[ObeastPlaya]

"You never know when your fate goin' switch hand, get today's solid ground out of yesterday's quicksand." DAMN!

[Crucifixiation]

[llPurpleHazell]

What did Mos Def change his name too? Some Kunta Kinta shit

[DanielSan86]

"You make a mockery of what I represent properly"

Best line in a rap song I've ever heard and so ahead of it's time with the state of popular rap,

[jhink357]

i literally bumped this CD every day in 8th grade on my way to the bus stop for school and on my way home. and was in heavy rotation for the next 4 yrs. it feels so good to hear this every now and again! REAL HIP HOP WILL live on.

[dojahman]

[dojahman]

@jhink357 i can relate to that. good vibes

[novembrrain]

[kearninator12]

@jhink357 Real Hip Hop is alive as long as as people like Mos Def, Rza, and MF Doom are around

[Crazytaru1]

this is the track that introduced me to talib kweli back in 1999

[novembrrain]

@Crazytaru1 im glad you found him.

[BGSUDeBerry]

I am a huge wayne fan.. but i must admit. it is nice to get away from that music and be refreshened by the truth. he spits everything that is real.

[qwauntum]

I wish we could turn on the radio and listen to this not eminem's bitch ass

[whiteCostaRican]

@qwauntum yeah its sad what Em has become. He used to be raw.

[TrueSoldierJay]

@qwauntum it's better if u don't hear it every day all day, so it stays fresh

[2000hiphophead]

This is real music. I'm digging Mos. He is nasty for sure. Top 10 greatest ever. Check out more hip hop dopeness at cleverelementsdotnet for a rapper named Munchini who is cut from the same cloth if you love real music. Support the underground.

[Ginga]

Monster track. Mos destroys the beat and I salute Ayatollah for laying it down.

[jermain703]

You never know when your fate is gonna switch hands, get todays solid ground out of yesterdays quicksand.. Mos Def and Talib Kweli are the truth kids. Music like this will never be made again by any of them wack cats out nowadays who write corny ass lyrics and use hooks based off of old nursery school rhymes..
