the estatic

friday 2nd october 2009
bu's sleeping, wifey is out, fola and seun upstairs xboxing or something
mos def's nu cd 'the estatic on rotation
i want to try and write something about this cd while it plays and hopefully i will get some inspiration.Firstly, it sounds very middle eastern but funky. dante smith has always pushed the boundaries both in hip hop and acting and also as the host of def poetry jam, the broda is a real reniassance man, music, film and poetry.
produced mainly by madlib and his kid bruv oh no, yes you heard right oh no (black people i hear you say) and yes we also have another producer nicknamed NO ID !!
i still can't find anything to write about the cd but just to keep it short its different and i will stop there but if you like your hip hop different, cop it
guests Fela kuti , rick the ruler, talib kweli
peace
