MosDef shows the way

Each hip hop fan should MosDef now be known. His Blackstar album last year was made in collaboration with his colleagues Rawkus Talib Kweli and was one of the most innovative and creative hip hop LPs 1998. And its now in hip hop circles long-awaited solo album "Black On Both Sides". One hears that MosDef experimented with stylistic devices and, in contrast to Puff Daddy and Co. says pretty serious with this music, which is true, and to their credit. The very first track "Do not Fear The Man" can capture the hearts of HipHop fans higher. Cool staccato beat samples and a very interesting Rhymestyle be equal to know at the beginning that this LP is not a top ten samplers. Furthermore, one can say: MosDef leaves from funk, jazz and soul music from nothing and is thematically very limited to the black consciousness which already expresses the LP title. All in all, very successful, you should not pass it but take a CD / LP. Also recommended are MosDef's features with A Tribe Called Quest, of course, Blackstar and Scritti Politti's "Tinseltown To Boogie Down".
