[NJSTaT3OfMiND]

[joecandito]

at 0:13 it appears that he is stuck and cant rhyme with "cheap" but hes actually making the lyrics for his album in that brief pause

[arbi90]

Fo real Mos is ill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[6663000]

@joecandito

Actually, I think he just ad-libbed the Chris Wallace line before going back to his writtens.

[superrocket1000]

thats so crazy, he spits fast and slow.

[DainMiller]

Land mines be disguised as welcome signs,

on May 18, 2009 another rapper was shot and killed in LA.

his name was DOLLA.

whats even more ironic is this part that Mos Def stressed (0:11-0:18)

"billion DOLLA flow and black life is still cheap"

[kittydidivah]

[chickennig]

Obviously the poster you fucking moron.

[rbrgiraff]

speakin the truth. mos def in frost amphitheater. but be honest -- that's not freestyle. that's good written poetry. but if you say "freesytle" then you don't know what you're talking about.

[hjlphilp]

Dam,thats real

this is his best

[ijunor]

he is struggling wi some o that freestyle.

but im black on both sides

this shits wack and thats a fact

[bluescholars]

10$ says you cant free

[ijunor]

will you pay up?

i play all day with the grey dub

im like hey son grab me a sub on the way back

im not beefing but the verse was way wack

ya gotta stay correct

[datperson12]

[crackwhorejarvie]

The internet is no place to freestyle but still... I think ijunor just got owned.

[Stylin26]

[pafenwick]

He killed it so butter that the rain started fallin. DAMN.

[metalicusmaximus]

maybe not the best freestyle ever, but real talk. Only the Chef, God Shallah, could tell a better story lyrically

[KushRushKushRush]

hot

[orsadam]

Gangstalicious!!!

[CrmPly4]

I got lots of respect for Mos Def. Freestyle or not, he told everyone where the lyrics were from. Any freestyle now thats on the radio or TV is written and not admitted.

[elitkat]

dope

[ministon2]

its fake bonanza

[worldsfinestman]

Mos def is lyk the realest kat man..ya digg? Say he aint doe?

[Triccogekuhan]

This video was taken with the world's oldest digital video camera. Forgive the lag. And YES it was Mos Def.

[Triccogekuhan]

What's up with all the unnecessary hostility? Everyone knows "Fake Bonanza" was a track. Why not use your mind and understand that in the format that he's delivering it, it is very much so considered af freestyle.

The point of the post wasn't to argue about the difference between a track and a freestyle, the point was to listen to some bomb ass lyrics from a living legend.

If you can't get with that, you don't belong anywhere near hip hop.

[doodofdoods]

Man, I can't believe with lyrics like that, that there are people who give a shit about this being or not being freestyle. fuck freestyle. Did you hear those lyrics? do you comprehend what's being said? Take a look at this world, Mos Def just summed it up beautifully in 1:22, and you idiots want to talk about whether it's freestyle or not. Wake up, it's time to take action against the corruption.

[iownedbh]

1:22? idixt? dat 5hit end5 at 1:20 wtf r u talkin bxut

[rafapat]

he says its fake bonanza at the end of the track!!! Just because someone posts this and titles it "FREESTYLE" it doesnt mean that Mos claims it to be freestyle! Mos is the shit!! and there are many others that are the shit too!!!!!!

[kevGee09]

he used this on the song "fake bonanza".

[chiph22]

Mos is so nasty...respect real talk youngins. This aint no superman dance, chain swing low bull crap.

[rellg00d]

hell yea

[GenericallyJackulous]

Aint Dat Da Troof!

[annitra01]

he has skills,but this freestyle was nothing and if u think this was tight,listen to freestyles by rebel ins,cannibus,dmx,jin,gza,shoul­d i continue hip hop virgins

[Inky624]

hip hop virgin?? what the eff are you talking about..dmx?? no offense he shouldnt even belong in the same sentence with mos. and like everybody said up there you douchebag its on his true magic cd fake bonanza is the song title..look it up..youd be suprised how many people just spit writtens that claim they are freestyles but mos said it was on fake bonanza he was just trying to let the people know whats happening and where the world is headed..WORLD WAKE UP!

[m1randuhh]

dude's crazy intelligent.

[Tmacfraser]

im sorry, i like mos def but that freestyle was wack

[mistorsunshine]

Holy shit, that was fucking tight.

Sweet Benjamins ref, this guy IS on another level, he's so ill.

And he's a good actor too. Mos Def's the shit.

[CIassicalGuitar]

true freestyle.  too many prewriters today trying to make it seem like they r lyrical genius'

[tboston03]

this guys mind is on another level

[crg777]

i dont even really like rap or hip hop but mos def is fucking sick! that man has some fucking talent

[scrubstastic3456]

wow

[farrukh]

i do not think this is freestyle, because i think i have that song, it is called fake bonanza, from one of his albulms

[JamPakked]

hes still and ill freestyler

[F1dgets]

you're right.. but still great.

[Triccogekuhan]

The video wasn't in sync, but that was Mos. Hottest concert I've ever been to. Mos remains top five even if he went on a ten-year hiatus.

[nferris88]

yeah i have to agree that this isn't his best freestyle ever. man i saw rakim freestyle about a year ago at first ave in minneapolis, and mark my words youtube, someday that shit will be taught in universities just like charlie parker's music.

[Exsuperabilis]

i know mos def's voice like my own, i listen to him all the time...its his. might not be right vid for it, but its his voice

[huik23]

That's not freestyle, that's from "fake bonaza" !

[Alriginal21]

it was like a fake bonanza mathematics mix..

[a9m0i0r]

... either the sound is not synced with the video or thats not him.

[Exsuperabilis]

its not synced thats him trust me

[flores7mp]

wow its tight but hes done better free styling

[qwooshbag]

haha shut up twogay4life86

[twocool4life86]

[elwinelwin]

Lol he just said that, you retarded or somin?

[amazinero]

Wish I could'a been there so I could'a blazed a fat under the umbrella. Would'a been a nice. Still nice to hear that spit with the rain as percussion.

[cubencis]

this isnt freestlye- its from 'crime and medicine'

[BoogieMan2345]

its actually fake bonanza. and this vid was added 7 months before Tru3 Magic was released.

[mkysmallz]

[naterizzle53]

[Mourningpalace27]

[BossPlaya17]

Good comment bro!

[BoogieMan2345]

[ULTrabzon]

they think he's better just because he sells more records and gets played on the radio.

[mLOVEsY]

ONE OF THE BEST RAPPERS ALIVE!

[qdis662]

BLACK STAR KEEP SHININ'

[yoosunghee101]

lil wayne is fucking annoying. his voice is annoying and all these "rappers" these days rap about nothing. none of it makes sense or has meaning. mos def and kalib tweli make good shit.

[SamShah33]

Wow, You reallyyy know your rappers! But lets try TALIB KWELI...not KALIB TWELI, lol.

[yoosunghee101]

sorry. lol i was drunk. -.- blackstar is tight though. i like gang starr.

[ladylickkerr]

kalib tweli ...... gtfoh ....... blackstar

[broozer31]

how the hell does lil wayne get mentioned in a mos def video. mos murders wayne in every aspect of the game. ppl say wayne is versatile? wtf. he says the same garbage & lies over just different beats. mos is definition ARTIST. maddest rhyme skills ever. & sings & can also do rock & soul and wtf ever he wants bc he IS music!

[jcbnnz]

lil wayne is creative and has swagger,but mos def has sick swagger,he's more lyrical and he's a vetaren. oh,and he's hellla better at freestyling.

when talkin bout mos def,he can be arguably the best rapper ever.

[az005us]

NO ONE touches Mos.

[cmonenemy]
