Audio: Mos Def “The Tournament” [Unreleased]

>

The homie Andrew somehow got his hands on this unreleased banger from Mos Def. The song is called "Tournament," and I remember it being in talks of appearing on his last LP, The Ecstatic, but it didn't make the cut. I'm just speculating, but it could have been due to sample clearing issues, because the quality surely isn't the issue here – would have been a dope outro.

    I definitely remember hearing RZA over this sample recently, can’t remember which song though.

    Shamz: That would be Black Mozart off of OB4CLII.

    you heard RZA on this because it was on OB4CL II, it’s a nice track and could of fit the ecstatic. wonder why he left it off

    the beat is from Raekwon’s Only Built 4 Cuban Linx PT II
    the song is Black Mozart Ft Rza Inspectah Deck both extremely
    bagging songs

    Mos is my G.O.A.T. CANT DO NO WRONG

    So dope. Go Mos!

    I prefer this over Black Mozart. Major fan of Cuban Links 2 for sure but Rza really ruined the song with that singing. Mos seems to be very hungry at this moment…

    Mos must have known by the time he was recording the tracks for Blakroc that this wouldn’t be cleared – that ‘Total Control’ bridge was used for ‘On the Vista’.

    Good shit right here! Props to MOS….

    dope. Ecstatic could have used this track, it would have filled out the old-school verse quota nicely.

    This background music was used for a Sadat X song from a few years ago about New York. Before the Raekwon one y’all keep talking about.

  16. avatar Duck Duck

    nice track. definitely should have been on the album. wonder why it wasn’t?

  17. avatar Mike Shousky

    RZA added flavor to iy that only Rza can on OB4CL mos killed to

  18. avatar PeeAye

  19. avatar DJ CROSSFADER
