Nothing Like You
To those who are familiar with MosDef you may recall his 1998 group project with fellow Brooklyn MC Talib Kweli in which the duo fell under the alias Blackstar and created what many consider to be a classic album.In an on the spot street interview this year Mos challenged Kanye West, Jay-Z, and Lil Wayne against his crew of Black Thought of the Roots crew and few others in a lyrical battle.Recently, MosDef formed a group with Young Money member, Curren$y & up and comer (as well as Erykah Badu's baby daddy) Jay Electronica. The very unusual trio was matched with an equally abstract name “Center Edge Territory”.This guy evidently has a passion for teamwork.Now Mos,RZA,Jim Jones,Pharoe Monch,Nikki Wray,Raekwon,Q-Tip and NOE have combined forces with blues band the Black Keys to create the monster that is BLAKROC. "Nothing like You"is the funky single for their album which comes out November 27th, in which Mos croons a catchy and creative chorus while Jones mans the verses.though it was short notice on the promo I'll still be coping it and wishing them success.
