There are a few tracks on this Cd that are pretty tight - but there are some where it's not at all classic Mos Def. I have his black on both sides as well as the 4 CD pack made by Sattan (not available worldwide) and this new CD is totally off, with a lot of rock incorporated for no reason - where Mos is screaming throughout the songs. Just meaningless yelling. And there's even a song that he produced that is all music - rock music - and he doesn't even rap at all. It just seems like he's trying to be too creative and not holding on to his roots.
