@FIZZUM shut the fuck up you idiot. do YOUR research because you clearly haven't done enough. Mos Def actively speaks out against the illuminati conspiracy theories in hip-hop. he thinks its all bullshit, which it is.
It is sad but true. Rappers are nothing but pawns. They're not running shit. They are only put in the line of fire while old white men get the real checks.
@DeftJay yeah, and if i was him I would have added some lyrics to the affect that "if I get merc then it was the illuminati/masonic party lah -dee -dah -dee". so it would be clear as to who the enemy is.
Mos Def is just one of a handfull of artists that had the balls to speak out against these record execs controlling and ruining hip hop. I've also heard Pimp C & DMX speak out against them and 2pac called out Quincy Jones once because Quincy apparently asked for some gay shit which is what Mos was talking about when he mentioned "Quasi homosexuals. Its deeper than rap.
y u tink GREAT rappers like common, talib kweli, mos def, dont get money like dat (well thas how it looks like 2 mi. if they r, mi mistake). WAKE UP PPL!!!!! DAMN!!!!!
thas the truth, and nuttin but the truth. Dem illuminati niggas been took rap over. give rappers like soulja boy n other "rappers" BIG ASS CHECKS 2 keep their mouth SHUT!!!! this aint new....smh....
You aren't offended because you're Jewish are you. Mos Def is probably referring to Lyhor Cohen, who left Def Jam to run Atlantic's rap exploitation machine.
MMA dude, please don't be one of the simpletons who think all blacks who possess cultural consciousness are Muslims; Arabs have never been a friend to blacks or Africans and Islam is definitely not a black religion. Mos Def is not,and never has been, a Muslim.
so what if he's a muslim i don't get the issue. what a muslim can't be a decent artist?? yeah mos kicks ass and yeah he's a muslim, so what. geez people are full of hate.....
ahaha wayyy off homeboyyy I'm full mexican, born a catholic!
and btw listen up genius, Mos Def IS a muslim, he converted sometime after his 18th birthday. His dad was also a muslim. Not saying there's anything wrong with that I think all religions can be quite beautiful (except for those weird denominational ones), but anyways those are the facts.
geesh dude that's pretty graphic... are you coming on to me? I think you are, that was a pretty detailed scenario you just gave me you really took your sweat time fantasizing about it! but sorry to tell you I don't roll like that, I like the pussy, you should really try women some time their great!
I have had white hot hate for him since the 90s. I can't stand him and I can not understand why people tolerate him and buy his "product". He has such a blatant asshole and exploiter who cares nothing for the music except in terms of making it more vile and demeaning his "artists" to less than base level. I'm sure he calls them his slaves/niggers/coons. Because he is running a coon show.

it's the truth people. listen to jigga the nigga jay z, fiddy, and the rest of them weezies etc etc etc etc etc etc at your own risk. m'kay! hiphop is rancid.
Blog3000, i don't know who you are and i don't where your comeing from(your a brit i see, pakistani?! maybe), but we both have one think in commen we both love Mos Def's music(and vision if might add!), one thing as ISREALI that iv'e learn trough time is that we all are "pawns in a game" that is played by the big shots of politics...what i'm saying in a matter of fact is that with all do respect to our belives(alot of respect) we are first humans and that's what's mos is all about ,so i belive.
why show charlie rose when he says "old white men is running this rap shit"? charlie rose is ethical, non-corporate, etc. probably not the one you wanna demonize.
think about it the eastcoast westcoast beef the north vs the south was all B.S. to get us fighting ourself so in the end the winning wud have 2 make pop music 2 stay alive 2 get air then they got us
"Hit the streets and perform for us("us"- the industry heads)...
Role hard and bring it(money) on to us..."
Industry using rappers as puppets just to get richer..they dont care about the content whter its negative or positive...they just care if it sells...and right now..positivity doesnt! Mos def!!! Preach on !!
word up man , BK all day nigga , and Yo , stop with the comment like ``keep hip-hop alive`` that`s bullshit , everyday , more people listen hip-hop but that`s wrong , because everyday more people listen to 50 cent,Soulja Boy or Lil Gay son , that`s wrong man , who da fuck iz Lil Wayne ??? FUCK THAT! R.I.P. 90s rap music :(( Peace y`all
and i have just started to find out what real rap is all about, and now its disappering...
The reason was that i couldnt se trough the mainstream rap before, i was just disgusted everytime i heard people like 50 cent, chamillionare etc singing about their material wealth and their bitches and bling.
People like Mos Def, Lupe fiasco, Jedi Mind tricks sings about the real life, and what's important.
yo, this shit is the truth, i turn dow a deal a year cuz i'm not into being the corporate dickhole... so all u would be rappers listen up... there's an old saying in naples, "just when u think you fuckin them... u find out they've been fuckin you..." beware the rape over...
Ay RUMPRANGER...i believe 50 cent said it best..."i call a square a square and a circle a circle, so if you actin like a bitch ima call you a bitch"...dont talk shit about mos def
c'mon ,dont b a "player hater,he dont play games,so get the fuck outta his face dawg,+THATS CLOSE!"NO1 CAN FUCK WITH HIM,ONLY MAYBE2 ON HIS LEVEL,ALWAYS ON HIS GAME,lolxx
side note to this song: the first release of the album "the new danger" had the "rape over" on it but then it got re-released and the label removed the song. another note is that mos is obviously not pleased w/the label because his "tru magic" cd he released didn't have any album artwork or cover which was probably his way of saying "f ya'll" but the label re-released that and added the album artwork and such. mos is just going to finish hs album commitment and release the anything else indy IMO

dumbass! you have no clue what you're talkin about and it is so obvious. why would he write a song about giving a shit (actually many songs) if he didn't care? you can always spot a fool, they're the ones that can't keep they're mouths closed on subjects they aren't educated in. pathetic
How is he supposed to refer to an Israeli? How do I refer to an Iraqi? Or an American? What the fuck is wrong with referring to the country someone came from? By the way: he wasn't talking about Jews, he was talking about Lyor Cohen of Warner Music Group

dumbass! you have no clue what you're talkin about and it is so obvious. why would he write a song about giving a shit (actually many songs) if he didn't care? you can always spot a fool, they're the ones that can't keep they're mouths closed on subjects they aren't educated in. pathetic

How is he supposed to refer to an Israeli? How do I refer to an Iraqi? Or an American? What the fuck is wrong with referring to the country someone came from? By the way: he wasn't talking about Jews, he was talking about Lyor Cohen of Warner Music Group

Theres nothing racist about that, so stating the fact that a jewish bloke is utterly in charge of "black" music is racist now?
Its just fact.
