Mos Def – Casa Bey

Behold a new single from senior citizen rapper Mos Def, who’s been spending more time talking greasy about Weezy and Jigga than plugging his new album, due out June 9. Eskay wonders if he’s taking shots at Bey with his Twitter account, @MrBey. Hmmm…I wonder if he’s simply trying to drum up some publicity for The Ecstatic.

Mos is great, but the less said about “Casa Bey” the better. I can’t believe I paused D-Sides to listen to this schizophrenic mess. It would be nice to see him recapture the mojo that made Black on Both Sides a mastercraft, but I’m no longer holding my breath.
