http://www.ticketmaster.com/venue/32905 Mos Def and Jay Electronica at House Of Blues
Mos Def emerged onto the recording scene in the mid-’90s and quickly rose toward the top before diversifying into both acting and activism. No doubt this has helped to cement his position of favor in the hearts of many, rap lovers and haters alike; it certainly helped him gain a spot on Stuff White People Like, alongside such classics as yoga, organic food, and coffee. His new The Ecstatic, featuring guest work from Madlib and Slick Rick, gets him firmly back in the music game with his best work in 10 years, but he's already looking ahead, working on the forthcoming Simpatico with another collaborator, rapper/producer Jay Electronica.
