    Mos def verse on this song is one the 10 best verses in hip-hop dont @ me

      Straight facts

      Top 3 for me, I honestly put it 1st most of the time, the verse is just incredibly dense, super educational and is still relevant to this day. The man was a prophet.

    Bro you missing out on Talib Kweli, please don't do yourself an injustice by neglecting him. There's a reason why Mos Def would be in a group with him, they grew up together... Peace ✌️ I suggest mathematics by Mos Def

      I actually recommend reflection eternal. Specially gems like 'four woman', 'love language', 'get by'.

      Facts.. I don't wanna go this route but feel I need to.. jay-z: "if lyrics sold, truthfully, I'd be talib kweli...." so the biggest business rapper in the game admits dumbing down lyrics and uses kweli as example of lyrical rapper.. nuff said

    The best!!! Talib is an animal!! Blackstar was my intro to hip hop back in high school

    Talibs verse can get muddled if people don't catch that he's talking about Louis Farrakhan, but Mos' verse is just straight facts and fire and relates to everything we've seen in society and music in the last 20 years "a lot of jokers out running in place, chasing the style, be a lot going on beneath the empty smiles", man's just got that ability to not only write a lyrical masterpiece but also educate a whole lot of people with the words if they want to listen.

    There's also a reason why Jay-z said if skills= dollars that's who he'd rhyme like. Talib is a legend.

    Big Blackstar fan since like 98 I'm having a flashback heard this song 100 times and still love it. 52 and trying to find the next Mos.
    Thx for the time travel.

    Yeah Mos and Talib had a group called Blackstar and their debut album is a massive hip-hop classic, they have a track called Respiration featuring Common as well that definitely goes hard, otherwise their track Re:Definition is also a harder fun track thats just lyrical.
    For some hard just Mos though you got Travellin Man, Auditorium, Mathematics, Hip Hop and Quiet Dog.

    If you want to grow affection for talib, try to listen K.O.S from this album

    The entire album is dope. BUT I would love to hear a reaction to Mathematics by Mos Def. It's in my top10 of songs due to content, flow, beat and cadence.
