havn't heard this, but if it's also got Kweli on it, even if Mos Def sucks you know it's half decent.

MaShPG · 10-04-2005, 03:04 PM

Yea, if you haven't heard this you've been sleeping. No matter your views on Mos/Kweli you must respect this album It's in my top 5. Heres a dope track offa it called Respiration featuring Common.

^^That's like one of the top 5 greatest tracks ever IMO, just straight fuckin' poetry, it has my favorite chorus of all-time.

man, dope album get it for sure. can't believe that you don't like mos, have you copped black on both sides, cause that album is classic shit. w/e his recent shit aint good.

bringoutthegimp · 10-05-2005, 07:11 AM

yeah black on both sides is why is hate mos def, its so over rated, im listening to this black star album just now though and damn, it is really fuckin good

bringoutthegimp · 10-05-2005, 07:24 AM

on further listening, mos def needs to quit this singing bullshit, i had to fast forward a bunch of songs, he does spit some hot shit here and there though whereas kweli is definately why this album is great and the beats are smooth as fuck too. ill give it an 8/10, if mos def didnt sing itd get a 9

dat MF · 10-08-2005, 04:01 AM

9/10 they made an incredible album

Respiration, Definition...classics

J-DON · 10-10-2005, 03:03 PM

8... overrated album. A better variety in the type of beats used would have made a dramatic difference.
