The combination of Mos Def and Talib Kweli has somewhat changed since Mos’ name change to Yasiin Bey, but the duo is still working under the Black Star moniker. As the two continue to tour together, it is clear the group is as solid as ever. This morning, Black Star released “Fix Up,” a track produced by Madlib, and also released “You Already Knew” produced by Oh No, both from their upcoming mixtape Aretha.
Using Blackstarhub.com as a set up, the group released “Fix Up” to the ‘net earlier this morning. The song can now purchased on iTunes. “You Already Knew” was released to the site this afternoon.
“If y’all good Black Star will release a free song off our top secret Aretha Franklin mixtape today [too],” Talib said in his message to fans, before reposting the URL address for Black Star Hub.
The cover for “Fix Up” is pictured in this article. No additional details have been released regarding this “top secret” mixtape. More information will follow.
Furthermore, Black Star is going to be performing in New York and Los Angeles in December. Venues and ticket information can be found on Black Star Hub.
YEAH.
Hope these dudes can make a solid comeback.
they been touring all year and have been killing it i already seen them twice and am looking forward to the next time
Where the regs at? Yasiin Bey is a weird ass name yo, Mos def always and forever. # classic hip hop
das what THE FUCK is up! bout time
That is so fucking amazing, far beyond my expectations. Such a beautiful music.
Lowkey Soundtrack to the Struggle!
DX wont even put it in the album release section!
Saw them perform in Hawaii last weekend, the show was a classic. See them if you can!
On a rating scale from 0-5 with 5 being the highest I’m rating “Fix Up” a 6. If you don’t have a killer sound system, don’t even attempt to play it. It’s banging.
Black Star mixtape? So are we finally going to get another Black Star album? I guess better late than never
Jrocc is their dj now? What happen to Hi-Tek?

Thats whats up! Been wanting to hear new material from these two together for some time now and it looks like we’ll most likely get a blackstar project before detox ever sees the daylight.

Well, this never happened. smh.
Cats like Mos Def & Andre 3000 always acting “too creative” to drop another album.
