He transcended the game with this one

Love that record.

yes, indeed the tracks I heard like Umi Says made me take notice.

Very cool...

I only know "Umi Says"

what does the rest of the album sound like ?

fuck me man

a thread like this gets 4 replies

man.....

For me it was all about Ms Fat Booty.... that Aretha samp!!

Ah the memories, love this LP! Remember when Rawkus could do little worng?!

Shame Mos appears unable/interested into putting such a concerted effort into another record.

That's definitely up there with my favorites.

I have to admit that I like the Black Star album even more than this one.

For sure. I like Blackstar better than any solo album from Mos Def or Talib Kweli and I think that is saying something.

I love the lyrics in "Do It Now"!

I LOVE this one! Honestly, I'm not a huge rap/hip-hop fan (well atleast when it comes to the mainstream stuff), but this is such a good album. Mos Def is prob of my favorite rappers
