Nas & Mos Def call in to 106 & Park to Express Their Sentiments On The Sean
2008-04-28 19:48:00 I find it amusing that during times of strive, and blatant injustices such as the Sean Bell verdict, BET allows the “consciousness” rappers to speak and bring forth their assessments. But as soon as the case becomes yesteryears news in a few months, its back to makin’ it rain on these hoes. Regardless Nas, Talib ...

Mos Def Previews His New Song ?Pretty Dancer? At 92nd Street Y In New York?
2008-04-10 00:14:00 Yea the brotha likes to sing, but don’t for a second think that since he’s dropping a track entitled ‘Pretty Dancers’, means he’s going soft. The track is actually dedicated to the GOAT in the boxing ring, Mohammed Ali. For after he dealt the forever memorable ass wupping upon Sonny Liston in 65′, he referred ...

"Be Kind Rewind" Review
2008-03-17 04:07:00 ?Be Kind Rewind?2008**** out of ****Director: Michel GondryCast: Jack Black, Mos Def, Danny GloverDare if I say how much I have a HATE for Michel Gondry. ?The Science of Sheep? made me nothing but mad and ?Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? just be one of the most overrated movies since ?Titanic.? He even made Dave Chappelle look boring, and I?m a lifelong Dave Chappelle fan. But finally, it looks like Michel Gondry has grown a great pair of balls, for not only does he show why we love movies so much, but how loving movies can bring one together.Film critic Tony DeFrancisco approves of that message.?Be Kind Rewind? takes place in a video store called? umm? Be Kind Rewind. The store is a national landmark in Passaic, New Jersey for it is the place where supposedly jazz musician Fats Waller was born. While owner Mr. Fletcher (Danny Glover) is out of town for a ?memorial of Waller? (which he really is staying in a room across the street from West Coast Video, spying on the owner an...

Authentic Rants :::: Mis-concept-ions of an Art-form
2008-03-04 02:24:00 Driving down the road the other night I decided to put on the radio and listen to my favorite variety station that will go unnamed. A Rap song was blaring from the radio just before the announcer cut it off to give us his take on the song. Stating "This music is trash and never will be anything worthwhile to ever come from it." I could not help but to be alarmed that a radio Jock had the balls to say what he really felt about a song. He went on to say that "it should have ended a long time ago, that Rappers such as Soulja boy are not artist and pretend to be a part of the art/music community", and "get away with it by dubbing themselves as entertainers." He said this because he was uneducated about Rap/Hip-Hop as a whole. Someone needed to school him, I am writing this in hopes that I can reach him and people like him.I cant help it but to agree with his sentiment, but I have done some research on the subject of whether or not, the style of rap that is performed by Soulja Boy is an...

Gondry?s Cinematic Breakthrough ?Be Kind Rewind? Proves Again He?s an Artis
2008-02-22 10:26:00 CHICAGO ? Michel Gondry?s latest cinematic breakthrough ?Be Kind Rewind? grants passage into his magical imagination and proves yet again he?s one of today?s artistic giants. Whimsicality, childlike humor and unforgettable imagery line the palette of this film, which is a heartfelt yet hilarious tale of two friends saving a VHS rental shop (itself named Be Kind Rewind) from technology by instigating a passion for film in their neighborhood. Set in tired Passaic, N.J., the shop is located in a building that?s rumored to be the birthplace of jazz icon Fats Waller. It?s owned by Mr. Fletcher (Danny Glover), who is faced with the inevitable gentrification of condominiums and DVD rental stores.

Jack Black Drops Biblical ?Year One? Bomb in ?Be Kind Rewind? Interview
2008-01-07 05:12:00 CHICAGO ? Though actors aren?t supposed to chat it up about their other films when they?re being interviewed specifically for one, every now and then they do and the focus of the interview changes entirely. When Collider.com on Saturday published an interview with Jack Black about his Feb. 22 film ?Be Kind Rewind,? details willingly slipped about his upcoming film ?Year One?. Mos Def (left) and Jack Black in ?Be Kind Rewind?.Photo credit: IMDb Though the particulars of that project have been kept quietly sacred and despite the ongoing writer?s strike, we learn the following about ?Year One?: ?Year One? is a biblical comedy. It?s about the Old Testament. I?m just a dude wandering through biblical times. I?m not a famous character ? you would have heard of before. Me and Michael Cera are just sort of wandering through and you get to see all these old stories from the Torah told through agnostic ? sort of ? eyes. The talent in the film feels partially ?Superbad? as it features both...

MOS DEF VS. SUGE KNIGHT LOOK-A-LIKE!!
2007-08-16 17:09:00 CLICK HERE TO SEE MOS DEF GET IN SCUFFLE W/PRESS! Mos Def got in a tizzy with the paparazzi outside of Hyde nightclub last night. Pissed off that the photog wouldn't delete the shot, Mos first used his words to try and convince the guy to do what he wanted saying, "I'm not from around here" and "You're violating my space." Just when it seemed eveything was peace one of Mos Def's people tried to snatch the camera away. The photographer who by the way resembles Suge Knight held on held on for dear life. Anyway...just check out the video. I feel you Mos on being violated and all, but as a member of the press myself-these folks are just trying to do their job! You're a celebrity...it's all part of the territory, so deal with it.

Racists find Mos Def on YouTube Reading Zinn, Killing Bush
2007-04-13 05:25:00 IntroHowardZinn.org recently let fans of Zinn?s seminal ?A People?s History of the United States of America? know that a new video on YouTube has political musico Mos Def reading a passage from the book. Maybe it doesn?t sound all that exciting, but it?s nice to see pop culture and progressive politics collude, even if it is in the most subtle of ways. Not so subtle, however, is the political music video by Mos Def, Immortal Technique and Eminem called ?Tell the Truth.? The short video points the finger at Bush as the cause of 9/11, and calls for an end to the ?professional liars? that are the ?fake christians? and ?fake politicians? in America. The video is graphically dynamic, with words and images constantly building off each other and making perpendicular turns reminiscent and no-doubt inspired by the fabulous, brilliant, trendsetting and über-political web video ?What Barry Says.? But what?s most interesting about this video, and others like it by Mos Def and crew, is th...
