Title: Worth the wait!!
Review: This album is definitely worth the wait if you're a Mos Def fan. If you have been following his work before this album, then you'll know Mos has been working with his band Black Jack Johnson. There is a lot of live work done on this album. This is more than a basic "hip hop" album (Sample based production and rhymes about nothing), this album is an eclectic mix of Mos Def's musical influences up to now. It has a mix of Blues, Soul (Marvin Gaye joint is tight!), Rock, Jazz, and of course good old deeper level hip hop. If you are expecting Black on Both Sides, this is not it, listen to that album...open your mind and appreciate that we have artists like Mos Def that release music that isn't tainted.
