. Mos Def & Bobby Womack – “Stylo”

Yea. I’m a Gorillaz fan. I actually purchased Gorillaz & Demon Days. But this shit right here? I don’t know; I may need more time with it. Plus to say it features Mos Def is kinda a stretch (The Bobby Womack feature is also awkward). To be honest, I like the artwork of Gorillaz and [...]

Reflection Eternal feat. Jay Electronica, J. Cole, & Mos Def – “Just Begun”

Ever since Just Blaze previewed this on Tony Touch’s Toca Tuesdays, I think we all have been waiting on this one. Hi-Tek, Jey Elec, Mos, Talib, & J. Cole on one track? Yep. Reflection Eternal’s album, Revolutions Per Minute, drops in February.
Sidenote: And because I don’t want to post too much today, I also threw [...]

BET Hip Hop Awards 2009: The Cyphers

By now, we all should know that the best part of the BET Hip Hop Awards is the cyphers. Last year’s crop of rappers involved were good but this year they got such talent as KRS-One, Mos Def, Joe Budden, Nicki Minaj, Wale, and Eminem

Black Star|Mos Def & Talib Kweli Are Black Star [1998]

In looking at the past Classic Material entries I was very surprised to see that this album wasn’t included in the listing. An album that did more for Hip-Hop’s reconstruction on the eve of the deaths of

Song of the Week: Black Star feat. Common – “Respiration”

I was really drawing a blank today when it came time for me to pick Song of the Week. I don’t know if you guys know how hard it is to pick ONE song out of thousands, but thanks to a good friend, I was reminded of this gem from Talib Kweli, Mos Def, and [...]

The Numbers Game: Black Eyed Peas, Mos Def, Pleasure P, D-Block, DJ Quik & Kurupt Debut

You see how long the title to this post is? Yes. Much to my joy, we have five debuts this week (No disrespect to Eminem, but after two weeks, I’d like to change it up at bit)

Mos Def|The Ecstatic

I know that the review of Mos Def’s The Ecstatic album has been one that people have been looking for since Tuesday when it was released and I am happy to deliver it in its entirety. I apologize for three day delay in delivering this review but that’s what happens

The Best 30 Rappers Over 30

A few Tuesday’s ago (May, 19th to be exact) we saw album releases from Busta Rhymes, Method Man/Redman, & of course, Eminem. This was so far the biggest release date of 2009. All three acts that I mentioned are veterans in the game and well respected by their peers. Another thing they have in common: [...]

Vibe’s Best Rapper Alive Tournament

I was on the internet and I saw a thing Vibe was doing to settle once and for all who is the best rapper alive. They made a bracket type thing to have the readers vote on who is the best; it’s like the March Madness brackets. They’ve got the four brackets based on some [...]
