Slept On Cd's: Round 3

Sorry for the lack of updates. It's been a busy summer. But I'm back for Round 3 of Slept On CD's. This week features *drum roll*


BlackStar by BlackStar

This cd is a true definition of what hip hop really is. Talib Kweli and Mos Def (From the Native Tounges) have given us what rarely comes along, good lyrics, great beats, and positive vibes. From the banging intro to the end track, you will not be disappointed. Definition, Respiration (with Common), and Brown Skin Lady are the standout tracks. Hi Tek has come with some of the best production I've heard in a long time while Mos Def and Talib Kweli NEVER slack off on the rhymes. While this cd came out in 1999, it was ahead of it's time and is still as enjoyable to ANYONE as Illmatic was to NaS fans and hip hop fans. It is, yet again, a cd you should NOT sleep on. Get it ASAP.
