Black Star

See also: Mos Def

Black Star is the magical pairing of two hip-hop geniuses, Talib Kweli and Mos Def. The Brooklyn-based duo came together to start a book store and record one album, then went the natural ways of the solo careers. Both have enough lyrical dexterity and reserves of deep thought to sustain albums on their own, but together they pack a marvellous punch.

Black Star (Recommended)
Rawkus (1998)
Black Star can't be summed up by heady lyrical boasting. If you consider yourself a rap fan, pick it up and listen.
