Reunited and it FEEL SO GOOD

Mos Def Feat. Talib Kweli-History (Creative Control Color Edit) from Creative Control on Vimeo.



It's been a minute since we've heard Blackstar, Mos Def and Talib Kweli rock the scene together but when we do it's, well, music to our ears. Since their debut album they have put out multiple solo projects, all which have been very great efforts to carry the torch in these dark ages. Yet, to me, they shine they brightest when together, maybe that's why they call em Blackstar. Together they seem to balance one another like those yoga people that hold each other while the other is floating in air. Well thank you for the snack but I think we could use a full course meal.

New Music Review

This dude Curren$y has got my attention. Not to flashy, very A.M., P.M., meaning its good to wake up to, as well as something you can bump to get the night started. His vocals lay on top of the beat like bed sheets. Lyrical content is laced with clever metaphors, dribbled with inner city truths, that type of music you crumble something up too. Can't say too much else except check out his music, his resume seems to be growing each time I check for new joint from this cat.
