Can't wait to put this on my iPod! Thank you Mos!
He sneek peek'd a bit of another cut from "The Ecstatic called "Pretty Dancer" back in February during his interview 92Y: the 92nd Street Y Podcast and it was undeniably crazy. Definitely Mos Def!

If you really need to get your fix for old-school mos def, get "We are hip hop" (i think that's what it is called.) It's about 4 cd's worth of old-school mos def on guest spots etc., pre black on both sides. Some of the rawkus stuff you've all heard but he did a LOT of collabos you wouldn't expect, and it's all "old" mos def. Personally I'm feelin his entire collection, Tru Magic included and can't wait for the new album. The man has hundreds of solid boombap verses out there, now he's doing new things.

feelin the horns.like how the piano fades it out. i like it. im just hard on my favorite mc's. i hold every offering from mos and kweli up to the standard of black on both sides and reflection eternal. i kept waiting for a black jack johnson project. this sounds like an intro song anyway. just something to set the tone of the album. so i wont read much into it other than i like the feel of it.

This is actually dope, Mos setting off over somethin very different. It works. That 70's era feel with Mos on the rhymes. Can get down with it..

mos def way more advanced now than he was on black on both sides/blackstar which was more of a typical classic hip-hop feel. he can't stay that way forever. mos definitely stepped up his game, so ahead of his shit, most people don't get it. looking forward to the new album.

Flora Purim did a great version of the song that is taken from in the early seventies on an album called Stories to Tell.
Listen to my new song and tell me what you think. I am looking for someone to lay down a rap on it. www.myspace.com/thashepard

Awww MAN this track is cold!!!!! Mos is a BEAST! If the whole album has this kinda feel/flow, it's gonna be bananas. I'm excited. Just glad that some emcees are actually workin' to keep hip-hop alive. Good stuff.

tru3 magic really wasn't up to much, let's face it. but if mos drops another New Danger i'll be very happy.very underrated album, hateddddd on simply for not being Black on Both Sides part 2
some people will still hate on mos cos they want him to drop 1999 rhymes. classic as that shit is, we're in 2009 and boom bap just isn't groundbreaking anymore

^^Mos Live in Cape Town^^^
joints called (Doctor) over john coltrane x Dave Axlerod
the shit is nice.. i am yearning for studio quality, and hope it is on the album..
If it is then it will probably be the climax..it just fits

He obviously is still going to cater to fans of his early days on this album. There's a Black Star track on it after all.

mos is just mos, stop trying to think he needs to sound a certain way and just appreciate the music. he still rips it, listen to what he's sayin.
