Classic throwback track off a classic album... Mos and Premo absolutely killed this...
Stiffer stipulations attached to each sentence,
Budget cutbacks but increased police presence,
And even if you get out of prison still living,
Join the other five million under state supervision...
Mos Def aka Yasiin Bey bka Black Dante
Is a very underrated emcee. Man I miss when him and Talib Kweli was consistently putting out stuff together
Dude could easily have been a top 5-10 DOA, he has an original voice and cadence too .. Him and Talib were like a super duo, just think of the music they could have continued to drop!!!
Shit 2020 alone has given any writer hella content to cover.
Music artists, screen writers, comedians and honestly any creative should have hella shit to talk about from last year alone
But Seeds, Yasiin *is* in a lot of people's Top 5-10 DoADude could easily have been a top 5-10 DOA, he has an original voice and cadence too .. Him and Talib were like a super duo, just think of the music they could have continued to drop!!!
But Seeds, Yasiin *is* in a lot of people's Top 5-10 DoA
He certainly is mine
I bet yours too
I would put him outside of my top 5 just purely on lack of consistency but he would defo float in and out of my top 10 as that changes on a daily basis...
These are certified classics though and I loved his Lyricist Lounge freestyles and Rawkus features...

Well if Biggie can be top 5 off of 2 albums, that rule should apply to Mos Def.
Classic song on a classic album damn like y’all said so much content could be touched on. A new Black Star album touching on the past year would be amazing. And yeah I have Mighty Mos Def in my top 10. Probably around 6 or 7. Speaking of him was just listening to this this morning.
