New Music: Yasiin Bey (Mos Def) – “N*ggas In Poorest”


Mos Def Yasiin Bey continues to manifest why he’s one of my favorite rappers. Skills? Check. Style all his own? Check. Not caught up into all the extra Hollywood stuff in the game? Check. Social commentary in his music? Check. Fearless? Check. Yasiin Bey goes in on Ye & Jay’s “N*ggas In Paris” record but flips it with with a message for cats caught up on their ‘thrones.’ The song is part of Yasiin’s Top 40 Underground freestyle project in which the mighty Yasiin will flip popular songs as only he could do best….

Mark Ronson assembles his crew of musicians including Erykah Badu & Mos Def Yasiin Bey for their contribution to the RE:GENERATION Project. RE:GENERATION is a documentary film that follows DJ Premier, Pretty Lights, The Crystal Method, Mark Ronson, and Skrillex as they remix, recreate and re-imagine five traditional styles of music. I’m diggin’ this joint right here, but who’s idea was it for this hook? Probably Erykah’s….Now that’s funky. hahaa!

Mos Def (Yasiin Bey) – Salaams (Video)


Mos Def made it clear that as we move into 2012 he will no longer answer to the name Mos Def as Islam has become a greater part of his life in recent years. As we move into these holidays check out the artist formerly known as Mos Def, Yasiin Bey, performing his latest piece “Salaams” at the 30 Years of Taqwa event in New York.

Black Star – “You Already Knew” (Prod. By Ohno)

Mos Def Yasiin Bey & Talib Kweli hit us with a double dose of “Black Star Power” on this Black Friday. This joint right here produced by Madlib’s little brother OhNo is not going to be on their next album, but will be on a tribute mixtape to Aretha Franklin. Of course we can assume the project will contain a gang of Detroit City Diva’s music that’s been sampled. If this is jawn right here is of any indication then we already know the complete tribute mixtape is gonna be fiyah! But ‘You Already Knew’…..
