BLAKROC webisode 2: feat. Mos Def

[GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep]

I would love to kick it with them

[Spiderfinger31]

loving the video footage MOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrLocoPictures]

hmm interesting looking forward

[ppetracco]

Green Wurlitzer. Yeish!

[MusicMan1330]

How come Black Thought wasn't on this album, but Billy Danze got 2 tracks!?

[elcattiv0]

@MusicMan1330 because it was a new york thing ;) i wished black thought was in, but he's from philly :/

[MusicMan1330]

@elcattiv0 Holy shit, i've had this for over a year and i just realized that every MC on this record are all from NY! Wow, thank you for that. (:

[ajstma]

Mos killed every track he touched on this. A+ above everyone else. No disrespect to the other artists either

[whisperinthesilence]

I didn't know Mof Def could sing. He's actually not bad!

[HildaandHenryShow]

BRILLIANT



[giseba7]

Mos Def reminds me of someone I knew.

[urmothersmom18]

mos lookin fresh on that arrival

[ColdGripHandle]

love that studio

[matmanpeteful]

what is the hat mos deg is wearing in this video??

[vtecyo]

@matmanpeteful that's a yoimiuri giants cap. they're like the yankees of the japanese league

[matmanpeteful]

what is the hat mos deg is wearing in this video??

[michaeljackson407]

The guitar solo/lick dealin the beginning is so simple yet so amazing.

[tkent52]

mos is racist.. listen ot his rhymes.. duh.. so is talib i would never buy one of his albums if he wasnt one of the dopest emcees alive!

[senad55]

Mos def is a Muslim..... U can't be Muslim and racist

[Daigoro07]

@senad55

yeah right..

look at the middle east and they way lots of them hate the rest of the world (especially western countries like germany, france, austria, USA,...).

racism is either in a person or not. religion has nothing to do with it.

[june21stgem]

1 problem.... Mos Def hates white people and especially Talib Kweli... They have spoke brielfy about it in raps.. They wont point it out cause we buy all of their shit.. You can think Im wrong.. But I know Im right.. Theyre both racist as racist can get...! Especially Talib! Anyway f it.. Im just givin u the heads up.. - Nicholas

[LiftedBeats]

@june21stgem... naw, Mos is too smart to be racist 

[IMustaGotLost]

@LiftedBeats What about the Muslims that hate everything about Western Civilization? May not be considered racism, but it sure is strong hatred. They hate us more than we hate them. (Not every Muslim in the middle east is this way of course)

[osarsour]

@june21stgem Hahahaha. Yeah Mos Def sure is a racist. That's why he's collaborating with the Black Keys. Because he's a racist. You're an idiot. I guess he also collaborated with the Gorillaz, Adam Levine, Amy Winehouse, and millions more because he's such a damn racist.

[MCLemonyfresh]

@osarsour not to mention he's on dexter acting with people of all races.

[johnschool]

dont eva go to the record lable.. eva!!

[aridderb]

you mean talib lyrics stick to ya rib? I mean thats my favorite cd that i play in my crib

[nosympathyskates]

@aridderb haha hlove that track

[SteelersFreak108]

For everyone going crazy about how they should've add more people, Blakroc isn't done, they're supposed to release more material next year.

[lvowens11]

its too bad this will never be played on the radio.. that is until i conquer the world!!

[ThaCLIFFBROS]

One of my fav MC's, one of my fav Bands! Dope!

[NauticalNots]

dan please grow back the beard!

[puffnbrew2]

Mos Def is definitely one of hip hops greatest artist, his music will be listened to for years and years.

[Gatz777]

I wished they put jay electronica on this. He would work so well with mighty mos def

[willmatic16]

@Gatz777 mos jay and currensy on a track man! center edge territory

[Gatz777]

@willmatic16 Yea i know they work together for center edge, but i also wish jay was on blak roc too lol.

[julian1559]

I like how everyone is in studio and not emailing verses!

[wgain]

Mos def should do more blues

[dickmaguffin]

no disrespect to dame and the other artists, but i wish mos def would have like spearheaded this, he would've had ill cats like the roots crew (black thought, dice raw, PORN, truck north, peedi crack) all those cats who appeared on the roots latest album how i got over. Blu as well, Exile could have laid down some beatbox... as well as rappers other people have mentioned, i would have loved common and talib for sure. How about Lupe Fiasco?? That would be bananas. A great album nonetheless

[wormsrock]

Is there another BlackRoc album coming out? More suggested rappers:

MF Doom

GZA, Ghostface(pretty much any other wu tang guys)

One Be Lo

Rakim

[9B1T]

only MOS can sound so pure with no additional fixing

[kreepkontrol]

Mos Def is the chillest rapper out there

[kirklandtee]

Yeah i was particulily dissappointed Black Thought didn't appear on this album.

[RicoSoulSearching]

the most definitive.

[whabashaki]

Does anyone know what kind of hat mos is wearing in this? Cuz he wears the same one when he does quiet dog on letterman, and i want it so bad!

[mrfriendharvey]

@whabashaki

1954 NY Giants

[whabashaki]

@mrfriendharvey thank you very much

[Dedbeatfunkmaster]

@whabashaki

Yomiuri Giants Hat

[whabashaki]

@Dedbeatfunkmaster Alright thanks, cuz i couldn't find the ny giants one anywhere.

[g4thz]

@whabashaki Yomiuri Giants

[1984bandito]

I tell everybody about the Black Keys!

[experance]

i wanna hear Black Thought,MF DOOM and Talib kweli over this.. shiit that would have been ILL as Fuck

[nickbarkleylive]

Are these cut down from the clips on the website??

[dogshit71]

Im loving to see that we are finally not ashamed to claim what was our anyway!

[BornskiAECC]

Awesome stuff!

[Paulshaggy]

You're guys know what ya doin'!

[jwill808]

Im happy to see dame doing his thing again hes the best at what he does

[dlmason93]

dan has no beard now, and in later webisodes it huge

[logic33157]

I love how this was documented, feels so real. Like your in there.

[WAZmc]

If it don't make dollars then it don't make SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dmorales03]

New Year's Eve w/ the Blak Keyes in Chi, cant ask for any other way to bring in the year. Hope to hear some rhymes...Amazing project guys, you guys are making way to becoming my fav band that starts w/ black...Also encouraging, time to make dollars, not cents ---->legendary

[three25eleven]

never go to the record label! ever! ahahaha

[damiraclekid34]

this studio is one of gods creation

[yoyoyohoMEYGSON]

needs some red and mef

[markaaron102]

mos def - DRUNK AS HELL LMAO!!!!!!

[Preset1]

I think you'd find that he is actually stoned.

[vjiggy81]

yo, if i had a music studio like this, it would take me months of hibernation before anybody knows wheres my body, infact i would never leave, or only make it a point to stay there, always......

[BLACKFONZIRELLI]

yeah i'm a little jealous myself. this is beautiful

[ghostshipone]

me too!! I'd go all Costanza with the bar fridge, blanket and sh-t

[misterlivic]

this needs to be a real group....i'd love to to hear a 15+ tracc lp....

[bborda4life1]

far far faresh!!!

[C31th803]

They need Andre 3000 up in there one time for your mind.

[beautyintheory]

zack de la rocha and keys!

[Peytonsbeard]

dude there are so many other fantastic rappers that need to be workin with the keys

[stacylanejellison]

None better than MOS DEF

[cocosbehr]

What kind of guitar is Dan Auerbach playing in this video?

[stacylanejellison]

Looks like a Rickenbacher or a gretcsh

[thejokemeister1]

harmony h-78

[FatherGregorian]

Who's that hot girl in there?

[KARASUNSTAR]

mos def is angelic

[badLuckrapp]

album is classic

[44RapAce44]

People they should/should have put on this album:

Blu

Talib Kweli

eLZhi

Black Thought

[mcw09876]

Man i could not agree with you more-- I love the black keys and am a REAL hip hop fan until mainstream killed it-- Black thought and Talib would have crushed this

[DeftFlow]

There will probably be a sequel if you think about it

[billyvassi]

K ideally so many more artists should contribute but CANT ANYONE ENJOY SHIT FOR WHAT IT IS ANYMORE?

feel blessed we got this.

[AnorexicSumo]

hell yes! looks like it's time for blakroc vol. 2.

[44RapAce44]

they definitely need some more rappers.

[agonzizzle18]

naw they got the core rappers too many makes it feel like mixtape status...would bring down the feel of the album. best hiphop album I have bought in years!

[44RapAce44]

Next album then...keep Mos Def and Pharoahe, and add the guys I said. That would be a classic.

[agonzizzle18]

agreed...the more hiphop greats you add is fine its when you start adding scrubs to the mix that's when the album loses its strength but I agree with you

[elcattiv0]

@44RapAce44 sure those rappers are dope. but ity a New York thing ;) blu i guess is west. elzhi imo detroit and black somewhere south.. but true, talib would have been nice in this :D

[caseykruger]

@44RapAce44

MF DOOM

[ELEKWENTFOLK]

@44RapAce44 theres like a hundred MC's i'd want on this album... you could name them all day.

but that would be wack cause the project wouldn't be the same... it's about having those few voices... it's what makes it unique

[Mcleod2daMax]

@44RapAce44 tru dat son!

[ugc1]

@44RapAce44 Agreed. Blackthought would've made this even more ill.

[shmantiks]

@44RapAce44 most definitely (no pun intended) and i think you gotta add ghost to that list too

[shmantiks]

@44RapAce44 

[chbobcats20]

@44RapAce44 I definitely agree wit Black Thought, he'd be perfect on an album like this.

[Houseofharmonytv]

@44RapAce44 i don't think that...that would of been corny to me...everyone who he had on it was great..q tip, mos, the black keys...its was slightly genius...those people wouldn't of done the album that much jusitice..but black thought..i'll admit..would of been a nice addition..he is one of my fav also

[willmatic16]

@44RapAce44 hell yeah man! Blu especially, this shit is too perfect for him

[ryuKizoid]

@44RapAce44 Andre 3000?

[KylaCharted]

Goosebumps at 3:25

I cannot fuckin wait for this disc.

[Gilberted22]

Thats a hot Yomiuri Giants cap. Looking forward to coppin this on Friday.

[jellyfishsandwix]

ahahah, check out the creases in mos's t shirt. that shit is brand new.

[killacali1134]

THIS NIGGA FLY

[blasphemebourne]

d0pe

[1BlaK99]

mos gotta be high as hell. look at all that water he's drinkin

[lsainte]

All I know is that this track better be on the album... (the one where Mos Raps)

[yummdiddy]

mos doesnt rap on it he sings the hook :( they have jim jones failing 2 verses on here

[DaGrimeyBootMan]

ay im in no shape, form, or fashion a jim jones fan but jimmy did his thing on these verses. when youre in the kind of company as the participants in this blakroc project, you GOTTA come strong... no way in hell he would be on a track with mos talkin bout "ballin" nahmeen?

[tcahyulcocr]

it is..it's called On The Vista

i remember seeing it on youtube somewheres..

[devonsokay]

bumps. bumps all over.

[danielhl22]

[MayDeefromBK]

[coop1974a]

[mpchead621]

[Aykeybeatz]

[TheGingerman89]

[sebbye12]

[Cincinnatianer]

he gets mad respect

[mpchead621]

lol cause he's high as hell

[luck420365]

who like 2 hear common on some of their stuff

[microcrubeguy]

I actually would... maybe one of their acoustic joints or softer songs similar to songs by the Black Keys like the Lengths and You're the One, but ya fuck everyone else I feel you on that too

[luck420365]

lovn this!!! the feeln i get when i hear this is unexplainable it make my body tingle. it's better than a mindgasim this is more than hip hop. an the part with nikki wray omg i'm from virginia i damn near went full blow retard off that

[krephead]

This shit is gonna be on..But they should let MF Doom do a verse on a track.

[braincras]

fuck, i'm all in for some MF shit in there.

[HardKnockLife2]

i wish! or immortal technique

[UrbanCrunkMovement]

Which one of you morons gave that a thumbs down

[TheShaqatAmaqShow]

This is confirmed bananas!!! I love Mos!!

[glorydiver3000]

[perezeddy13]

[justjz23]

4:38 ill

[perezeddy13]

[MsSuperArena]

damon dash is a complete tool

[JoelDlgd]

Simply Genious

[mr10am]

hoochie coochie is such a sick track. first we get blakroc in nov, and then a new black keys album in spring, awesome!!!!

[deucefoAM206]

Mos def is the Beethoven of hip hop. no one else can create such masterpieces on the spot. Not to mention the insane music from the black keys. This whole album is going to be a work like no other.

[HardKnockLife2]

I love it.

[thebigjed]

The Black Keys can do no wrong! They should be the two new members of Wu-Tang after this!

[mikes1929]

I can't believe I have to wait 2 more months to have this. That track they're doing at the end of this clip is just so sick!
