In case you’re wondering what to listen to today after erasing all of your Kanye West playlists . . . #Repost @boilerroomtv ・・・ #OnThisDay in 1999, Mos Def released his debut solo album, Black On Both Sides. Arriving a year after the rapper collaborated with Talib Kweli on a Black Star LP, the 17-track Black On Both Sides featured production from DJ Premier, ATCQ’s Ali Shaheed Muhammad and Diamond D and was widely lauded by critics. It’s arguably the defining album of the Rawkus Records era. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo1wDYXHCtP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1m8un7ymjubep

Happy 20th Birthday!!! On September 29, 1998, Mos Def & Talib Kweli released their groundbreaking collaboration, Black Star. Hopefully this album touched your life and soul in some way.

I have only asked 2 MC’s to sign anything over the years. The story behind me asking GURU for his autograph is deep and goes back to the first days of Rawkus. It is an honor to have this as a prized collection in my life. Happy 15 year anniversary to “The Ownerz” GURU and @djpremier @gangstarr4ever
